Actually, the origin of "God bless you" when some sneezes is from the Black(dark?) Plague where when a people sneezed it was usually a sign he was infected and therefore the pope at that time ordered to tell every one who sneezes God bless you because he may die very soon.

Nothing like School Research projects in order to get useless information I always said :)
