Hello,
This is my first post since I introduced myself. So, excuse me that I start on such a marginal(I assume) topic as the chosen calendar.
This is not a reply to your post Peter but a general remark

I can't just see why adopting more exact calendar and time keeping is in any way against the Christianity and the Orthodox Church.
God created the Universe in such a way that at least the macro features of it seem to be ruled by real numbers. So, the year doesn't divide into the equal number of days, a day into an equal number of seconds etc.
To me it is certainly more convenient to know that the plane is going to take off at 10:32 and not at 8:40 or 6:15 according to the season. Also, I prefer to know that the September equinox starts around 23/9 and not say 10/9.

Wouldn't it be ore covenient to have the same calendar and time all over the world and wouldn't have to confuse ourselves? Wouldn't it be one of the signs of reconciliation between the East and the West? Aren't there more important things to worry about like materialism and consumerism?

Sorry if I am completely off-way. Please enlighten me if and where I have gone astray.

God bless you all

Adam
