I mean, I'm not a theologist or anything, but based on other precedents, if someone was dying and wanted to be baptized at the last second, and no source of water could be arranged on time, the Gatorade baptism would probably be accepted by the Catholic church.

Transubstantiation of Gatorade into Holy Water doesn't even sound that outrageous when priests claim to transubstantiate wine to blood on a daily basis.

This seems to mean that priests can theoretically make any liquid holy, thereby making holy Gatorade.

They've got holy water and holy wine. Why not holy beer.

"This is my piss, drink of it and be holy"

I just checked and it seems that unfortunately not. At least catholic Priests are only allowed to bless "true water", which is usually understood to mean that nothing was purposely added to it (with the exception of certain salts for rituals like exorcism).

So is tap water okay, or only where it isn't fluoridated? What about sea water ? Heavy water ? Rain water ?

It needs to be demineralized and deionized to be able to accept god and become holy. God is quite picky
