Description: Sunday laws have caused contention from Emperor Constantine of the Roman Empire to the latest computers and AI. Sunday laws consigned a man to the whipping post in Connecticut for "scandalously kissing" his wife on Sunday as well as nearly caused the arrest of President George Washington for riding his horse on that day. Dateline Sunday, U.S.A. is almost more relevant today than in 1967 when the book was written. The bottom line is that for centuries man's intolerance of his fellowmen has endeavored to harness the power of the state to enforce some religious observance. It is shocking that throughout our history, this great American nation, "conceived in liberty" and protected by an amendment guaranteeing separation of church and state, has never quite managed to unshackle itself from Sunday laws (Blue laws) received as a legacy from colonial clergy and statesmen. As we face critical issues in today's world that are endeavoring to curtail our important liberties, I hope this book will be help make sense out of these important topics.
