About This Book

A sequence of essays, editorials, replies, and rejoinders records a public debate over a proposed constitutional amendment to recognize God and Christian principles and to mandate Sunday observance. The religious author argues from Scripture and religious liberty against statutory enforcement of a Sunday Sabbath and warns of dangers to conscience and church-state separation; the editor defends first-day observance and legal recognition. The volume collects arguments on scriptural, legal, and civic grounds and includes an index of points discussed.
