Default Secular Sunday

Should we have one day a week where there are no new threads relating to religion or religious social structures.

We could make it on a Sunday

Not judging, just saying

The content of your post is somewhat ironic.

No we shouldn't.

But only if it goes in the new 'Religion Only' forum.

Otherwise, yes

Why should we have to go along with that? You are not in charge of this forum.

A bit abrupt for your usual gentlemanly manner Les!

I think Trout was only posing a question in his usual tongue in cheek way

And the Jewish equivalent is a Saturday (well until nightfall), so that'll be Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Oh, and I don't follow any particular religion, so I vote as a 'non-follower', to have Thursday off as it's also my day off work.
