It should be noted that true Christians are not governed by any sacred or religious calendar specifying certain holy days or festivals, a point that is clearly stated by the apostle Paul at Galatians 4:9-11 and Colossians 2:16, 17. The one event that they are required to observe annually, the Lord’s Evening Meal, at Passover time, is governed by the lunar calendar and always falls on Nisan 14th, which date occurs always in March or April of the Julian Calander

:D
lolz, that's funny :P
Calendrical years actually fit pretty well with the earth's period of orbiting the Sun ;) and no, they are not based on Christian mythology, the year of the Christian calendar is a proper solar year adopted from earlier calendars. Just because it is stuffed with Christian holidays doesn't mean that it's based on Christian mythology ;)
In this sense, since a foot or an inch are based on human body parts, length is just a false impression... Things we measure don't depend on the units of measurement. Your room doesn't change its length according to whether you measure it in feet or meters ;) A second is just a second for a Christian, a Jewish and an atheist clock...

It can't really be a religion at all unless we worship it. Time and
everything else is different to someone else. If we met someone
from another Galaxy they would be on a different time and the
names of things like Earth, Moon, & the planets would have a
different name to them. Really time is just a screwed up mess.
People in what we call B.C. didn't count the years backwards so
it must have been something else or not really counted at all.
The Chinese are like in year 4,000 or 5,000.

Years are based on the rotation of the Earth around the sun...
You can start to count rotations (years) from which prophet you like or from the Genesis: the time remains the same.
