post? I am NOT trying to put down christianity or any other religion. PLEASE don't take offense.
But, being atheist, I slightly irks me when people say 'God bless' all the time without inquiring whether I even believe in God. I know they mean well, but when 5/6 answers say it, I feel slightly put down. Am I the only one?

I read intentions. Many put it in there with actual intentions that they want good blessings for you. These people should not offend you. However, the ones that just do it because they know you are an atheist and that it will piss you off are rude and that should bother you.

We all believe different things and we express our beliefs in how we interact with one another. If someone says "God bless" and sincerely wants your life to have good blessings, you should just thank them for the courtesy.

This, however, is just my opinion.

hell no you are NOT the only one, it really bugs me when someone answers a question with it or will answer "god will take care of you" it really pisses me off.
If i want a religous BS answer I would have put it in the religion section.
Right ive had my wee rant now LOL
