Some ministers say it is a relic of Jewish law and doesn't apply now; others say Sunday is now the day of no-work (blue laws usually refer to Sunday), while the Seventh-Day Adventists keep Saturday as the Sabbath. I have heard that Seventh Day Adventists have a life-span that is ~10 years longer than the average person. I can't verify this, but if it is true, could it be related to their religious beliefs (like a reward for correct Sabbeth observance?) Does anyone out there have any facts (or opinions) as to who is correct? decvax!allegra!pyuxqq!games ihnp4!pyuxqq!games mhtsa!pyuxqq!games cbosgd!pyuxqq!games
