So every 231 years, they fall one day behind the Gregorian year

2018-10-20 23:19:26 UTC

I see

2018-10-20 23:19:47 UTC

Which puts them about a month behind us now

2018-10-20 23:20:22 UTC

Ehzek and I got into it awhile back about the length of preflood lifespans related to this

2018-10-20 23:20:47 UTC

That they could have measured time differently, but that wouldn't make sense either.

2018-10-20 23:21:16 UTC

I dont think I argued that

2018-10-20 23:21:17 UTC

The oldest of them would have been about 3-4 days younger than measured in a Gregorian calendar

2018-10-20 23:21:25 UTC

Maybe it was someone else then

2018-10-20 23:21:44 UTC

I dunno if they count gestational time though

2018-10-20 23:21:50 UTC

Koreans actually do

2018-10-20 23:22:05 UTC

Calender might have been different but the year would have been the same

2018-10-20 23:22:07 UTC

So if a Korean chick tells you she's 18, beware

2018-10-20 23:22:36 UTC

I dont think there is a calendar with a non standard year period

2018-10-20 23:23:01 UTC

The asians do age weird

2018-10-20 23:23:26 UTC

Depends highly on the classical era too though as they didn't have the same system to calculate days/hours though

2018-10-20 23:23:30 UTC

There is a system where everyone grows older on the same day too

2018-10-20 23:23:35 UTC

Koreans are age 1 at birth, and +1 each New Years

2018-10-20 23:23:41 UTC

Yep that

2018-10-20 23:23:55 UTC

Madness

2018-10-20 23:24:22 UTC

Back in the old days, in fact not too long ago, sunset was the end of the day. So all the dark hours were at the beginning of the day

2018-10-20 23:24:48 UTC

It would have measured up fairly accurately over time

2018-10-20 23:25:33 UTC

But each day wouldn't be equal to each other

2018-10-20 23:25:55 UTC

I would rather days start at sunrise

2018-10-20 23:26:41 UTC

Or roughly at 6 am

2018-10-20 23:26:52 UTC

True, but the fact is that we don't know a lot for classic era / pre classic era. On prehistoric a measure of time was to look at the sun, before humans even made a sun-clock to make the days in parts

2018-10-20 23:27:07 UTC

That's why Jews have Sabbath at weird times, and Catholics can go to mass on Saturday evening to skip church on Sundays

2018-10-20 23:27:20 UTC

But people knew there were years for a while

2018-10-20 23:27:26 UTC

People pretty much did that up until not that long ago

2018-10-20 23:27:39 UTC

Even when clocks were around not everyone had one

2018-10-20 23:27:56 UTC

Clock towers n shiet

2018-10-20 23:28:13 UTC

Or communal sun dial what ever

2018-10-20 23:28:25 UTC

The majority of people didn't live in a clock town

2018-10-20 23:28:35 UTC

Or even close to neighbors

2018-10-20 23:29:10 UTC

The roosters told them it was morning, and they only knew it was time to get off work because they couldn't see shit

2018-10-20 23:31:24 UTC

Roosters where used as a signal that was time to wake up mostly and it's still used in some villages here

2018-10-20 23:31:42 UTC

Ptolemy came up with noon, and by extension midnight, and divided each half into 12 hours

2018-10-20 23:31:59 UTC

I still see it when I'm going to my village as a lot of the old people still use the same routine

2018-10-21 00:05:44 UTC

In different times of the year, the hours will be different lengths too

2018-10-21 00:06:36 UTC

thats logical, in winter here we have "shorter" days and longer nights while in summer is the opposite

2018-10-21 00:10:56 UTC

Yeah, an hour was 1/12th of the light time

2018-10-21 00:11:33 UTC

If it was actually light for 13 hours, then a Roman hour would be 1:05

2018-10-21 20:38:29 UTC

2018-10-22 06:43:33 UTC

That room is also the reasons to believe wiccanism room.

2018-10-22 13:25:22 UTC

paganism is rarted

2018-10-22 18:42:59 UTC

I've come to hate demonic other religions so much that I'm done celebrating Halloween, still eating shitty candy tho

2018-10-22 18:48:38 UTC

I celebrate All Saint's Eve

2018-10-22 18:50:11 UTC

For me Halloween is Halo night. Few guys get together and play halo until midnight

2018-10-22 18:50:35 UTC

For me I dress up in a Scooby Doo costume

2018-10-22 18:50:48 UTC

And get a bunch of parents wanting pics of me with their kids

2018-10-22 18:50:56 UTC

Or a bunch of hot jailbait

2018-10-22 18:52:23 UTC

ppl get so apeshit over halloween in my neck of the woods

2018-10-22 18:52:42 UTC

and the only celebrations are shitty gigs in nightclubs for the young dorks.

2018-10-22 18:53:28 UTC

We have this holiday called All Souls Day, which in essence is paying respects to your dead relatives

2018-10-22 18:53:36 UTC

which is on November 2nd

2018-10-22 18:54:18 UTC

and various cucks and idiots screech of "capitalist pig americans forcing their holidays on us"

2018-10-22 18:56:30 UTC

All Souls follows All Saints, which follows All Saints Eve and is part of a three day Christian festival older than capitalism and America

2018-10-22 18:56:39 UTC

yeah

2018-10-22 18:56:44 UTC

Several local churches donโ€™t โ€œcelebrateโ€ Halloween.

2018-10-22 18:57:13 UTC

But they do a trunk or treat for the kids. Have some vehicles in the parking lot with candy.

2018-10-22 18:57:43 UTC

but you have to take into the account our joyful time in the commie fantasy

2018-10-22 18:57:48 UTC

I usually go to a party and drink a lot with friends and my wife. Or I stay home and game lol

2018-10-22 18:58:13 UTC

where everybody grab their state provided red carnations and go cheer at a parade on the october revolution day

2018-10-22 18:58:24 UTC

the flowers were dutch btw

2018-10-22 18:58:47 UTC

so the commie retards think that the state will force them to celebrate it.

2018-10-22 18:58:59 UTC

and also attend LGBT parades.

2018-10-22 19:01:03 UTC

Halloween was started by a Syrian Pope

2018-10-22 19:01:49 UTC

Wasn't it a celtic new year that got hit by a christianising beam?

2018-10-22 19:02:17 UTC

Not exactly

2018-10-22 19:04:11 UTC

Kids used to dress up to represent souls in purgatory and go door to door begging for cakes in exchange for prayers

2018-10-22 19:04:13 UTC

Arenโ€™t they coincidentally near the same date?

2018-10-22 19:04:48 UTC

The Christian religious holiday was like November and then the Celtic pagan day was October.

2018-10-22 19:04:50 UTC

The pumpkins were originally gourds and turnips

2018-10-22 19:05:37 UTC

The Celtic new year was Nov 1

2018-10-22 19:06:50 UTC

I thought saim hann (sp?) was some soul worship Celtic pagan day.

2018-10-22 19:07:01 UTC

Yeah

2018-10-22 19:07:25 UTC

The Celtic spellings are weird. I know itโ€™s pronounced as โ€œsow-ainโ€.

2018-10-22 19:08:23 UTC

They left food and drinks outside because they thought the barrier between our world and the afterlife was shorter on that day and the souls of their ancestors would come visit

2018-10-22 19:08:36 UTC

Yeah

2018-10-22 19:08:46 UTC

And big bonfires

2018-10-22 19:08:54 UTC

Now. Was that day their new year day?

2018-10-22 19:09:00 UTC

Yeah

2018-10-22 19:10:33 UTC

New Year's for everyone else used to be at the beginning of spring

2018-10-22 19:10:45 UTC

Not some arbitrary day in the dead of winter

2018-10-22 19:11:16 UTC

Ah ok.

2018-10-22 19:11:33 UTC

I thought it was exclusively a Celtic spirit day.

2018-10-22 19:11:50 UTC

Roman calendar reform in 153 BC added January and February, and moved NY to Jan 1st, but people still kept March 25th as NY

2018-10-22 19:12:14 UTC

And it stayed so in the entirety of the British Empire including British America until 1752

2018-10-22 19:12:49 UTC

Catholic countries went to Jan 1st in 1582 with the adoption of the Gregorian calendar

2018-11-02 18:59:32 UTC

Curious... Are you( @Deleted User ) a Catholicism or bust kind of Catholic?

2018-11-02 18:59:58 UTC

Dual conversations ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

2018-11-02 19:04:45 UTC

Asking out of curiosity. Iโ€™ve seen a few Catholics in another group make the argument that being Catholic is the only way to heaven.

2018-11-02 19:05:59 UTC

It's the one true faith and there is no salvation outside of it because from the Catholic Church came the Bible and pretty much everything else foundational to Christianity. But I don't believe Protestants go to hell for being Protestants, no

2018-11-02 19:07:56 UTC

Ah ok. The last sentence is what I was wondering.

2018-11-02 19:09:33 UTC

Iโ€™ve seen that argument presented several times in another group. Interesting to see them argue about being v2 catholic as heretical or not.

2018-11-02 19:10:04 UTC

Hasnโ€™t really been explained what v2 is so, being a Prot I donโ€™t know what theyโ€™re talking about.

2018-11-02 19:11:21 UTC

I do see it as foolish to argue that the Catholic Church is somehow entirely outside biblical teachings by some local pastors.

2018-11-02 19:11:40 UTC

Second Vatican Council

2018-11-02 19:11:58 UTC

Ah ok

2018-11-02 19:12:21 UTC

Biggest thing about Vatican II is the Mass doesn't have to be in Latin

2018-11-02 19:12:26 UTC

The guy arguing against v2 claims to be a sedevantist or something.
