even if the days of the week and month are named after fairy-tale characters,
then from this Europeans or Japanese will not believe in God
so even more fun
like fantasy
because, in the Torah one must believe or Christ, it is not clear
or mars
Gregorian calendar is a fabulous fantasy secular calendar.
Russia lives according to the Gregorian calendar, as a secular state
Gregorian calendar is not Catholic but secular
if Russia and Japan live on it
the world lives on a secular calendar
I'm happy

do you want to live according to the catholic calendar?
by the way, Lamarck knew about evolution before Darwin Technically, it’s the Roman calendar, with the months named in the days of Numa Pompilius in the 7th or 8th centuries BCE, and the days of the week named after Norse gods. And while the years were supposedly centered around the birth of Jesus, it should be noted that Dionysus Exiguus at the very least, got the date wrong, since King Herod, who supposedly heard of Jesus’ birth and killed all babies in the area (which didn’t happen IRL, but it is part of the lore and Herod the Great was a nasty enough piece of work it’s not too out of character for him) died four years before Jesus was supposedly born, so it’s off by at least four years!
So it’s really not a Christian calendar after all!

Strictly speaking, the Roman months and Norse days of the week were at different times, but, sure enough, that’s what we live under now. Though Saturday is named for Saturn, and Sunday and Monday are named for the sun and moon, we still latched onto Woden’s Day, Thor’s Day, Freya’s day, and Tiw’s day (though some of them are the germanicised versions, specifically Tiw and Woden).
Christianity has had an extreme impact on the way we look at things, even as it loses its relevance, but the Julian/Gregorian calendar is a bad example.

OK, you get the idea. The scheme works. The designation of Sunday is a bit strange, but the rest is very logical.

Sorry, but humanity has so many other important issues to deal with, this seems to me completely unimportant.
Are you also complaining about the days of the week being named after Norse gods (Thursday = Thor's day, Friday = Freya, Wednesday = Wotan's day), or the months being named after Roman gods (January = Janus, March = Mars, May = Maia, June = Juno)?
I agree. If one is going to go after far right conservative Christians in the west, I can go with that, but the calendar is the last on my list.
Knowing that Christmas trees and even December 25th is also the birth of other claimed polytheist deities, are trops stolen by Christianity, the calendar is hardly important to me.
