Advocates support penalty for working on Sunday

I remember the days when all the shops except the local milk bar were closed on a Sunday. The newsagent and one of the bakeries opened for a couple of hours on a Sunday morning so people could get the paper and buy some bread. Many of my friends belonged to church-going families and it was widely accepted that Sunday was special and set aside for church-going. I remember people talking about keeping the sabbath but I had no idea what it meant. I was to learn later that Sunday, as the Sabbath, was a day of rest for the good of humans and a day for Christian religious observance.
