Lol. I am going to use that from now on whenever I hear "god bless you" (in a non-nice way) or "i'll pray for you" or "you'll burn in hell, atheist scum."
That rocks.

I have only said it to christians where it is in answer to a question asked by a christian, if you don't like the fact we say it to christians in our answers and that people of other faiths have to read it, then you are gonna have to get over it, i would not mind if other faiths used terms like that but for their faith it would not bother me because it is just a nice thing to say, nothing to get annoyed about. But if you mean you are annoyed by people saying it to other faiths well, i don't do that.

I would much prefer it.
Or just "have a nice day".
The only person that says that to me is my Grandma.
What I hate is "Bless your cotton socks"
That is annoying when all the family is about. I am an adult.

I have never said "God bless you" unless I was specifically trying to encourage someone and was hoping for actual heavenly blessings upon them. Needless to say, I dont believe in saying "God bless you" every time someone sneezes. It devalues the motivation.

I love star wars! What does that have to do with God bless you? Your dollar says to trust God!

I think they should say thank you graciously when a person says "God Bless you", because, even if it means nothing to you, it means a lot to the person saying it and they mean it sincerely.
God Bless you, June

If it annoys you that someone clueless of your hatred of that particular saying has chosen to offer you a friendly axiom than I trust you have unresolved anger issues that goes well beyond religion

Christians don't care how annoying they are. I think they get points for it in Sunday School.

I would never say, "God bless you" to YOU.
Never fear.
