Emescot:New Year's is just a holiday created by calender companies who don't want you reusing last year's calender. STOP treating New year's like some sort of life-changing event. If your life sucked last year, it's probably still going to suck tomorrow. #Fact. 4 Likes |

ShakaZullu:coz it belongs to gods Origin of the Names of the Months January: Janus, Roman god of doors, beginnings, sunset and sunrise, had one face looking forward and one backward, February: On February 15 the Romans celebrated the festival of forgiveness for sins; (februare, Latin to purify), March: Mars, the Roman god of war, April: Roman month Aprilis, perhaps derived from aperire, (Latin to open, as in opening buds and blossoms) or perhaps from Aphrodite, original Greek name of Venus, May: Maia, Roman goddess, mother of Mercury by Jupiter and daughter of Atlas, June: Juno, chief Roman goddess, July: Renamed for Julius Caesar in 44 BC, who was born this month; Quintilis, Latin for fifth month, was the former name (the Roman year began in March rather than January), August: Formerly Sextilis (sixth month in the Roman calendar); re-named in 8 BC for Augustus Caesar, September: September, (septem, Latin for 7) the seventh month in the Julian or Roman calendar, established in the reign of Julius Caesar, October: Eighth month (octo, Latin for ![]() November: Ninth Roman month (novem, Latin for 9). Catholic countries adopted the Gregorian calendar in 1582, skipping 10 days that October, correcting for too many leap years, December: Julian (Roman) year's tenth month (decem, Latin for 10). 1 Like |

The truth is that science and Christianity are interwoven. And as much as Seun and the other atheist would like to disparage Christianity, their world (and indeed the entire world) has been shaped and governed by laws which emanate from the application of principles in the bible. The bible is the greatest book of philosophy ever written. It encourages hard work, supports research, encourages you to excel, tasks you to the limit and contains d deepest wisdom known to man. Even If you never heard of Christianity or Judaism and you come accross a bible and start reading out of curiosity; before you are halfway gone, the deep truths will start hitting you like heavyweight punches. 3 Likes |

ShakaZullu: That's not true!. Every nation is not celebrating the new year today. Chinese new year for example; fall on the following days:- 2017 date Saturday, 28 January. 2018 date Friday, 16 February. 2019 date Tuesday, 5 February. The only reason it appears that way to you is because as Dr. John. H. Clarke put it 'in slavery, a brain surgery was conducted on black people and the brain removed without opening the skull'. Everything about us has been stolen and replaced with whatever white people want us to believe. The Arab world also do have their calendar and I' am sure this's not new year day in Saudi Arabia. But, since your question is "why" I'll go straight to why. What happened is that when Rome was a world power, the popes, example; Pope Alexander Borgia IV, after stealing world history to their credit, including changing the image of Jesus Christ who was originally a black man to his son a white man, also used the date of the birth of the fake Jesus as the beginning of time. The early Roman catholic even made a mistake, cause modern calculation put the death of Jesus around 1,505 years ago not 2,000 years ago. Of course, dfferent countries still use their own calendar internally. I' am sure North Korea is not celebrating the new year today. Really, the question you're asking is like asking; why does every country use the US dollar?. 1 Like 1 Share |

naijatoonz: Islamic lunar calender ? A confused calendar from a confused religion put together by a confused warlord and followed by confused people. Islam is very far removed from science and reality Allows for no innovation and free thinking. A form of enslavement which seeks to keep its followers perpetually in a state of confusion Untill everything progressive becomes haram 2 Likes |

musicwriter:meaning you don't understand the write up i didn't dispute the calender of other countries or religions the question is why is gregorian calender the only acceptable calendar worldwide it's not about them celebrating new year today it's about the official useage they're bound to use it for example will Chinese count your visa according to their calendar? see whether they accept it or not they must follow it so next time before you write something first read and digest eehm about Jesus being black simple logic should tell you that Jews ( Israeli) are 98% Caucasians so spare me the fallacy Thanks 1 Like |

ShakaZullu: I think I told you at the bottom, I said the question you're asking is like asking, why the US dollar is used in every country. Of course, there have to be a universal date to avoid confusion when dealing with foreigners. The Chinese, Arabs, e.t.c would only use the Gregorian date when dealing with the outside world, not internally. You must differentiate between the Biblical Jews and Aknazi Jews. The people who call themselves Jews today are not the same as the Jews of the Bible. They're Aknazi Jews originating from a Germanic tribe in Europe. The Jews the Bible is talking about were originally from Ethiopia and there were blacks. Amos 9: 7 -KJV- Ethiopians were called Israelites. Jeremiah 14: 2 - KJV- Judah from where Christ came from was specifically called black. Note: Read from the king James version, cause reference to Jews and Judah ss blacks has been deleted from subsequent Bible translations. And no matter the Bible you use, if you see Cush or Cushites, Cush = Ethiopia and Cushites = Ethiopians. See the lost history http://www.africason.com/2016/01/the-lost-history-why-was-black-history.html If you have any reference in the Bible where the Jews or Jesus was described as white, I will delete my nairaland account. |
