Some people said the sabbath day was saturday so does that mean you shouldn't work on saturday.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

If you want to follow a Sabbath, numbering the actual days is pretty arbitrary. *gasp* what if, during the various calendar changes over history, a day has been lost, and what we call "Sunday" is actually Monday?
Pick a day.
Pick a day.

I read somewhere that people used to worship the Sun and had a day for said worship. Could it be that the day of sun worship was named Sunday? As far as I know the Jewish observe Saturday as the sabbath. I wonder if it were changed during the the early church to make use of a day that was already being observed by other groups. Apparently this was done with Christmas, Easter, Halloween. Doesn't seem to be much of a strech.

Most of the days of the week as we know them have ancient pagan-esq origins adopted by the Romans and passed on to the Medieval world

I never work on Saturday.
Even when I'm at work on Saturday, I try to keep the amount of actual "work" to a minimum.
Today, the state is helping me at that by updating the database for one of the library collections, making it unaccessible. Working with that collection is most of what I do on Saturday, so I'm pretty much doing nothing for 9 hours today, but I have to be here to supervise the student aide.
