Another long term crisis started, once again,
by the all-knowing and science hating Church.

Think how less complicated it would have been
to stay on the lunar calendar.

Same number of days, same time for the feasts
each year, no poems to remember which month
had how many days, but, no, the Church couldn’t
do that, could they?

Yeah. The science-hating Church based the Gregorian Calendar on astronomical calculation so accurate that it accounts for solar lunar and axis-tilt factors to keep seasonal events within their correct seasons without major adjustments over a period of centuries.

But by all means keep your own calendar. It’ll be so fun for you.

The ancient liturgical churches don't hate science; they worship it.
