Does Chick-Fil-A open on Sundays?
Because if they do, they are sinning against one of the Ten Commandments, obviously a pretty serious transgression.
Deuteronomy 5:
12 “Observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy, as the Lord your God has commanded you. 13 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 14 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your ox, your donkey or any of your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns, so that your male and female servants may rest, as you do. 15 Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and that the Lord your God brought you out of there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm. Therefore the Lord your God has commanded you to observe the Sabbath day.

26. But, but the new Testament supersceded the Jewish one
I am paraphrasing here. Why it is observed on Sunday and not on Friday to Saturday... and not even sundown to sundown.
I used to have long and fun discussions with a friend of mine who was studying to become a Jesuit... lost track of him.

30. It is not in the new testament
It is church doctrine, again going back to the early church... and it had to do with Jews NOT accepting the Church. (this led to long into the night talks as you can imagine)
But you are correct... doing it on Sunday goes to Constantine, because it was the day off in Rome and Constantine adopted the upstart religion as the state religion, so he needed to adapt it to old ways... so a few things in the new doctrine go back to Greece.

32. Rome.
Constantine was the Roman emperor.
That poor DUmmy probably looked for hours trying to find that passage. :rotf:

Has anyone asked the Hobby Lobby owner how they feel about gay marriage yet? Our Hobby Lobby is closed on Sundays. Just curious...
Ours is also. I think they are all closed on sunday. Maybe the DUmmies should just boycot all businesses that are closed on Sunday.
No doubt, unless their bible had pictures, but it's very hard for them to color inside the lines. :lmao:
Every Sunday, I boycott businesses that aren't open on Sunday. :-)

Hobby Lobby even plays gospel music over the store sound system. Their religious viewpoints are not a secret.
Do they really? I have never paid much attention to that at all. I'm too busy looking at all the cute stuff there.

Yeah, they really do. It may not be exclusively Christian music, but it's mixed in there.
I'll go into Hobby Lobby for some Halloween & Thanksgiving decor next month. I'll pay attention to the music for once. I'm not used to hearing music in stores anymore.
I just found one not 6 miles from me! Either my wife or I will have to make a trip there soon.

Auto dealerships in my area of N. Central Fla are likewise closed.
What are their views re gay marriage.
