Religious Conservatives Change the Names of the Days of the Week

This Fake News Just In!

Members of the Hyper Conservative Congregation voted today to reject the use of "fake" and "old mythical gods' names (with a lower case 'g')" for daily use of the names of the days.

Said one member, "We do not worship Thor, or the sun, or Odin, we will no longer call our days by their names!"

Starting today the HCC members are going to only use, what they claim to be the original, names of the days based on what was created during that day in the book of Genesis.

Even though they have made this bold move, they are not unanimous in the exact word for the name of each day, except for the very first day.

They Will No Longer Use:
Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Saturday
Sunday

They Are Deciding On:
Lightday
Expanseday Skyday Airday
Landday Groundday Earthday
Starday Sunday HeavenlyBodyDay MoreLightDay
Creatureday LivingThingDay AnimalKingdomDay EarlyAnimalDay
MoreAnimalsDay Humanday
GodRestsDay GodHadFinishedDay

General Reason:

Testament:

I did not like my name so I changed it. I like the first day of the week ... it is when we "go to meeting". Wednesday (a wed nest day?) makes me dizzy but the fourth day of the week does not.
In my town There is a Roman god up on the hill. I do not like that.
I think the all important (Fourth command) rest day is the only one that deserves a special name.

At some point I'll update the list, or offer another one, with Sunday being day 1, and Saturday being the 7th.

In the meantime you can use your imagination and update it yourself! :-)
