I'm not a Christian or any other "Person of the Book" myself.  But doesn't
Genesis have God labouring for six days making everything, then taking a day
off to rest? To precis a bit, "On the First Day he made this, on The Second
he made that, on the Third, he made the other", and so on.



It's my understanding that according to the Bible we get Sunday off, because
God did; So surely our "day of rest" is logically the last day of the week,
not the first? (The first being used for creating universes, or serving at
supermarket counters, depending on your abilities and responsibility level).
Oh, and getting resurrected; that supposedly happened on Monday (three days
after dying) not a Sunday.
