Calendars are generally not acurate ...

   In Israel will be year 5760
   Islam calendar will be 1420
   Chinese will be year 4635
   Maia civilization will be year 5119
   Etiopia in Africa will be year 1992 ( if you loose party now you have
another chance ... )

   Birth of Cristh:
   19/11  in Egypt
   20/05 in Palestin
   06/01 in Etiopia ( I believe they keep this date until now ... )
   25/12 in Rome was a celebration of a Persa God named Mitra and the church
acepted this date as oficial

   Based on astronomical events Herodes ( the guy that ordered  to kill all
babies in Jerusalem ) were dead 4 A.C so Jesus Cristh must be born 4 years
earlier and our new milenium is already in place !!!

    Merry Cristhmas and Happy New Year !!!!
    Feliz Natal e Feliz Ano Novo !
