Why are hospitals open on sundays? I really wonder. And train stations. And restaurants.

It’s not 1965. Then everything was closed. Now, Chik Fil A is one of the few places closed on Sunday. One of our tire places is also closed. Other than that, can’t think of anybody else unless it’s a manufacturing place and some of them never close.

Businesses are closed on Sundays to allow their workers to worship at church. The day of rest is actually the Shabbat or Sabbath and is the final day of the week, Saturday, and mirror's the creation week where God "ceased creating".

Christians generally don't follow the Shabbat as the early church father's set a precedence to worship on the first day of the week which was the day that Jesus rose from the grave.

Churches are open on Sundays to provide a place for people to come together to worship and to provide a sense of community. While churches do employ people, the main purpose of being open on Sundays is to provide a spiritual and communal experience for those who attend. Additionally, many churches offer volunteer opportunities for those who want to give back to their community.

Great question! Churches are open on Sundays to provide a place for people to come together, connect with each other and build strong relationships, as well as to provide spiritual guidance and support. Plus, since most people have the day off, it's a great time for them to come together in fellowship.

This is a friendly reminder to read our rules.

Who's magically filling your tank when you're not looking? Combustible engines aren't some magical force, they're a well known human advancement. I feel like even the layman knows in principal that pistons compress petrol into a gas, then ignite that gas with a spark plug causing a tiny explosion forcing the piston back down, generating movement. Obviously as things get burned up they change chemical composition and can no longer be used for the original purpose, it's a pretty fundamental understanding. When you put a log into a fire, you can't use that log infinitely, you have to keep adding fuel to the fire.

Assuming they care enough to look at the dashboard

But they must be noticing the fuel gauge at some point, aren't they ?

With that logic, unless you have starved to death, you don't know that you need food to survive.

The sun has never burnt out, but I know I'm fucked if it does.

I've never run out of gas, but I know cars need it because I know how internal combustion engines work and I fix them for a living.
