... which is funny, because the gregorian calendar is supposedly based on a compromise between some years that christ was supposedly born in (the chosen year 1 is none of those, according to research, as he was born in 6-4 BC [0]). So now we have: another calendar, that has a starting year that is defined by subtracting an arbitrary number from a compromise between alledged years some person was born in. I love how humanity has the capability to invent new things with increasing complexity.
