Default Sunday
Is Sunday the 7th day of the week or the first day of the week?

I say the seventh, but that's because I like having the weekend days nice and close together. Makes it look more... I dunno, 'weekendish' if it's two days together instead of one day at the beginning and end of the week.

Depends on your outlook.

If you look at from a business perspective it's the 7th

From maybe a christian it would (or should) be the 1st since the Sabath is Friday at Sunset to Saturday at Daybreak or something like that.

But Sunday is not the sabbath.

It is to Catholics... and I would say Christians in general (with a few exeptions).

According to my employer, work weeks end at 11:00 am Friday. So it's neither, by that yardstick. There are lots of different yardsticks. When I worked in Qatar last year, Sunday was the first day of the work week, Friday is the holy day, and Saturday is your running errands, etc., day. Which yardstick shall we use?

Good point Engyo... I guess it is a matter of culture or situation what day you believe comes "first" or "last" in a week.

Some religions (such as Seventh-Day Adventists and Seventh-Day Baptists) claim that Christians must not worship on Sunday but on Saturday, the Jewish Sabbath. They claim that, at some unnamed time after the apostolic age, the Church changed the day of worship from Saturday to Sunday.

But passages of Scripture such as Acts 20:7, 1 Corinthians 16:2, Colossians 2:16–17, and Revelation 1:10 indicate that, even during New Testament times, the Sabbath is no longer binding and that Christians are to worship on the Lord’s Day—Sunday—instead.

The early Church Fathers compared the observance of the Sabbath to the observance of the rite of circumcision, and from that they demonstrated that if the apostles abolished circumcision (cf. Gal. 5:1–6), so also the observance of the Sabbath must have been abolished.

The Letter of Barnabas
We keep the eighth day [Sunday] with joyfulness, the day also on which Jesus rose again from the dead (Letter of Barnabas 15:6–8 [A.D. 74]).

Saturday is the seventh day of the week, the day of the sabbath. Sunday is the first day. I believe Jewish people so to church (or is it synagogue?) on saturday, and christians typically go on sunday. Sunday was decided on when Constatine made it the official religion of Rome.
