if i were in a room with those who now read my words,
and i sneezed,
how many would have God bless me???
or would you think it merely my body's reaction to an irritant in the nasal cavity???
and smile, and offer me a hanky???

superstition vs science...

i would have to say that i think superstition has the edge here...
my personal anecdote, my mother blesses me every time i sneeze, even if it is the fifth or sixth in row...
HA!!!
heck, i blessed my dog just this afternoon and began to consider the silliness...
i enlisted the help of my olde friend, and enemy, google,
and began searching out the myriad of superstitions associated with a sneeze...
good luck, bad luck, foretelling the future, revealing the truth, omg, so many ways humans scare themselves because the do not understand...

please feel free to rip me a new one, i know you will...

when a person sneezes you almost feel compelled to say something
I just smile

hey rookie, always love your work 😁 science is limited and superstitions are worse. the mind always has the answers, direct and unfiltered. One mind πŸ˜΅πŸ˜ƒβœŠπŸΌπŸ‘ŒπŸ˜€

"science is limited and superstitions are worse"

1. true and,
2. i'm not so sure

i was taught when doing science that i do not know it all,
i never will know it all,
i must be able to admit an error,
keep collecting data,
two other things i cannot remember,
and one other thing...

but superstitions allow us to follow a single line in the sand and have no need of deviation...

bah,
what do i know???
i am merely a rookie...

I don't like saying God bless you when someone sneezes.

What if God doesn't want to bless them? 🀷🏻‍♂️

It's a silly custom. May as well say "Hail Satan" every time someone farts.

Or maybe "May the fart be with you."
