Paul's practicality makes a fine counterpoint to being too strict about which day is what:
> One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind. Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God; and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God ... You, then, why do you judge your brother or sister? Or why do you treat them with contempt? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat.
Romans 14. i'm not *against* Sunday obviously because it has been that way for a long time and works out just fine but it's not like you're thrown into the ninth circle if you pick another day, or pick it less frequently. i think discussing these laws in a legalistic manner like has been done in this thread isn't conductive to what i understand Christ taught - faith above law, washing the inside of the cup before the outside.
