Pope Says Sundays for God, Not Sports
You're going to think I've gone mad.
This non-Christian believes Sunday should be a day of rest. Has nothing to do with religion, but I think everyone needs one day where you don't have to do anything. I don't know that I believe there shouldn't be sports on Sunday, though. Sports are entertainment. Entertainment is okay on Sunday, according to the religion of Dawn.
The Religion of Dawn also dictates that stores are NOT open on Thanksgiving or Christmas. Those employees need to be at home with their families. What of the cafeterias, you ask, for those who don't have family or can't cook for themselves? The Religion of Dawn hasn't thought that through quite yet. Health care workers have to work, of course. But retail should not. That's crazy talk. Capitalism, baby. Both good and evil. Yin and yang. As with all things.
