Because it's a common phrase? It's certainly more polite than saying "Fuck!" I also say bless you when people sneeze because it's polite, not because I think I'm actually blessing them. I also call today "Thursday" despite not believing in Thor.
People who believe in gods are the ones who shouldn't be saying "Oh my god!" because it's blasphemy.
I had a manager who used to say "Oh ny life!"
