re: Tennessee student suspended for saying "bless you" after sneeze

What religious belief did this student shove down another student's throat?

Can I ask a favor? Can we at least all start on common ground here?

Can we come to an agreement as to whether saying "Bless you" or "God bless you" is religious or not? Many here seem to argue it's only a saying and is no longer religious at all. Others argue (this girl specifically and many here) that this issue is about religious rights and start popping off about the Constitution.

Well...which is it?

I think if we can at least agree to the nature of the statement, then we can have an honest discussion. Until then, it's moving targets.

Is saying "Bless you" religious in nature...or not?
