FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- A Northern California teacher says he doesn't want to hear a common courtesy in his classroom.

He's even lowering students' grades if they say "bless you" after someone sneezes.

Steve Cuckovich says the practice is disrespectful and disruptive. He's banned saying "bless you" in his high school health class in Vacaville.

He even knocked 25 points from one student's grade for saying the phrase in class.

Cuckovich says the policy has nothing to do with religion, but says the phrase is just a outdated practice and disrupts class time.

"When you sneezed in the old days, they thought you were dispelling evil spirits out of your body," Cuckovich said. "So they were saying, 'God bless you' for getting rid of evil spirits. But today, I said what you're doing doesn't really make any sense anymore."

After parents complained about students losing points for saying "bless you", Cuckovich says he decided to stop the practice.

However, the teacher says he will just find another way to discipline students for saying "bless you" in class.

BULLSHIT! It has everything to do with religion and COMMON COURTESY. This asshole has no business enforcing his prejudices upon his students and needs to be fired immediately if not sooner.

The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one.

meh.

christians used to torture and then burn people alive (if the torture didn't kill them first) for much less than this.

If this is based on religion, and I can see how it might be, then turnabout is fair play.
