I hope it's not Captain Trips." In my opinion, it is stupid to get caught up in sayings. A nicety is a nicety. Why knock politeness?

I agree, I have no problem with it. It doesn't even really carry a religious reference for most. In Spanish they say "salud" which means literally "health." It's kind of the same thing in English. It just annoys me when I'm having a particularly bad spell and people keep saying it.
