we tend to overlook the fact that many people do not believe in Jesus, which undermines the legitimacy of the Gregorian calendar. Aside from that, many societies do not follow the Gregorian calendar and believe that their calendars are more legitimate.

Human civilization has been around for more than 2,012 years before Jesus was born, which isn’t very long ago considering the breadth of human and non-human terrestrial history.

Cheers to the new year!

"Mitt Romney pays fourteen percent of income in taxes, and people who get out there and work for a living pay twenty five, twenty eight, thirty, thirty three percent. I get it. Mitt Romney gets a better deal than any of the rest of us, because he manages to earn his income in a way that has been specially protected for rich folks. I think that’s wrong.” — Elizabeth Warren"

Senate candidate Dr. Elizabeth Warren, destroying Mitt Romney in 30 seconds on Laurence O’Donnell’s show.  (via drst)
