God Bless You or Gesundheit when you sneeze? Or do you prefer no response at all?

Because I know that it is a hol over from when people thought that sneezing had something to do with demons and devils and evil spirits. so they would say Gesundheit(which means God Bless You).I prefer nothing because I know it is explained scientifically.

I like a good "bless you" for sneezes, or even for other reasons.

It doesn't matter to me but I do appreciate it when it is said I say it to other people all the time though.

no i like it when people go out of their way to make you feel a little good... we need more of it.
