Little Known Facts about the American Revolutionary War

This is an interesting page, I found this link at The Scobleizer Weblog. I know it was more appropriate a couple of days ago but it's still a good read.

Linux

I also saw this link to an interview with Linus Torvalds, creator of the Linux operating system. I've always liked Linux but just don't have time to fiddle with my computer and Linux was always high maintenance.

Sunday

"The European Union has set up the policy that every member-state must have one day of rest during the week."

I didn't know it was a law. Interesting in that the new European Constitution completely ignores religion. I could be wrong, but that is my understanding.

"In Italy, the designation of Sunday as a "day of rest" was first set in 1993. That policy was changed in 2000, however, when-- in order to grant more flexibility for employers-- the nation required only that every employer produce workers with a 24-hour rest period each week. But by August 2003, under the new European policy, Italy will again be required to fix a certain "day of rest."

"In an interview with the daily Corriere della Sera, Bishop Giancarlo Bregantini-- who heads a committee dealing with social issues for the Italian bishops' conference-- remarked that attitudes on the observance of the Sabbath are "already bad enough" without a change in national policy. He said that any move away from the Sunday rest would be "a perverse act." And Cardinal Pio Laghi, the former prefect of the Congregation for Catholic Education, asked La Repubblica: "How can you overlook the fact that Sunday is a special day for millions of Europeans?"

It may wind up being Sunday for all the European states. That's significant in light of biblical prophecy, the sign or mark of God being the Sabbath, the mark of the beast being Sunday observance, a counterfeit of God's Sabbath. Of course, many would argue that point but time will tell. Why Keep Saturday for Sunday?
