Religious observance or not, I think the idea of a weekend that everyone could broadly share in and enjoy would be a mark of a sane and humane society.

Exactly. Like, in France (which is obviously pretty secular) almost nothing is open on Sundays.

And religious feast days that almost no one observes. I’m afraid weekends are when a lucky minority relaxes and most people just go on struggling or working, often without rest. I bet the evangelical faith-and-work orgs & blogs (which I have some issues w/) have posts on this.

Oh thanks. I bet he’s good on this. There was a good
@KristolConvos that touched on the societal need for Sabbath, but I can’t pinpoint the link. It was one of the episodes with Professor Harvey Mansfield. Alright, time to unplug for a while! -
With Leon Kass maybe?

Technology makes you want to believe in the supernatural... You can just put your phone down and remain rational. That is an option too.

You can just turn off your computers without believing in invisible beings who control everything.
