Sundays are Losing their Meaning, Warns Cardinal:



Cardinal Karl Lehmann, president of the German bishops' conference, confirmed the Church's position on Sunday work. "The celebration of Sunday is a necessity of human dignity, a protest against the commercialization of the person, and against enslavement by the world of work," he said.


Personally speaking, I wouldn't like to engage in any sort of work for profit on a Sunday (I take as dictum Isaiah 58:13-14 on this matter!).
