The days of the week are all dedicated to pagan Gods and Goddesses!

What do Bibel Christians say to such idolatry?

Should the days of the week not be re-named for them?

 

[Rumpel]

For example:


Sunday >>>> God of the Sun
Monday >>>> Goddess of the Moon

etc ..... etc ..... etc ....

 

[Rumpel]

Friday >>>> Goddess of love! :tink::tink::tink:

What do you want them to say?
The Christians moved Christ's Birthday from some time around late Jan to Dec 25 , the Pagan celebration of the Winter solstice in order to get them to all celebrate a holiday together and finally take over the pagan religion
There are a lot of things the pagans did that have become part of the Christian religion
have a nice afternoon

They should be dedicated to Douglass Adams.

Speak French. They're mostly named after planets, lundi, mardi, mercredi, jeudi, vendredi, samedi, dimanche.
English started out as a dialect of German, that's why the days are named after Thor and Woden and Fria, etc.

You do realize there are fake Christians who do not follow the Bible, right?

 

[lemmiwinx]

Every day should be Sunday. I mean where would we be without the Sun and all it's energetic warming photons?

Jesus عليه السلام was born in the summer.

It is not a question of English.

 

[Valery]

Do you think the weekdays are named similarly in all languages?

 

[Rumpel]

Do you think the weekdays are named similarly in all languages?

Not in all - but in many.

At least in English and German and French and Latin.
And of course then also in Italian and Spanish - and in Dutch and in Danish.

And that is quite a lot.

 

[Rumpel]

Every day should be Sunday. I mean where would we be without the Sun and all it's energetic warming photons?

Maybe you could also write something more sensible?
If all the days of the week had exactly the same name - then they would have in effect no name at all.

 

[Rumpel]

What do you want them to say?

I do not WANT anything.
I am only ASKING a question.

 

[Rumpel]

I find it idiotic to destroy a topic with such stupid Spam.

In the Germanic languages the names of the week follow the same idea as in the Roman languages.
Same Gods - only different names.

Venus = Freya etc ....

If Bible Christians had their say, every day would be a Jesus day.

 

[Rumpel]

They're mostly named after planets ....

And the planets got their names from pagan Gods and paga Goddesses.

The names of the days of the week in many languages are derived from the names of the classical planets in Hellenistic astrology, which were in turn named after contemporary deities, a system introduced by the Roman Empire during Late Antiquity. In some other languages, the days are named after corresponding deities of the regional culture ....

Germanic tradition

The Germanic peoples adapted the system introduced by the Romans by substituting the Germanic deities for the Roman ones (with the exception of Saturday) in a process known as interpretatio germanica. The date of the introduction of this system is not known exactly, but it must have happened later than AD 200 but before the introduction of Christianity during the 6th to 7th centuries, i.e., during the final phase or soon after the collapse of the Western Roman Empire.

I really do not understand you.

Maybe you are not interested in languages.

But this is no reason to mock this topic.

It is a pity to read such stupid comments like yours that destroy topics that are really worth while talking about.
