Rain water is dirty. It isn't fit for drinking. Rain acts as the filtering system for Earth's air we breath. It removes all the dust particles and particulates that become airborne. And what rain doesn't remove, lightning does the rest. In fact, lightning is very effective for neutralizing radioactive isotopes and breaking down compound gases. There's a reason why air is mostly composed of Nitrogen (78%) and oxygen (21%). Lightning really helps in maintaining this ratio.
Once the rain falls it is filtered by the earth and by the time it reaches the permeable stratum overlaid by impermeable rock, the water is drinkable and safe. Excess rain water runs off into streams and rivers. On its journey to the sea, toxins are eaten, absorbed, broken down, and dispersed throughout the journey to the sea. The ocean provides the best cleaners the Earth has. What is not eaten or absorbed it is buried by the end life cycle of all organisms and shifting sands. There's a very good reason why one shouldn't eat crustaceans and bottom dwelling fish.
