Though I do not think that a benevolent God would see resting on Sunday as a hell-worthy offence, it does specifically say the Sabbath. If such a clear cut commandment is open to interpretation why is there so much of the bible that is not open to similar interpretations?
Even Jesus did not break the commandment. I don't see how Christians can say that Saturday is simply important but Sunday can somehow be equally important {or even superior}. This interpretation of one of the ten commandments is something I have never understood about the vast majority of Christian believers.
My criticism is not that they rest on Sunday, its that most do not use the same measuring stick when talking about the rest of the bible.
