Why do you say "God bless" and thus interfere the free-will and also try to belittle other beliefs who don't want to believe in your god or be blessed by him?

interfere the free will??? how does saying god bless to someone interfere with their free will???? that makes no sense at all... If I say goodbye to you does that interfere with your free will?
I never belittle anyone's beliefs and I'm Christian, people say God bless to be friendly not try to save you, take it as you will. The fact that it offends you so much says alot about you though.

God Bless means let God bless you so, God is the only true religion, we only be little as you say because they are not true, or God is true, his blessings are true! One of the ten commandments are not to worship or believe in any other God so we don't, so you have the choice or free will to choose but we try to get you to come a be loved and blessed and saved by our God!

Does telling you to have a good day interfere with your free will? You see that is ridiculous. It's just as ridiculous to claim that saying "God Bless" interferes with your free will. It is a positive and loving comment, so I don't understand your anger. And if you don't believe in God, then why are you offended by His name?

Whether or not you believe in Jesus Christ, God the Father or the Holy Spirit you are still Blessed by Him. It says in Scripture that the rain falls on the good as well as the wicked. It also says that God in Patient and do not wish any to perish, so the Holy Spirit is continually searching the world for those who would be His. So, please receive the "God Bless" in a spirit of kindness and understanding.

If you take that position when someone says that to you... that's your problem... when a Christian or a Jew says God bless you they are wishing the best for you... If you take it that way... then you've got a lot of anger that you need to deal with and maybe you need the blessing more than you think you do.

because the more people they have in there church the more money the will get. thats why they pass the collection plate around like a million times. and thats how god bless every last one of them thats give them a dollar or two. as much money thats put in that plate they could end world hunger.

Because that is something that has been handed down through the years of Christianity. Why does it bother you? Does the word GOD scare you? If not then don't worry about it.
Oh........God Bless You!!!

I've never heard that Christians are to say, "God Bless." Where do you find that teaching?

If someone asks you that, but you didn't want to be blessed, just ignore it. We say that because we want Him to blesse you. Plain and simple, caring.
