Sunday no play but fly day...

Don't give them any ideas.

Seriously? You can't see a clear distinction?

Are the pilots, crew, airport personnel working

the number of people taking a Sunday off for a game vs the team returning on a flight on Sunday is night/day different

HarlemCoug

So it's the number of people involved that makes it right or wrong, the golf

Great. So, I can go play golf alone, a shop alone, because

Are you suggesting a Sabbath travel ban?

StalwartBraveTrue

No. Merely responding to those who are

CoogsWin

I think the idea behind no Sunday play is to respect the sabbath when reasonable

As long as the jet engine doesn't ignite a fire, then it's okay with the law of

The important thing about Sunday's is the number of steps taken.

That's like asking why drive a car on Sunday?

How long can your stubble be and still be able to take a test at testing center?

a reminder that Mathew is Catholic. Seems he's just asking a question.

Oops. I already posted my indignant response.

Meh. It's not like my point was wrong. He just wasn't trolling apparently.

MormonThug

6/26/16 11:39am

I don't think that is correct

6/26/16 2:18pm

I don't know him - but hasn't he admitted that he's "Catholic Matt" ???

HarlemCoug

Yeah but he meant it ironically IIRC

Traveling anywhere for anything will often require legs on Sunday

BeyondTheMark

6/26/16 8:33am

This can't be serious. Why do some members insist on making things more

MormonThug

6/26/16 8:39am

It would be a Christlike gesture to relent on Sunday play.

So, compromise on what we believe to be a clear commandment from the Lord jus

Do members who play sports on Sunday have to repent?

Jesus made provisions for Sabbath-day observance that included tending to

You are correct, Jesus made no "commercial sporting event" exception.

Yes.

And what have they said? Don't do it.

If you're God, are you going to allow talented people who can help build your church to miss church regularly for

Lol, maybe, but that isn't why its a commandment

Dissenter

of course he needs us

Tortured leftist rationale.

It's not a crazy question. Prophets have spoken about not traveling on Sunday

My family regularly schedules travel on Sunday on purpose

Same boat. Sunday is a perfect day to travel.

Sunday play = Ox in mire.

brejol

6/26/16 10:25am

sunday play would destroy church attendance. No way God would approve something that would hurt attendance like that...

HarlemCoug

What about playing at 8pm?

I met an apostle when I got off a plane on a sunday

I apologize for all of the sarcastic resposnes. I don't think they realize you

If 65,000 people wanted to watch them get on a plane, then by all means.

For the non mormons here I believe this is a relevant question

LVCougarFan

it's called a spiritual hobby

Cougarealist

Man, I don't get why this got so much snark. Seems like a fair question to me.

Jay Rick

I don't this it is all that complicated. Life is about decisions and compromise.

MormonThug

I agree that life is all about compromises, but that's why it's complicated and

So it is so uncomplicated that your own house can't even agree on it?
