Here are a couple for ya right quick:

"Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I gave order to the churches of Galatia, so also do ye. Upon the first day of the week let each one of you lay by him in store, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come." - 1 Cor. 16:1-2

"When therefore ye assemble yourselves together, it is not possible to eat the Lord's supper: for in your eating each one taketh before other his own supper; and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
What, have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and put them to shame that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you? In this I praise you not."
- 1 Cor. 11:20-22

"let the women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but let them be in subjection, as also saith the law. And if they would learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home: for it is shameful for a woman to speak in the church." - 1 Cor. 14:34-35

Sorry....no cigar. Paul says nothing about Sunday in this passage...but he does reference the seventh day Sabbath:

2Κατὰ down/according to/as per (+acc), against (+gen) μίαν one (acc) { σαββάτων sabbaths (gen) ἕκαστος each (nom) ὑμῶν you(pl) (gen) παρ’ frοm beside (+acc,+gen,+dat) ἑαυτῷ self (dat) τιθέτω let-him/her/it-be-PLACE-ing! , θησαυρίζων while TREASURE UP-ing (nom) ὅ τι who-/whom-/whichever (nom|acc) { ἂν ever ♦ ἐὰν if-ever } εὐοδῶται he/she/it-should-be-being-PROSPER-ed , ἵνα so that / in order to /because μή not , ὅταν whenever ἔλθω I-should-COME , τότε then { λογίαι collections (nom|voc); eloquent ([Adj] nom|voc) ♦ λογεῖαι collections (nom|voc) } γίνωνται they-should-be-being-BECOME/HAPPEN-ed .

He is telling the folks to set aside offerings on one of the Sabbaths (μίαν σαββάτων) and when he comes by on his way to Jerusalem (for Pentecost) they'll be there waiting for him. Nothing is said about Sunday although most Catholic/Protestant translations would like you to believe that.

σαββάτων is Greek for Sabbaths (plural) and Paul is speaking about the seven "Counted" Sabbaths between Pesach and Shavuot [Leviticus 213:15-16]. It called the "Count of the Omer."

I'll address the rest of your passages in another post...... so as not to make them too long.

This is really a stretch.

Where in the world are we told to ignore the Sabbaths of Yahweh and begin worshiping on Sunday?

Maybe you didn't understand my original question. It was ....."Where in scripture are we told to worship on Sunday?"

I'll give you a hint. No where!
