How to reply when someone says 'have a blessed day'
Today like many days I been told have a blessed day by someone just being friendly. I'm not offended by it but a lot of times I want to say no thank you keep it to yourself or I don't need it but thanks. Any suggestions? Feel free to share any similar experiences

To me, if I were to react and "educate" them on my beliefs, I'd be a hypocrite because I'd be not much different than a religious person trying to convert me and save my soul. Take it at face value as a simple, kind gesture and simply say thank you in return.

I've replied: Why thank you. Had you not said that my day would've otherwise been crappy.

Consider being thankful that they aren't suggesting unilateral coitus. nice, polite well meant wishes are rare in what our world is becoming. Neitzche: "Whatever is done out of love takes place beyond good and evil."

My sentiments exactly
I usually say thanks and move on. If someone is being nice the words they choose to say essentially mean the same as "have a nice day". Its just that individuals way of conveying a nice thing. The world needs more nice things.

It doesn’t bother me at all, but then I’m not really a legitimate atheist.
Maybe the person just wants to convey warm wishes. No need to hurt their feelings.
