- adolph 3y agoWhew, glad someone is keeping track. Are there any other superstitions to know about? Be sure to do a Tell HN if anything changes in the world of who’s problematical.
- dfee 3y agoYo. This us vs. them is bullshit. Stop it.
- abridges6523 3y agoI understand your POV and where it comes from but not all Christian’s believe in a theocracy or that those things you mentioned are even bad necessarily. Your lumping a lot of people in one group.
- TedDoesntTalk 3y agoThe Mayans believed creation to be 11 August 3114 BCE Hindus? 3050 BCE or 3102 BCE Chinese? 39,000 BCE Egypt? 39,575 Or 28,000 BCE Babylonians? 400,000–200,000 years before their own time No one got it right.

- zornthewise 3y agoYou got the hindu date wrong. The Hindu cosmology actually has scales comparable with what modern cosmology believes.
- TedDoesntTalk 3y agoSomeone should correct Wikipedia then. It’s got errors for sure sometimes.
- Arnavion 3y agoWhat your Wikipedia link says is already correct, ie that 3000BC is when kaliyuga started. The start of kaliyuga is not when the universe was created. Kaliyuga is just the last four hundred thousand years of a four million-year cycle, at the end which all the evil folk get purged and then the next cycle starts with a high quantity of good again. The universe as a whole is created and destroyed in four billion-year cycles (one kalpa each). We're currently in the middle of the cycle, ie the universe was created two billion years ago. And Brahma the creator god lives for a longer time than that - three hundred trillion years - and we're halfway through that period as well. Of course all these numbers are entirely "beautiful" mathematical constructions, and don't have any actual basis in observations or reality.
