That is not true. The Christians celebrated by meeting on the Lord's day, the day of His resurrection.

Indeed, ever wonder why that is? Why he rose on a Sunday that is, and why he died on a Friday?
Look into the older pagan religions that Christianity was trying to displace, and you will find your answer.
The facts JUMP right out at you if you take the time to ACTUALLY study those ancient religions and the time of their displacement by christianity. oh and the time of the ACTUAL writings of the new testament, when they were actually put to paper.
It will also open your eyes to all kinds of other possibilities as well, so maybe you don't want to go there.
Willful ignorance, at it's best.
