    My question is because the Julian calendar lost a day every 128 years, then by 1582 the calendar would be off by 12 days. But the Gregorian only moved up 10 days. So aren’t we technically 2 days off from the Solar calendar?

    The Julian calender was based on the ancient Kemet (Egyptian) Calender which was more organised. 12 months of 30 days + 5 days at the end of the year.
    The Julian calender messed up the number of the days of the month!!!
    How come February is 28 days?!!!
    Some months are 30 days and the others are 31, for no specific reason!!!
    The year start from mid Winter!!! Why???

    When I was a child I observed xmas on the 25th December in the gregorian calendar but also the 25th December in the julian calendar which is currently (until 2099) 13 days behind the gregorian calendar so from the years 1901 to 2099 January 7th in the gregorian calendar is December 25th julian calendar. So I got gifts on two days 13 days apart.

    Thanks for the detailed explanation on this inter-calendar anomaly! By the way, this also explains why the two Russian revolutions of 1917 are called the "February Revolution" and the "October Revolution" (based on the Julian months), despite taking place in March and November on the Gregorian calendar.
    Also, I find it particularly strange that the Russian Orthodox Church is still holding on to the Julian calendar, even when all of the civil authorities (except maybe a few stragglers with completely different calendars), including in Russia itself, adopted the Gregorian calendar! At least you can have Christmas twice!

  • @jeremiahcastro9700
    @jeremiahcastro9700 2 года назад

    Let me get this straight...after the Gregorian reform we still fall behind the solar year? What actually was corrected if it still falls behind?

    • @ForwardMan3001
      @ForwardMan3001 Год назад

      I'll take this as a serious question.
      It's a matter of degree.
      As something roughly TWENTY-SIX times better than the Julian for adhering to the Solstices and Equinoxes, it only requires a further adjustment by one day every THIRTY-TWO centuries, plus about one half!
      It so happens that the skipping of leap year days is in the same direction as Julian to current Gregorian. Take a leap year day out over a period of time, rather than add any.

    • @jeremiahcastro9700
      @jeremiahcastro9700 Год назад

      @@ForwardMan3001 And the million dollar question that no one has answered is, *"How long is the true solar year exactly?"*
      _Solar Calendars_
      365 days (Egyptians)
      365.25 days (Julian)
      365.2422 days (Gregorian)
      _Lunar Calendars_
      354 days
      All of the above fall behind the true solar year yet we aren't told exactly how long the true solar year is. When you do the math:
      *7 days × 52 weeks = 364 days*
      This is the only reasonable answer I can come to. A historical study on the Gregorian calendar shows you that it was only created to keep Catholics from celebrating Easter at the same time Jews observed Passover...it never corrected any real issues with observances of equinoxes and solstices.

  • @nathenewendzel7806

    I gave made some fictional characters that are of a fictional nation celebrate some holidays twice a year due to their country not having a preference between the two calendars. They use both and specify similarly to how the United States is familiar with both the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales (even if Fahrenheit is used more outside of Science classes and experiments) and specify which is one is being used and learn at some point how to convert the two. One character said the Catholics primary prefer one calendar and the Orthodox's primarily prefer another, but the country doesn't feel like playing favorites, so they teach both and those who don't think it matters so much will sometimes use it as an excuse to celebrate twice and visit with one side of the family or group of people for one and the other or another for the other. When the the two Easter dates line up, they make a huge deal out of it and treat it like its extra special. Yeah I might have created a bunch of craziness based around the calendar debate. 😂

    Wait. So if a year is exactly 365 days, why did they have to add a day every leap year? That would push it in the other direction. That's rhetorical btw, I already know the real calendar.

  • @TheBeNimble

    It would have made more sense to eliminate a leap year day every 128 years. This would have been very smooth because 128 is evenly divisible by 4. More to the point is that matching the solstices and exuinoxes is closer with such a system than skipping 3 such days every 400 years.

    • @bryanlad007
      @bryanlad007 2 года назад +1

      That’s why we do that for centuries that aren’t divisible by 400. The leap year is removed. That way in the Gregorian calendar we lose a day every 3226 years

    здравствуйте! Great video! :-) There are so many bad, uninformed RUclips videos on this subject, but this is excellent. Great graphics too! The only major problem I have is that you're so beautiful that I found it hard to concentrate on what you were saying :D
    I'm a devout Christian, but neither Catholic nor Protestant. I go with what the Bible says. I don't celebrate Christmas - the Bible tells us to boycott pagan festivals and idolatry (eg Jer 10:3). It also tells us that the Lord Jesus was born in October/September (you have to do some digging, but it's there).
    I LOVE Russia! One of the greatest, most moral countries in the world! Sadly, my own country (the UK) has become the most evil, sinister and godless country on the planet within the past few decades. I no longer associate with the hell hole that is UK, I support Israel and the Jews - they may not be living right, but the Bible says those people are beloved to God, so they're beloved to me too!
    Well honey, I hope your channel gets more views. It deserves to. I've subscribed! :-) I'll check out some of your other videos. I'll try to pay attention to what you're saying but no promises! :/
