Just before a funeral, I would take the top off the big container of holy water, and take the top off the aspergillium, and dunk it in to fill it. My deacon told me not to do that, because lots of people drink Holy Water. It's the only time in my life I've ever heard of people drinking Holy Water. I still agree with you that it's NOT a Catholic practice--even if people do it.

Oh my goodness. They take the top off the tank and stick their faces in? Or they put their mouths on the spigot? Or... what DO they do? Surely not suck holy water out of the aspergillium?!

I'll tell you one thing. I'm older than you are, Arthur, and I have never seen any of this done. You sure these people aren't into the ol' vodou?
