would not the one true god tell him what an earth year is?

islam uses the crescent moon as it's symbol and uses a lunar calendar and prior to islam they worshipped a moon god and still have a so called moon rock at the kaaba....
http://www.biblebelievers.org.au/moongod.htm
The eastern cornerstone of the Kaaba is the Hajar el Aswad, (the sacred "Black Stone"), which is generally thought to be a meteorite remnant.
At the time of Muhammad, his tribe, the Quraysh was in charge of the Kaaba, which was at that time a shrine to numerous Arabian tribal gods.

Saracen
John of Damascus, himself a resident of the Caliphate's capital city, described the Saracens in the early 8th century :

There is also the people-deceiving cult (threskeia) of the Ishmaelites, the forerunner of the Antichrist, which prevails until now. It derives from Ishmael, who was born to Abraham from Hagar, wherefore they are called Hagarenes and Ishmaelites. And they call them Saracens, inasmuch as they were [sent away] empty-handed by Sarah (ek tes Sarras kenous); for it was said to the angel by Hagar: "Sarah has sent me away empty-handed" (cf. Genesis xxi. 10, 14).
These, then, were idolaters and worshippers of the morning star and Aphrodite whom in fact they called Akbar (Chabar) in their own language, which means "great". So until the times of Heraclius they were plain idolaters.

From that time till now a true prophet appeared among them, surnamed Muhammad (Mamed), who, having happened upon the Old and the New Testament and apparently having conversed, in like manner, with an Arian monk, put together his own heresy. And after ingratiating himself with the people by a pretence of piety, he spread rumours of a scripture (graphe) brought down to him from heaven. So, having drafted some ludicrous doctrines in his book, he handed over to them this form of worship (to sebas).
In this extract, John might actually have been referring to Allat, a pre-Islamic goddess equated with Aphrodite.

muhammad should have obeyed the 10 commandments and the teachings of Jesus especially when he was plagiarizing judaism and christianity, therefore he proves himself to be false. his actions speak louder than his words.

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Many ancient cultures used a lunar calendar as the regular 29 1/2 day cycle of the moon is convenient for keeping time...and all recognized that the lunar and solar cycles differed by about 11 days a year. Some cultures developed corrections for this, others didn't deem it necessary. The Arab culture went along very well without intercalating corrections into their calendar.

The Jews, for example, had long since done so, intercalating 7 29-day months ( and a spare day or so) every 19 years to ensure that over that time period, the same number of days were counted.

Christians have done the same thing...as did the Greeks and Romans, it isn't just a coincidence that Greek gods all have a Roman counterpart.

That said, we have to realize that messages received from a Perfect God are interpreted by imperfect humans, and unfortunately, I also believe that most of those messages have gone through further revision each time that a human has rewritten the "Good Book" in it's many forms.

Sad to say, but even as a Christian, I don't take the Bible literally, but accept the general messages and lessons and try to live by them.

Arabs before Islam used to use lunar calendar as well. The reason is because the weather there is always hot and they can not find much difference between winter and summer. Therefore, it was easier for them to count the number of times the moon turns into a full moon

In both the Bible and the Qur'ân religious festivals are regulated by the lunar calendar. Jews and Muslims have kept to these regulations which they believe to be from God. Why does Christianity follow a solar calendar?

The crescent wasn't a symbol for Islam back then, and still isn't.

It was the symbol of the Ottoman empire, and before that wasn't used to represent Islam.

How stupid do you have to be to believe that moon god crap?
