Thus "gathering day" is often regarded as the weekly day of rest, so the following day, Saturday, is often regarded as the first day of the work week yaum al-jumu`a يوم الجُمُعَة (gathering day - Friday)
The Seventh-day Adventist (abbreviated "Adventist"[3]) Church is a Christian denomination which is distinguished mainly by its observance of Saturday,[4] the original seventh day of the Judeo-Christian week, as the Sabbath.
There is a large body of civil legislation on the Sunday rest side by side with the ecclesiastical. It begins with an Edict of Constantine, the first Christian emperor, who forbade judges to sit and townspeople to work on Sunday. He made an exception in favour of agriculture.

Why settle for one day off when you can have three? Who needs one religion when you can believe in whatever you want whenever you want? Take the best from all of ‘em, or none at all, and make it work for you!
if god does exist, then religion is not a game. its not an a la carte special. religion isnt just about ¨what works for you¨. its worship.
