    Had to google that one. There actually is a teacher in Cali trying to do that. Unreal.

    A California teacher has banned students from saying “bless you” when someone sneezes in his class.

    Health teacher Steve Cuckovick says it has nothing to do with religious beliefs, he claims it becomes a disruption in class and is serious about enforcing it.

    He deducts 25 points from student’s grades every time someone breaks the “bless you” ban.
    "The blessing doesn't make any sense anymore. When you sneeze, in the old days, they thought you were dispelling evil spirits out of your body. So, they are saying god bless you for getting rid of the evil spirits. But today, what I said is what your doing doesn't make any sense anymore,” said Cuckovick.
    Parents and teachers are furious at the teacher’s actions. The principal of the California High School is not supporting the teacher in this ban.
