Point #2: America did have a Christian concept of right and wrong through the 1920s or so. That is an objective fact, whether you like it or not. And nobody's freedom was ever infringed by that fact.

So you did not see the blue laws and a restriction on business?

Okay folks... now that we've destroyed this poor schmuck's worldview in a page and a half of commentary, it's time to have some mercy on him and let him pick up the shattered pieces of his psyche without further abuse.

Before there were any blue laws business accepted the behavior voluntarily.

They were a restriction, but not a violation of rights.

I would not advocate their return. However, America would be better off if the nation took a single day for reflection and recreation rather than working seven days. This must be voluntary for it to be valuable, but it would be valuable.

Shalom.
