64. Some folks consider it rude to have religion injected into their day
And wishing someone a "blessed day" is certainly religious in nature, even if it isn't limited to a particular religion.

I don't think the people who say "Have a blessed day" are trying to drag me into church. But they are assuming that I share some of their religious beliefs (i.e., that there is something that is capable of providing a blessed day). And that's just rude. I don't go around wishing people to have a "Democrat day" or a "Gynecological afternoon". Why? Because it's rude. Weird, too, come to that.
