    Is there anything in the Bible that says you can’t use Gatorade in a baptism? What if it’s a baptismal emergency and there’s no water, but a six-pack of Gatorade Arctic Blitz?

      It’s got electrolytes. It’s what the body of Christ craves.

        Baptismal Brando. There’s gotta be a market for that.

      The Very Serious brand of Christianity that I came out of as a kid, the church of Christ, condemned people to hell if they weren’t fully immersed when baptized.

      You know, among other things like letting women talk or using instruments or during worship.

      So. Per my dad (priest) yeah, if you really wanted to.

      I didn’t ask the obvious follow up, BUT YES presumably one could bless the stream and do some golden baptisms.
