No More Holy Water For Roman Catholic Church

Posted by on June 17th, 2009

Santa Maria Stella Maris church in Fiumicino, Italy has decided to stop offering holy water for members of the public to bless with, amid fears that the water may be being stolen for satanic purposes. Walter Palombi, Parish Priest told Italian Newspapers that:

“We have motives to believe that these are used for a ‘black mass’ (satanic mass). Usually the person who carries out these practices needs items that are ‘blessed’ as well as holy water.”

So no more holy water for the faithful Italians of Fiumicino. Satanic ritual scares became popular in Italy during the 1980’s and 90’s, more recently in 2004, fears of satanic ritual cults have sprung up again.

    Take that Satanists, you won't have the Roman Catholic Church to kick around any more.

    People could be stealing it and selling it. Many people would buy holy water. I think i could come up with a gallon or two if the price is right. LOL 🙂

    I can just picture them going around to different church's taking a little bit of holy water here and there, like meth heads getting ingredients from pharmacies
