A simple little " God Bless you " has you this perplexed ? At your age you don't know the correct response ?
Do you get this perplexed when you sneeze and a stranger utters those dreadful words ?
If a simple thank you is beyond your scope of politeness, then a simple nod or smile would do just fine. Mutter F you under your breath if it makes you feel better. The man was simply being kind to you and you know it. Yet cuz he uttered the " G " word you want to cut him down.

Mike, you need to pick your battles and this one just ain't worth it. A wise woman once told me: You have a limited amount of emotional currency, spend it wisely.

how about saying "i'm a realist". atheist is such a negative term and not accurate



Well, if you are going for accuracy, then you should have said "I am sorry, but I am a very angry person and I don't want your well wishes."

There is a set protocol for that, it involves putting something over your face to stop flying phlegm.

Mickey it is truly sad when someone says something positive to you and you rant about it and turn it into an ugly, negative experience.  Are you ever positive about anything in your life?  Can you not appreciate the intent without being displeased over his use of words?  Not everyone shares your beliefs, why should they? And why are you so offended by the word God?  And why do you think that Atheism is negative?  I find nothing at all negative about Atheism, as long as people are able to coexist with their beliefs, it makes the world diverse and interesting.  Can I have a SHEESH!

A strange thing happened to me today. i was getting Donna out of the van (she's in a wheelchair and the van has a mechanical lift) at Burger King. Some guy we did not know, who was driving out of the parking lot, stopped behind us and called out his passenger window "God bless you". i said, (under my breath) "God doesn't want to bless me and i don't need it either".

what should one say or do in such a situation?




I would have smiled and said thank you. It's not so much about the belief in god that matters, but the fact that another human being appreciated what you were doing and wanted to commend you for it and wish the best for you.

Mike is just thinking out loud.   It is no big deal.  We all have similar episodes at some point in life.

Yeah well, it's a big deal if he hates 1/7 of his life. That's an awful lot of time to spend hating.

I wonder if he'd have been pissed off if it were me back there and I had said, "Zeus bless you."

I'd be scared to get a blessing from that dude.

I don't understand what the big deal is, honestly.  I grew up in Texas, and perhaps that's shaped my views, but a "God bless you" here and there won't kill you.  You're not going to burst into flames.  Just accept it, smile, even say, "thank you" and go on your way into Burger King or wherever you are. 

Hell, I get little Jesus loves you pamphlets all of the time from customers.  I smile graciously, say thank you, and after they leave I either read it or chuck it in the trash. 

Now, if they'd said something like, "You're going to burn in hell you nasty heathen!" then I'd have gotten pissed off and probably responded, because at that point, they're being rude and disrespectful instead of just careless.

Maybe the guy should have said, sucks to be you instead. The OP might have felt better.
