This article touches the kernel, orthodox Jews are a social group. This was what the GR"A wanted to prevent and change, but he failed. The article makes a distinction between "lernen" and learning. The distinction is kind of nice, though at first there was of course no difference, and in Hebrew both are the same, ללמוד. The difference arose when modern knowledge came up, and was rejected by the orthodox. That is when they became a mere social group. Although there are differences, all orthodox groups today are mere social groups. Because even the religious Zionists do not accept all science. The truth together with a little conscious lie is barely different from a big lie, and if one goes according to this "truth," one does not go, from one perspective, according to the truth at all. It is all or nothing with the truth. But the truth keeps knocking on the door, because Orthodoxy implies that it knows the truth, although it does not. The Orthodox even ruled o

Where is the traffic police !? What are the authorities doing !?

I made the final app , the Shechem app. It implements: public static Gauss gauss(int year, int n) { return new Gauss (year, n, 0); } This makes seven calendars in total: Baharad (the old Hebrew calendar), Eretz Yisrael , Shechem, Yerushalayim , Da'at, Keter, and the new Hebrew calendar ( Bizared ). The Shechem calendar is also a Baharad calendar, the same data for the Moladim of Tishrei and Nissan of year 1 apply. But it is identical to the Bizared calendar between the years 1000 and 7333. These are the seven options, as I see them, for the Sanhedrin, the Sanhedrin of the truth, to implement the "first Mitzvah" (see Rashi), in our days (Shemot 12:2): הַחֹדֶשׁ הַזֶּה לָכֶם, רֹאשׁ חֳדָשִׁים: רִאשׁוֹן הוּא לָכֶם, לְחָדְשֵׁי הַשָּׁנָה

At the summit stands the Keter calendar. It is defined by public static Gauss gauss(int year, int n) { return new Gauss (year, n, 642 + ((int) ((10 + n - (10 + n) % 19)/19) - ((10 + n >=0)?0:1))*1080*12); } This is the bravest choice. It keeps the 642 Chalakim of Ben Meir and adds to it the z/2 term that we know from the new Hebrew calendar. Of course, I made a Keter app for you. The Keter calendar also synchronizes on 1 Tishrei of year 1., as we saw for the other calendars. The Molad of Tishrei of the year 1 is at day ב, at ט"ז hours and 642 Chalakim. The Molad Nissan of year 1 is at day ו, at ט hours, and 793 Chalakim. Then there is the Da'at calendar, defined by public static Gauss gauss(int year, int n) { return new Gauss (year, n, - 642 + ((int) ((10 + n - (10 + n) % 19)/19) - ((10 + n >=0)?0:1))*1080*12); } This is the least ambitious choice of the upper realm. It has the 642 term with the opposite sign. The Da'at calendar also synchronizes on 1 T

All four calendars synchronize on the first day, 1 Tishrei of the year 1, 1 Tisrei 1, and in fact they synchronize until 29 Adar (I). After that, the Yerushalayim calendar and the new Hebrew calendar have a month of Adar Beth, whereas the Eretz Yisrael and the old Hebrew calendar have the month of Nissan. In jargon, year 1 is an LA2 year for the Yerushalayim and the new Hebrew calendar and a CA2 year for the Eretz Yisrael and the old Hebrew calendar. This is the Molad of Tishrei of year 1, according to the four calendars. In the old Hebrew calendar, it is at day ב, at ה hours and 204 Chalakim. In both the calendars of Yerushalayim and Eretz Yisrael, the Molad of Tishrei 1 is at day ב, at ד hours and 642 Chalakim. The new Hebrew calendar has the first Molad at day ב, at י"ז hours, and 204 Chalakim. And this is the Molad of Nissan of year 1, according to the four calendars. According to the old Hebrew calendar, it is at day ד, at ט hours and 642 Chalakim. According to the calenda

On 30 Cheshvan 5785, in the usual Hebrew calendar, there will be a divergence from the calendar according to Ben Meir , the calendar of Eretz Yisrael . In the latter calendar, this day is called Kislev 1, 1985. To say it differently, the year 1985, a CA5 year in the usual calendar, is a CR5 year in the calendar of Eretz Yisrael. The last day of divergence, in this millennium, is 29 Kislev in 5790. The year 5790 is an LD2 year in the usual calendar, but an LA7 year in the calendar of Eretz Yisrael. So, from 30 Cheshvan 5785 to 29 Kislev 5790 , there is an opportunity for the level of Klal Yisrael to rise up, by annulling the Cherem of Ben Meir, and similar bans throughout history, perpetrated on individual, well-meaning Jews. More often than not, these Jews were right, and we lost the opportunity to learn from them, and even if they were not right, the issuing of a Cherem did not help in our quest for the truth. Yes , we must change the calendar. We must not change to the calendar of

We have to do Teshuva. The Cherem of Ben Meir was wrong. The Cherem of Spinoza was wrong. The Cherem of Ramchal was wrong. There are many more. We have made mistakes. We have caused agony, untold agony. We, Israel as a nation, are responsible, because the awful sins against members of our nation and against the Truth that were perpetrated on our behalf. Maybe, if we change our ways, the Truth will forgive us. We have to, formally and loudly, revoke all these bans. And we have to do more. We have to make sure that it will happen no more that people feel banned from society, because today we ban people in many ways. Our government organizations have grown corrupt. They are only interested in the perpetuation of their power over the people. Gone is the idealism that once was, and it shows, on the roads, with the horrendous misbehavior in traffic. Where is the government organization that is in charge? The deeds of the fathers are sign for the sons. Moshe said, in Shemot 2:14: "The

I made another app , the Eretz Yisrael app, that allows you to verify my claims . The Eretz Yisrael calendar is equally old and equally authoritative as the "old" Hebrew calendar, hence the quotes. The app is in the public domain. Download the code here . The code differs only in one place from the "old" Hebrew calendar, it subtracts the 642 Chalakim of Aharon Ben Meir . That is, in technical terms , it implements: public static Gauss gauss(int year, int n) { return new Gauss (year, 0, 642); } As you can see, it has, focusing on Rosh Hashanah, a divergence from the usual calendar in 4683, 4683, and 4688. This is the direct reason of the dispute that erupted in 4681 . Finally, the "third Hebrew calendar" is naturally called the Yerushalayim calendar. In technical terms , is has the full treatment of the generational parameter n, and it has Ben-Meir shift of 642 Chalakim: public static Gauss gauss(int year, int n) { return new Gauss (year, n, 642);
