Sabbath desecration

"If once a man indulges in murder, very soon he comes to think little of robbing; and from robbing he comes next to drinking and sabbath-breaking, and from that to incivility and procrastination." --"On Murder Considered as one of the Fine Arts" (1827) by Thomas De Quincey |

Sabbath desecration is the failure to observe the Biblical Sabbath, and is usually considered a sin and a breach of a holy day in relation to Jewish Shabbat (Friday sunset to Saturday nightfall), the Sabbath in seventh-day churches and, in some other Christian traditions, the Lord's Day (Sunday, traditionally seen as the Sabbath in Christianity).
