Didn't the two sort of go hand in hand? The society produced the oral traditions and the corresponding celebrations concurrently over time?

No point having the sabbath without the creation myth, and no point having the creation myth without the sabbath.

Note that Genesis has two creation myths, only one of which is by day (the first one, in Genesis 1).

The Blue Laws were enacted to get the drunken Irishmen to go to Mass.

Yeah, let's look it up.

Seems like blue laws started with Constantine (not many Irish in Rome), and were heavily enacted in the American colonies to get drunken Englishmen to go to church. And in Canada, drunken French.

I would say that the oldest blue law is in the Ten Commandments.

It was enacted to get drunken Israelites time to sober up in peace.

I read Peter Hamill's article on it, that's where I got it from. And it's in regards to NYC

Pete Hamill did an article on it when the law was first being looked at to revoke.
