The fact that there is among a fact that if God did not exist question, people define this as nature to that of the big bang which I think is okay to the fact of they try everything by science and history to rip open a fabric of time they cannot touch or trace for any such matter.

Let their children grow up happy! May their children grow up happy! The usage of may in this sense is not restricted to prayers, although one could say that it's formal, if not pompous, in modern usage. But why do we use "May" at the beginning of the sentence? Apparently, it doesn't make the sentence a question but more polite and respectful towards the God maybe? I cannot tell I heard this structure in any other sentence but religious ones

For many people, saying "Bless you" or "Gesundheit" following someone else's sneeze is a conditioned response or reflexive action. The German blessing, Gesundheit, literally means "May you be called healthy," and most likely entered the American vernacular following the immigration of the Pennsylvania Dutch and other German populations
33 Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses and Aaron and the whole assembly, 34 and they kept him in custody, because it was not clear what should be done to him. You need to square your beliefs with the evidence and admit that professing faith in impossible things (immaculate conception, resurrection, assorted miracles, etc.) is not the hallmark of an intelligent adult
The practice of blessing a sneeze, dating as far back as at least 77 AD, however, is far older than most specific explanations can account for.One explanation holds that the custom originally began as an actual blessing. Later on, sneezing was always accompanied by some religious expression, such as God bless you!" posted on a forum about the term God Bless you by bud85348
And, verse 12, of chapter 12, says, On the next day the great multitude who had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem Now, just when did this happen? When did Jesus arrive in Jerusalem and when did the crucifixion to come take place? For reasons I will show in a moment, I want to deal with the problem of chronology today.

The Straight Dope: Why do we say "God bless you" after a sneeze?
When someone sneezes, say "God bless you and may the devil miss you." When you sneeze your soul tries to escape and saying "God bless you" crams it back in (said by Millhouse in an episode of The Simpsons). That way, all those germs won't be on your hands when you touch the countless things you're going to touch in the course of the day (don't tell us; we don't want to know)
Numbers 6:23 "Tell Aaron and his sons, 'This is how you are to bless the Israelites. Say to them:
Aaron and his sons that succeeded him in all after generations, being the persons that were in a public manner to bless the people of Israel, they are particularly addressed, see Deuteronomy 10:8, saying, on this wise ye shall bless the children of Israel; in such manner and with such words as after expressed; standing upon an eminence, lifting up their hands on high, spreading out their fingers, and raising their voices, and pronouncing the blessing in the Hebrew language, in the name of Jehovah, with their face towards the people; all which, according to the Jewish writers (d), were to be strictly observed: saying unto them; as follows. And this act of blessing was far from being a mere expression of good will, or from being a simple prayer; for" without all contradiction the less is blessed of the greater" (Hebrews 7:7), i.e., the blessing must be given by one who stands nearer to God to one who stands less near
