Would someone please point out to me the passage in either The Old or The New
Testament where it is specifically mentioned that The Lord rested on a
*Sunday*? As all Christians, Jews, etc. know, the original sabbath was what
we now call Saturday. This is, indeed still respected by Jews. The reason
Christians use Sunday is to commemerate the New Covenant, as Jesus rose on
the third day, Good Friday being the first day. This should be obvious to
anyone with a sincere interest in The Bible.
		Please take Christmas seriously this year...
