If you're talking about the above, thanks for that confirmation.

Sunday, aka the first day of the week, was never your God's intended day
of rest. It was a work day, just like the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th day
of the week.

 JD>   The Jewish faith has the Sabbath, which is observed on Saturday.

The 7th day of the week, which was handed down to Adam and Eve and
passed on to all humanity (it says so, even in the catholic version of
the Old Testement.

By whose authority did they change the day of the Sabbath?

 JD> the same as the Jewish Religion has its choice.

Their's is not a choice, it's a commandment from their God to which they
obey.

He doesn't represent anyone, he's his own authority put into place by
other blasphemers.

However, since they had been indoctrinated for centuries by the RC church,
they were in the habit. Since the RC church forbade them to read the
bible, they didn't know the difference.

That they could have. However, read the above. That some christians
reverted to observing the Sabbath on the 7th day of the week means that
they found fault with the RCC's version.

 JD> They did not do so.

See above.
