"Almost all of the world's religious calendars are based on religion, astrology, or myth:

The Baha'i calendar is based on the date that the Bab declared that a new manifestation of God would appear.
The Creativity Movement, a racist, sexist and homophobic religious group, bases their calendar on the date when their religious book was published.
The Hindu calendar is based on a planetary alignment in 3102 BCE.
The Jewish calendar is based on their belief in the date of creation.
The Mayan calendar was based on the day that they believed that Venus was born.
The Muslim calendar is based on year of the hegira -- the flight of Muhammad from Mecca to Medina."
