What is the point of the ant-bless you peeps? The way I see it it's just manners, a sort of "are you okay?" gesture.
Aargh!!!

I say absolutely nothing to strangers. The whole idea is god damn ridiculous. Should I say bless you when they fart too?
"Bless you sir, I don't want an evil spirit to sneak up your butthole. Your god's just douchy enough to label you a sodomite and send you to hell."
Sometimes I say nothing, but usually I say "Bless you". Just an old force of habit.
But if I think about it and it's a friend... If they're older I might yell "Incoming!" If they're younger I put on my best Ullapool accent and say "Ka-BOOOOOOM"
I say bless you... My boyfriend hates it though but what eva I do what I want!

The way I see it it's just manners, a sort of "are you okay?" gesture. As Cinjin points out, do you also say "Bless you" or "are you okay?" when someone farts? To be clear, I'm not an anti-bless you peep (I really don't care what you say and I don't especially mind people who say something when I sneeze), I just don't understand the need to say anything at all and because of that, I tend not to say anything for any bodily function that doesn't obviously indicate some level of distress.

Should I say bless you when they fart too? ^^-- exactly my point, and my question: Why acknowledge one bodily function with a nicety, but ignore others?

I'm not doing it because I'm afraid a demon will enter through my mouth, after all. The irony is that JWs don't say "bless you" when someone sneezes because they see it as a superstitious act. So when I was a believer in god I never said it, and now that I'm an atheist I do.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
