I don't understand why people just can't call it the New Year and say Happy New Year like they did in communist states.The Russian Orthodox Church's use of the Julian Calendar has a lot to do with the success of that measure. 25th December OS (the Church's date) is 7th January NS (the Pope of Rome and Lenin's date), so, with everyone getting blotto the week beforehand, Christmas Day is not as big a deal. |
