sabbath prayers

We have noted that for some of your very many religions Sunday is the day marked out particularly for religious observance.

Why this should be is not quite clear to us, as those of you who wish to commune with your god surely will do so on more than one day each week.

The time seems long gone when those working for a living could only be sure of a break from their labours on those days set aside for churchgoing, but perhaps it suits your religious leaders to organise their lives so.

We were particularly interested to overhear one piece of religious radio programming from the UK today - featuring the Archbishop of Canterbury discussing his relationship with god and prayer. He seemed a man full of humility and love, tending rather to the quaker way of speaking with god, out of inner stillness.


For ourselves, we admit we do sometimes enjoy a bit of singing and dancing from those trying to catch our attention, just to liven things up on what can be something of a dull day you understand.
