God Bless You. And I have no idea why. We don't say it for any other bodily function that makes noise except a sneeze....now why is that??

I wouldn't say anything. I used to say "bless you", until I came to the realization that someone sneezing doesn't determine whether they will be, or already are, blessed.

Bless you. No particular reason why, just a habit I have not bothered to break and don't really intend to put forth any effort to try and break it. No one has ever seemed to be offended by it...in fact, most people smile and say thank you.

We used to say "terrify tissue?" when we were little, but I don't do that anymore. Now, I say nothing. Why? Most relies are based on superstition. Origins and legends Several possible origins are commonly given. The practice of blessing a sneeze, dating as far back as at least 77 AD, however, is far older than most specific explanations can account for. One explanation holds that the custom originally began as an actual blessing. Gregory I became Pope in 590 as an outbreak of the bubonic plague was reaching Rome. In hopes of fighting off the disease, he ordered unending prayer and parades of chanters through the streets. At the time, sneezing was thought to be an early symptom of the plague. The blessing ("God bless you!") became a common effort to halt the disease. A variant of the Pope Gregory I story places it with Pope Gregory VII, then tells the common (though untrue) story of "Ring Around the Rosey" being connected to the same plague. A legend holds that it was believed that the heart stops when you sneeze, and the phrase "bless you" is meant to ensure the return of life or to encourage your heart to continue beating. Another version says that people used to believe that your soul can be thrown from your body when you sneeze, that sneezing otherwise opened your body to invasion by the Devil or evil spirits, or that sneezing was your body's effort to force out an invading evil spirit. Thus, "bless you" or "God bless you" is used as a sort of shield against evil. Alternatively, it may be possible that the phrase began simply as a response for an event that wasn't well understood at the time. Another belief is that people used to see sneezing as a sign that God would answer your prayers or an omen of good fortune or good luck. In this case, "Bless you" would be in recognition of that luck. SOURCE: Wikipedia
