The definition of "work" here is the question. I don't think spending 55 hours in front of a computer, under fluorescent lights and breathing recycled air, is what the ancients had in mind.

No, the ancients never said anything about working a certain amount of time each week at all. Dude just made up some numbers and said God said it.

Well, to me it's made-up shit built upon made-up shit by some stupid shit.

Yes, and to a sadly large number of others, that's "religion", which they take so seriously they'd happily kill others to defend their makebeliefs.
