Holy water
Holy water is water that has been blessed by a member of the clergy or a religious figure. The use for cleansing prior to a baptism and spiritual cleansing is common in several religions, from Christianity to Sikhism. The use of holy water as a sacramental for protection against evil is common among Anglicans and Roman Catholics.〔Henry Theiler, 2003 ''Holy Water and Its Significance for Catholics'' ISBN 0-7661-7553-7 pp 13–15〕 == In Christianity ==
In Catholicism, Anglicanism, Eastern Orthodoxy, Oriental Orthodoxy and some other churches, holy water is water that has been sanctified by a priest for the purpose of baptism, the blessing of persons, places, and objects, or as a means of repelling evil.〔Chambers's encyclopædia, page 394, Published by Lippincott & Co (1870)〕〔Nathaniel Altman, 2002 ''Sacred water: the spiritual source of life'' ISBN 1-58768-013-0 pp 130–133〕
