Many [[Christian]]s go to [[church]] on Sunday, the traditional day of worship and rest facilitated (but not established) by a decree of [[Constantine]] in the fourth century and later reflected as church law during the Middle Ages.<ref>Fahlbusch, E. (ed). "Sunday" in [http://books.google.com/books?id=lZUBZlth2qgC&lpg=PA229&dq=Sunday%20Worship%20%22Roman%20Catholic%22&pg=PA229#v=onepage&q=%22Sunday%20Worship%22%20%22Roman%20Catholic%22&f=false ''The Encyclopedia of Christianity''], Volume 5; Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing; Grand Rapids. Page 229, (2008)</ref> Christian children (and sometimes adults) often attend religious classes on Sundays, commonly referred to as [[Sunday School]]s. In some places, commercial enterprises such as [[bank]]s and [[store]]s, are closed. Some localities still have what are called [[blue law]]s that prevent people from working on Sunday.

Traditionally, [[Quaker]]s objected to the traditional names of the days because of their pagan derivation, and refer to Sunday as "First day," Monday as "Second day," and so forth. Modern Quakers use the usual names in daily life, but refer to Sunday as "First day" in any Quaker context (for example, religious education classes are called "First day school.")
