Dunno, but their use of oil was based on a Bible verse and a vision from God.
I believe that's my hey. Hey!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Umm... so a group of college students on Ohio State University went around with supersoakers filled with oil, anointing as much of the university as they could in order to claim it for God.
Religion freaky.

Thanks, and thanks to all for your support. Without your pledges, we would not be able to spread the word of the Evils of Retinal Vein Occlusion. Or something.

"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "
What, were they out of flags?
I wonder if they would be able to agree who should be on the flags. Or what. Is God a stickfigure dude, or would they slap on a generic Happy!Jesus?

"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "
Ah, Lord Jesus. Article answered my question.
"declare the oil filled water guns holy"
giggles maddly
As we were yelling to the Lord the third water gun EXPLODED anointing the room and everyone in it.
Most people would take that as the Lord saying, "...idiots."
anoint us all, not by man but by his will in a super soaker!
It's like the Nun Bun, with freshly oiled grad students.
REVIVAL IS A COMMIN!
Oh. Hey, look, Ohio is a Holy Place after all. I supose this means the Ohio-istas aren't going to special hell with the rest of us Buffistas.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
From IMDB, unrelated to oil or religious conviction:
CBS, trying like the rest of the networks to figure out how to use the Internet advantageously, announced Monday that it will offer two episodes of Two and a Half Men and two episodes of How I Met Your Mother for free via the Yahoo! website. The webcasts are being "streamed" -- that is, they cannot be downloaded onto a PC or watched on portable video players. Moreover, they will only be available for viewing for one week. CBS execs said that the experiment was an effort to attract younger viewers who spend more time at PCs than older ones. One CBS exec told Daily Variety that this week was selected because many young people may have received personal computers for Christmas presents and are out of school for the holidays.
