Why do Mormon's have Sunday as their Sabbath?

I was agreeing with you, Themis, not trying to insult you. Heaving at a gnat was as expression used by Christ which meant just what you were saying, meaning that the results would not be worth the effort. The reason that I brought that up that topic was for the minority of Christians who claim that the LDS are wrong for worshiping on Sunday.

Their criticism is usually thrown at the rest of Christianity as well. I have not seen any here make this criticism.

The Jewish Sabbath is traditionally from sundown on Friday to Sundown on Saturday. This is followed by stomping on glass, hollering "Opa" while downing shots of Retsina, followed by the running of the bulls on Saturday night. Sunday at 10 AM begins a brisk day in the diamond market.

Emperor Constantine in order to concatenate the number of holidays, switched the celebration of Shabat to Sunday, in order to run concurrently with Sol Invicta honoring the sun god Mithra.

No big deal, since many Christians already celebrated Sunday as "the Lord's Day". They also switched the running of the bulls to Spain, leaving many ticked off Etruscans, Minoans and Orthodox Jews.

Hope that helps.
