Can't be as crazy as the strain of Jewish religion that forbids ALL work
on the sabbath.


I watched a programme many years ago about the extraordinary lengths some
would go to comply with this. Even down to a special light switch which
was designed to comply with this.Some wont even take the bones out of
fish or filter water on the sabbath


and much closer to home - on the Island of Scalpay - there is a sign stating
that the children's playground is closed on Sunday. Can't have anyone -
even children - enjoying themselves on the Sabbath.
