NOTE: A consensus is rapidly building in favor of a national Sunday law. This post is another case in point.
On the internet a multiple part article is currently in publication, in which the author calls for the United States to return to its religious foundation. Wanting to observe email etiquette, I am not divulging the author's name or the title of his article. I wrote to the author to inquire what his view would be of the enforcement of Sunday as a national day of rest and received a prompt reply, our exchange below:
My inquiry:
Some, such as Judy Shulevitz, in her new book, The Sabbath World, argue that enforcing Sunday as a national day of rest would greatly increase the morals and cohesiveness of society. May I ask you what your views would be of such a law?
The author's reply:
In times past, when our nation was beginning to establish herself, Sunday was a national day of rest. Most went to church and those services were 4-6 [hours] long. When the nation as a whole participated we remained focused on our Biblical roots and morals. Yes I do believe that we would benefit greatly from observing Sunday as a national day of rest.
