rain water becomes tap water and even bottled water which is worse than rain water so next time it rains stick your toung out!

rain water picks up chemicals that are in the air as it comes down. if there are toxic pollutants in there, it will get in your system. rain water can contain bacteria (depending on how you have collected it). i would not recommend drinking it unless you boil it.

tap water is filtered, monitored and treated. fluoride is also added to prevent tooth decay.

as long as it's not the first rain after a long hiatus, then u can stick ur tongue out and enjoy the water =) but it is a lil more polluted because of the air quality. if it's the first time it rains, dont, i believe it's called acid rain

no, think of all the impurities in the air, now think when the rain comes down ? get it?

Rain water comes from rivers,streams etc and hasnt been filtered etc so it isnt more healthier than tap water i would say anyway.But then who knows what goes into or ends up in tap water without us knowing

I would have to say that rain water is not healthier than tap water.
Pollutants go up into our atmosphere, and when it rains these pollutants can be in the rain drops.
Tap water goes through a filtering system before it comes to our taps.

ya it used to!! but, not now. With all the pollution in the environment, its becoming more poisonous than ever. So, dont start drinking rain water esp in cities where the air pollution is more.

Rain water contains acid and tap water contains chlorine both are not healthy for your.

rain water does need to be purified as does tap water. But you can drink un purified pee with no worries
