I am a cynical jade. The "blessed day" smacks of Christianity to me.
Call me what you will but I am nothing if not sincere when I curse you. (and, truly I say, I curse none) I just don't want a certain diety's blessing...so shoot me. or hang me...or make me do the "if she weighs the same as a duck..." thing. oh, I WISH i weighed the same as a duck.... eta: when jim uses 'cock' in a message, i know he REALLY means it. saying "have a blessed day" is like saying "have a good day!" cliche, cliche, cliche, and LAZY. Like, "I'm all saved and good and going to heaven and shit coz I blessed everyone!" yeah. some people don't NEED blessings. they need something else.

What I'm hearing in the rest of that is - "She is a Christian and therefore a hypocrite." I have prayed several times for your sake, Bri. Does that make me a hypocrite too?

When people say things like that I chalk it up to a communication style and move on. I have several "Born again" clients who repeatedly ask me about being saved and all that. I politely shrug it off and go about gently changing the subject. To each his own and all.
