Why should I as an Orthodox Christian use the gregorian calendar invented by the pope in 1582? Why would I put convenience over what has been the tradition of the church for ages?
Why does it matter? Time doesn’t change depending on what calendar we use.

Okay. That makes a little bit more sense. It’s also another globalist tool to maximize profits.>why does church tradition matter
Good question. I think you're capable of figuring out the answer yourself.
On the Julian Calendar, Church Tradition, and Standing for the Faith
Christmas and New Year is a time when many Orthodox Christians who follow the Julian (old) calendar wonder why they do so; or rather, those who follow the Gregorian (new) calendar wonder why the old calendar Churches don’t want to change. Here is another thorough look at this question, from a...pravoslavie.ru
The calendar we use shapes our culture, our festivals, even our work schedules. They want us all on the same time because it's easier to control.
Kinda reminds me of how before widespread clocks people just weren't punctual. They would arrive whenever and everything regarding time was loosely defined. But with the industrial revolution and wide spread adoption of the clock suddenly people were slaves to these mechanical hands. (not at first doe, at first people didn't care and were late and would randomly take breaks all the time which is why schools were established, to train people to obey the clock)
would not be surprised if people called about doomsday and whatnot in a decade due to that kek
i thought it was because of the pressure dependent clocks in paris
Before the Bolshevik revolution the Russian empire was still using the Julian calendar (That’s why The October revolution was celebrated in November in the USSR due to the calendar switch) I just wanted to bring this up because I find it weird why the Bolsheviks changed the calendar from Julian to Gregarian maybe there was a conspiracy and something deeper behind this
Well, the clearest assumption would be that they wanted to culturally destroy Eastern Orthodoxy as much as they were able to, and so that'd include abolishing the calendar system used by the Tsars.
That’s what I was thinking, My conclusion was that the Bolsheviks were Jews who hated everything there was about the Tsar and the old empire so they literally destroyed everything about it. Even the calendar lol
They also had idea to make their own calendar
For real? What was it based on?
They basically wanted to make their own weeks and rename month after commie shit
