H1N1-Proof Holy Water Dispenser

The terracotta dispenser functions like an automatic soap dispenser in public washrooms — a churchgoer waves his or her hand under a sensor and the machine spurts out holy water.

Catholics entering and leaving churches usually dip their hands into fonts full of holy water . But fear of contracting the H1N1 virus has led many not to dip their hands in the communal water font.
