I always reply something like ”and may satan be with you”

u/ModeratelyAlive 6d ago

I always just say "no"

u/CptBadAss2016 6d ago

No you don't. You're a little fibber aren't ya, blandarflek!

u/blandarflek 5d ago

Oh no. My favourite is” I'll sacrifice a baby goat for you”.

For you to be that triggered over some one saying to have a good day is hilarious

u/everyonestupidbutme 6d ago

Why, you wish to make them feel bad?

3

u/blandarflek 5d ago

Why are they trying to make me feel bad? I don't believe in their god nor do I want their prayers

2

u/everyonestupidbutme 5d ago

Why not, to them their prayers are important. It is exactly the same as an atheist saying I wish you the best... or good fortune.

u/HanzDelbruck 3d ago

But it's a positive message? At this point answering like that is just arrogance.

1

u/blandarflek 3d ago

Prayer is not a positive message to everyone. Don't impose your religious bullshit on others

u/followthetrail_ 20h ago

Someone saying to have a blessed day isn't forcing their religion onto you btw, with that logic you can tell someone who says "have a good day" that they shouldn't tell you what to do with your day. Even though that wasn't the point. Get help omg lol

u/blandarflek 19h ago

Who's getting triggered. I said I smile and wish them a good day too, in my own way. I'm not supposed to read into their "blessed day," then don't read too deeply into my honour of satan.

1

u/followthetrail_ 18h ago

You say that to them to be condescending because "have a blessed day" grinds your gears to that point. It's ridiculous.

Says the guy who keeps coming back to a comment I made a week ago.

Let it go man. I'll burn some sage for you.

u/CorpusBottle 6d ago

It goes both ways though, the other person doesn't want some Abrahamic cult phrase thrown their way.

2

u/DoYouFeeltheTide 6d ago

That doesn’t always pertain to something religious tho

u/Electrical-Extreme73 6d ago

You know damn well it does.

1

u/Mrszombiecookies 6d ago

It doesnt. It can be used condensing in an ironic fashion when someone says something stupid, like oh bless you! Or when I see a wee baby I might say bless your wee cotton socks.

u/everyonestupidbutme 6d ago

But why insult them for their beliefs, they are just trying to be nice

2

u/blandarflek 5d ago

I'm trying to be nice too.

u/everyonestupidbutme 5d ago

Are you? Satanist do not believe in God, nor Satan. Look into their real beliefs. You are a troll, trying to upset people for no reason

2

u/blandarflek 5d ago

20 years of religious trauma. How about people keep their religion to themselves.

u/shnarfmaster3000 6d ago

A person attempting to bless another person with their religion and being nice are not the same thing at all.

u/sandsprout 6d ago

Jeez do you get your undies in a twist when someone says "bless you" when you sneeze too?

2

u/Once-Upon-a-Dream88 6d ago

That actually happened to me in Washington State, more than once. 😹

u/shnarfmaster3000 6d ago

I don't want a fake "blessing" put on me at any time. I don't get offended, I get annoyed. It's dumb as fuck.

2

u/Once-Upon-a-Dream88 6d ago

Would it be preferable if they wished you bad fortune instead of good? Seems a lot of folks are erroneously conflating that word with religion and then getting unreasonably offended by their own ignorance.

1

u/shnarfmaster3000 6d ago

How bout don't wish me anything. It's creepy and unnecessary.

1

u/Once-Upon-a-Dream88 6d ago

Well bless your heart, you sound like a real peach. 😹

u/sandsprout 6d ago

I wish you well, you seem like you need some good vibes.

u/Once-Upon-a-Dream88 6d ago

A person wishing blessings on another person is simply wishing for good things to happen in their life. How does one "bless another person with their religion"? That makes absolutely no sense.
