kozmiq 70 Posted September 24, 2021 First, isn't Sunday supposed to be the Sabbath (not the first day). Secondly, shouldn't Saturday and Sunday be side by side. I'm sure someone here will provide an answer ... or make one up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Guy 1,400 Posted September 24, 2021 I always thought it was dumb too.......MONDAY starts the week, Sunday is a day of rest after the week has passed. My beef is, why can't it be the same time around the globe? and daylight savings, don't even get me started Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted September 25, 2021 Ancient Egyptians set the calendar we use. The first day of the week was the day of the sun, named for the sun god Ra. Romans kept the tradition. Christians then also kept the tradition, as on the first day, God said let there be light. So the first say is the sun day, or sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
