No problem with the calendar, ...Καλα Χριστουγεννα!<br /><br />No problem with the calendar, Mike. Some of the Orthodox world (e.g. Russia) still uses the Julian Calendar for the Liturgical Year. Heaven forbid we should use a calendar promulgated by a Pope! The rest of us celebrate the Feast on the same Dec 25th as the rest of the world, rather than the Dec 25th that comes 13 days later.<br /><br />However, those Orthodox Churches (Greece included) that are no longer 13 days behind the time aren't "really" using the Gregorian Calendar, but the New Revised Julian Calendar, which is a couple of milliseconds more accurate than the Gregorian Calendar used by Rome and the Protestants. Made the switch less controversial and easier to sell to the masses.Aviator47https://www.blogger.com/profile/05585964386930142907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-381917167978264683.post-51442379392401011032013-12-25T05:47:10.495-08:002013-12-25T05:47:10.495-08:00Thanks for posting mike.
