oh shut up
RRFfanforever someone doesn't want equality
Most places with other religions use different calendars. For example, the Solar Hijri calendar, Tabular Islamic calendar, the Mayan calendar, etc.
The Gregorian calendar is mostly used in countries that once had a majority Christian population.
í guess this video was cool í never really thought this much about the calendar. seems stupid to claim it as a tool for religion if you ask me. the year 0 is supposed to represent the time after jesus died not born, thought that was basic knowledge for a professional historian.
Sophie C comments like his are just annoying and cliche lol. no problem with equality :)

As a humanist I can say I support this new calendar. It will take a while for the world to adjust if it is adopted, but if we must face the future we must have one less difference between members of our species.
I agree , humans must be the angstiest species to ever exist, it would be good to see something that celebrates humanity instead of moaning about how shit we are.
Hayden Chisholm Well, to be fair we have no idea what other species think about themselves. For all we know if dogs could speak to us they might be the most nihilistic creatures on the face of the Earth.
***** I see.
as an anti-humanist I would oppose the new calendar simply out of spite. I have nothing but hatred for humanist,atheist and all regressives liberals.
troll?
We need to ditch the "BC/AD-BCE/CE" that is too confusing.
.
KooliSkey I agree. We just need the one type of time telling
The correct way to indicate time is ce and bce.
KooliSkey yaaas
Both are correct, its just that Before Christ/ Anno Domini is not politically correct, so politicians and publications tend not to use them and instead opt for Before Common Era/ Common Era.
This year would be a palindrome!
That's what I'M thinkin'!
@James Allison He is talking about 12021
as a software developer...I completely oppose this idea.
you could design some software to change and add an 1 in front of all dates with some deep learning wizardry or something.
It would require changing a lot of existing softwares.
With a quick patch to be up to date I dont think many company would care
It's not that simple. It's actually really hard in fact.
As a computer scientist, I completely love this idea.
When you see that most of the top comments are directed at mocking religious groups, you realize that the audience for which Kurtzgesagt creates their video's isn't progressive at all. Religious debate wasn't even featured in this video. (Atheist btw)
Ah it is very true. I'm Christian wouldn't say hard core ect. But regarding the topic. I genuinely think we should say 12,000 BC/BCE ect. I just think its genuinely an easier thing for people to grasp.
Sam
Actually, it's not just liberals that are atheists. Many centrists and some of the alt-right are atheists and/or agnostic. Heck, even some neoconservatives are too.
Sam FINALLY SOMEONE BRINGS THAT UP, THANK YOU
this wasnt a debate video about existentialism though. It was about admiring the progress of humanity. Religious or not religious is irrelevant. What even is the religious debate for this topic?
This video didn't even mention religion. So you're just trying to stir trouble where it's not needed.

i feel kinda sad that people who lived back then never know what humanity has grown into as a species and how we will never know past around 2100 where humanity will go
Famey Though I try not to think about it, you've basically outlined what I often ponder on... yeah, it is very sad, but it's just our natural instinct to be curious. That's the whole reason why we've come along this far and we wonder where we'll go in the deep future! :)
I think that's the best part. To look back at all the stages of humanity and see who took part in what, and how that turned out. The fact that things can change so much is pretty cool. All that matters is that we were here and we contributed. Humanity in the year 2100, if humanity still exists, will only be there because we were here in this moment, right now. Think of that. It's amazing how connected we all really are.
You have to keep in mind that with the progress of medicine we have NOW a lot of people who are like 20 now are going to live in 2100. It's breathtaking how far humanity has come as a species in the last 50 years alone. Now imagine that progress but even faster with twice as much time.

British scientists are known for their joke discoveries, yet their accent makes everything sound so solid and true. I hate irony!
Too bad he fucked up some details. The Olmecs lived in Mexico, not South America. Also, most historians and archaeologists doubt the claim that militant "sea peoples" led to the Bronze Age collapse, and it was probably climatological.

Ken Anderson
I agree. (1)2016 was the worst year. Brexit maybe happened, trump happened, zika virus happened...
I personally find this a great year because I changed a lot, and for the better.
As a christian. I endorse this wholeheartedly. Christ would have wanted us to start from the beginning of when we stopped thinking like animals, graduated and birthed into taking our first steps into making the world our own.
After all 'be fruitful and multiply.'
Andrew Singleton EXACTLY. And that didn't just mean in population, but also in talents, morality, cultures, and various other things that make humans humans.
We were given minds capible of figuring things out. Why shouldn't we? Better to know than not so we can decide what things we really shouldn't do rather than 'oh everything is off limits forever.'
Jesus is literally the Beginning and the End...
Perhaps so. However while God is the alpha and omega, we have been given minds capable of piecing together the how of the tinker toy set we're in.
Why else make the universe make sense in ways beyond 'god wills it'? We have freedom of will, which means there must be a logical explanation that is not god-dependent for there to be real choice else it's just a petulant child telling their parent to sod off. Now? If the universe is governed by rules that do not fluctuate at the whims of vodka. This means we can use how things connect to make the universe better.
You're right, he is not the center, which is where most calender's currently put him.

Hey we can make a religion out of this
I hope this becomes a more significantly talked about issue one day. It doesn't seem like it's such a big deal but it's about perspective and sometimes perspective can change the world.
First we need to overcome magical and religious thinking, for that we still have a lot of work ahead. I hope that maybe in 12.118 that could be possible.
This really isn't significant at all... If you think about all the changes that need to be made in order to facilitate a change like this then you quickly find out that it isn't really worth it.
I mean, what is the point of making this change? Just to separate the calendar from its Christian roots? We have loads of other things in our society today that are rooted in Christian values, so why bother changing this one thing?
Im going to start using it as the year every time I have to write something. Lets start an internet trend #12.018
And we have to overcome Capitalism/War. An economy focused on profit$/greed - rewarding the worst traits at the expense of billions of people worldwide. We have to change our corrupt imperialist oligarchic system to one that focuses on humanity and progress as a species.
unless youre a christian that believes the earth is 6000 years old

As an atheist and someone who has zero connection to Jesus or just any "one historical figure," I find this a really cool idea. Those who grew up with the old calendar wouldn't even have to do any math to orientate themselves by the old one, since we'd keep the last 2 digits identical. Not much would change.
the last 4 digits identical
Oh look.. another redditard
The question is: why?
First, switching to a new calendar would be insanely hard.
Second, basing it on things not written in any sources is not really a good idea.
Car Lover still you gotta apreciate it . But i see what u mean
Jay Kay Incredibly.
Many systems in the world are coded only for handling four-digit current dates. Most date displays can only display 4 digits. Most people are accustomed to the current system. It would be basically a stupid thing to do just for sake of replacing Christian significance with nerd significance.
No Google, I don't want to use my real name. It's not easy. Read my comment above.
Car Lover Well, the only reason we base off written history is because in the past that was the only reliable information. Now though, this information is pretty trustworthy. As for it being hard, not really. It would require devotion to the idea, but tougher things have happened.
first point is valid, second is pretty damn stupid

Guard13007 its actually completely practical if enough people where to say this makes more sense it would be an easy change
Jasper Sapa Are you serious? It would cost millions in re-printing documents, millions in re-producing plaques, all history books would have to be replaced, every piece of education has to be rewritten, all software would have to be updated (which alone would cost billions, both in development costs and fixing errors). Jesus, just look at how difficult it is to keep people on modern operating systems. The military still runs operations on fucking floppy disks. Updating all calendars and equipment in the world would cost at least a trillion dollars. AT LEAST. Not to mention how much time it would cost.
No, it wouldn't. We don't have to go back and change everything, just look at A.D. and say that it was 10k years behind.

Do you watch Veritasium? i've heard some random person on the street say about 4k as an estimate to the age of the universe
Chuck, the bible might not say the earth is 6,000 years old, but that age is reasonably accurate - determined by adding up all of the known ages of descendants of biblical characters (according to the bible), and then cross-referencing with known dates that the bible does reference.
Of course, it is still wrong, but to claim the bible does not "say" that seems odd when you can indeed add up the dates like that.

Unfortunately there are still people that think the Earth is 6,000 years old.
Little do creationists know that the Earth is way older.
Assuming the life of Jesus Christ in historical terms could be applied to the timeline of the Holocene era, it will be about 9,996 HE when he was born, whilst it would be at around 10,030-10,033 HE when he was crucified.
Through that timeline, Jesus appeared between the end of the 9990's to the start of the 10,000's.

Jay Gatsby Exactly
Yeah this whole temple date thing is just another weird arbitrary date. There is undoubtedly an older undiscovered monument. Not to mention that this temple doesn't represent any change in humanity globally. The only reason its being used is because it's 10,000 years before year ""0."" This has gotta be the first Kurzgesagt video that I didn't like.
Jay Gatsby if you think your gonna find another monument older that has hasn't been discovered, your very wrong. Humans have explored almost all of the land mass on Earth, unless we find some kind of structure under water.
+MrMarioman569 We haven't looked everywhere, not even close. We have probably found everything there is to find on the surface but there are a lot of things buried deep in the ground that we still need to find. Then there's the stuff buried off shore under the sea, where most of humanity's history lies.
We're founding out more and more about humanities past. Even the out of Africa theory is starting to be challenged.
I normally don't comment on videos as it obviously gets a little out of hand, but this time I just had to. I'm overwhelmingly extatic about this proposal. Even the "Common Era" which replaces BC & AD is still based on a system that was created for religious purposes by the Vatican. Human history will always be more important than a 'supposed' man's one life, and that's exactly the reason this new calendar must be implemented. Absolutely wonderful video!!! 😁
BCE and CE haven't replaced BC and AD. Maybe you think that because you are part of the very little amount of Atheists in the world. No one cares if your mother taught you that God wasn't real, you can continue to cry with your minority friends because 30% of the world (Christians) will not let this idiocy happen. Our ancestors have perfected this calendar for many many years and you are willing to add a digit 1 before those years? That shows how pathetic and lazy Atheists are, you can't even think of your own calendar LOL! Every document I've ever read used BC and AD because they were published by a certain 30% of the world. Also, stop thinking that Atheists are the "new generation" or the people who are always right. 50% of the world is affiliated with an Abrahamic religion and you guys are slowly becoming a smaller and smaller percentage of the human population. Muslims reproduce very fast and you losers taking pills and abortion is just hilarious. Continue to believe the lies you were told (that BC and AD were replaced by BCE and CE) and why are you living? Ask yourself, an Atheist has no place in life, really what is the point of you living? Can't you just commit suicide? Christians want to live a good life in order to enter the kingdom of God, why do you live?
Even if you aren't religious he was an important figure, he has effected all of human history since. Whether or not he was or was not the son of God, the Messiah, doesn't change how much he influenced history. I don't hear any atheists complaining about how basically everything in our solar system is named after Roman gods, or how the names of Greek and Roman gods have made their way into our scientific vocabulary. I also don't hear any Christians complaining about it. If we change the calendar it should be for better reasons than that atheists want to pretend Jesus wasn't a part of history.
Peter Njeim wow... the idiocy in this comment baffles me...
+Peter Njeim
Cool story, Cletus.
Peter Njeim You can respect Jesus & Christians and still think this calendar is a good idea. Honor Jesus by espousing his teachings, not by making all the calendar dates go around his birthday.
Also, the reason most of the world uses that calendar is because of European military power from 1500-1900 (or 11500-11900) - the rest of the world ended up using their language, suit fashion, law systems and calendar no matter which religion it was based on.
Every year with their calendar release, I come back to watch this video to appreciate how far we've come as species. Makes me grateful and the concept brings unexplainable joy to my mind of starting our calendar 10,000 years before because that's when we truly came together and started terraforming Earth ♥️
Me too!

The Diamond Games - Channel closed yeah it is a cool idea but i think it would be difficult to make it a official calender
thank you
it's not like if they think that makes a difference you know ,and It's not like they are the ones researching our history, one more thing , what's easier to learn that a war was in 102 BC or 1664 AC or a war was in9800's or 11,600's it's a pure example of a useless idea with no real thought put into it, the kind people joke about getting high

let's get a universal unit of measurement first.
still cool though
Some countries are just too lazy to adapt. And the US will refuse, due to problems in the manufacturing fields. Canada is currently switching, and had a plane crash because people forgot to convert the measurements for fuel from Imperial to SI.
We already have it but Americans and a few other countries don't
Pranav Nair exactly. The US needs to change
Ben Walters They tried, but just examples such as the Canadair crash were reasons why they're so hesitant to switch. At least they do use SI measurements in fields of science and engineering.

Raspberry...

Jam. Not the electronic jamming, but fruit(this case, raspberry) boiled in sugar and hermetically closed in jars for sweet and for long-term conservation of fruit.

I didn't know about the holocene calendar before watching this video. I really like the idea of switching to it. It definitely makes more sense than using a calendar based on religious events that are meaningful to a limited part of humanity only. It would also lead to a switch to a more universal perspective, consolidating the idea of humanity as a whole
I would love if the year would be 12,017 and all the religious people will start raging saying the universe only exists for like 6k years or something.
Being religous doesn't mean you believe the Earths 6k years old smh. I believe in God but also believe in Science, it's not one or the other.
x JayAyeWhy So if the religion tells one lie then it kills the entire religion as religion is supposed to be only truth, believers used to murder people who thought that their religion is wrong, this is why you see people being thrown off roofs in the middle east.
Infarlock I'm religious and I don't believe that lol. In fact the Bible suggest the earth is older then just 6,000 years as well.
Dumbbells Only Really? Where exactly in the bible does it state that?
***** I'm not saying it specifically states that, just like it doesn't specifically state that the Earth is 6,000 years old.
But the bible mentions Satan, and says Satan was cast down into Earth and corrupted it (not the exact word but similar to it) (and this happened before God went in and yeah did his thing)
so this suggest that dinosaurs and such probably existed before which supports an ideology that there are years that aren't documented.
I personally don't think it's even such a crazy idea
its a great idea
Except it will make the lives of many people miserable. Imagine all the websites and softwares that accept and work on 4 digit year format. Many frameworks will fail because of the date problem. I dont know how UNIX timestamp will behave. Think about all the past transactions that are stored in database - could be trillions of records as there billions of websites that would need updating..I think popular RDBMS like MySQL dont even support 5 digit format.. I think Its not as simple as adding 1 in front of date. It will be another big mess like Y2k but way way more painful

@@faizan101010 yup, but almost all changes that are beneficial in the long term are harmful in the short term. just like switching to metric, it would cause tons of problems in the short term but overall it will be better in the long term.
for the HE calendar it could be hugely important in peacefully bringing the Muslim and Cristian world together without discrimination while promoting a broader perspective on human history. personally I do think this would be a bad idea to implement in the present day because of how controversial it would be but given a decade or so I could see it happening, as society changes it will becomes more scientifically minded with less importance given to Christianity and more Cultures mixing in not wanting there religion to be considered a second class religion I could see this becoming a highly supported Idea
I love the name 'Human Era'.
Niel Relatado Islam and ISIS in general. Cancer like that will not care for anything.
chadachada123 no they are not extremist they do as the quran and the muhammed says.
jesus christ this got off topic quickly.
off topic about actual facts are better than an SJW argument. be happy about that
Saying something against a religion or their members isn't racist. Since when was muslim a race. Also there are more than enough depictions of Muhammed warmongering harder than Hitler did.
As a person who loves science, i really really like this idea; but I think there are major problems that complicate this way of counting years.
1) Everyone is just very very used to it and it would have a great impact around the world I guess. (Good is that it's only a one that needs to be added fortunately.)
2) And this is the biggest one I guess, the fact that a lot of things, churches, buildings, texts etc. have a certain date carved into their walls, or written under the texts, or whatever.
Suddenly changing the year count would make it much more difficult to historians, archaeologists and maybe scientist to date certain things. At least that's what I think; if someone think I'm wrong let me know because I would actually be relieved then. Haha
It wouldn't be that difficult for Historians to document the past with the new Holocene calendar. All they'd be doing is adding 10,000 years to the year count. The months and days would remain the same. As far as presenting difficulties for historians and archaeologists is concerned, this difficulty already exists with the Gregorian calendar we currently use. This is because the ancient Greeks and Egyptians for instance, didn't use the Gregorian calendar, they had their own ways of marking time.
I mean Also this is a question for historians not necessarily scientists.

Niels Novum you know genesis the first chapter of the Bible isn't supposed to be taken literally right?
Prime Time many christians still do, as did the hebrews and the early church. It was supposed to be taken literally, but now when we know better people try to change their views on the text so they don't seem to be lying behind the rest of humanity.
Niels Novum Being Christian doesn't automatically mean you believe in that. Any person who actually thinks the world is 6k years old is properly uneducated.

It's that kind of thinking that has got us in this mess. Our species is stupid and delusional. Technology has separated us from nature. We continue to increase that distance through use of 'products'. If we were smart we would be integrated with nature. And evolve slowly together. Who knows where that may take us. It may even open a path to places we cannot even imagine.

Is this true? 😱
prob not
We can say with confidence that this is the first temple, this is the oldest structure we can find, and 1,200 years isn't really enough to bury a whole civilization
Ismael Simental he’s saying that if and when it happens it will cause a problem. Also, the Gregorian calendar already goes back that far, it’s called the year 10,000 BC.
Fearghus Keitz which sounds better: 10000 years before year 0 or 2000 years

Well they are from Germany (i also live in Germany) so let's hope they will make the products available here as well. I'd gladly pay 20% more Euros for it (than dollars), knowing that the money will be used to make more quality videos.
I just love the idea and spreading it. However I wouldn't call it "Human era" (that begins with humans, and that would be 200,000 or even two million years ago, depending on what you emphasize: species or genus), so I propose here to use instead "ME", standing for either Monumental Era, Megalithic (big stone building) Era or just Mega-Era, what sounds quite cool and modern and may also imply it is an "enlarged" sort of era.

@@Ladyjuliet-uv5qt Unlikely, but not impossible. The risk to create a complete chaos in all the books&co. is too big to even try it. See how Egypt discovers things we had no idea about, it is not impossible to find something under a future highway or building and scrue the timing.

Can we sign a petition to make this happen in the USA or Canada, as it will show the other governments that this is correct?
petitions do nothing to something as standardized as time
Eutropios in order for a government to adopt a calendar, it must be the dominant calendar in use by its citizens. Basically, if you want this to be the calendar we use you just need to start using it and hope it catches on, but since it really doesn't do a better job of telling time than our current calendar, and only changes the date, it's highly unlikely to be widely adopted.
wtf you should maybe start with the metric system before changing the calendar..
Eutropios your fucking dumb theres no need for it just leave it and worry about something more important
Eutropios it would have to be adopted all over the world, since almost all of the world uses the current calendar. It would take time, and many would refuse to do it, but it would be possible. But still unlikely.

We really should switch to this new calendar. I get that the mid point between ce and bce is an important religious time but with the current calendar we are making things much more confusing than they have to be and somewhat neglecting a huge part of history.
Bruh
Easy, let's implement this calendar to talk about history as a whole, and let's keep the one based on the Birth of Jesus Christ as a "Traditional" or "Classic" one
The year zero is going to be pushed back farther and farther as research continues.
true
It will stay fixed, in the same way that modern research has shown Jesus was born a few years before year 0. Its the basic concept that is important. It is why the church was so keen on it and does not care if it is technical slightly inaccurate. It is why this concept is such a great idea for a secular and multicultural society.

Cool, but 12000 is only an estimate. It's probably not exactly 12016, maybe 11800-12200. Using a round number isn't that accurate, which is the main flaw of this system.
Ηι βγε it is close enough, and it makes it easier. Going from 2017 to 12017 is better than something else like 12217
Ηι βγε Well, the greogrian calendar neither is accurate. Year 1 isn't the real date of Christ's birth. And this mew calendar wants to acknowledge the whole human history, it's not about supressing Christian religion.
2016 is never accurate to begin with... unless someone can come up with HIS original birth certificate 2016 years ago.
Christ is not real though. The Gregorian calendar is arbitrary, but if we're basing this calendar off a specific date, and we can't even be sure it was that date... The question of whether this calendar is arbitrary matters because this one is specific.
(Sorry, but get over religion. Let's be real here, the premise of this calendar is already violating Christianity.)
We are not 100% sure if Christ was born at year "0", as well. So either way, it will have an accuracy as bad as the one we have now.
