For western churches, the situation is different: the Roman Church introduced a new algorithm in 1582, but countries adopted the new calendar gradually, until the mid-20th century. Therefore, it is difficult to determine in which calendar for which year to display the date. That is, the year 1582 has neither astronomical nor political significance, it is just the time of the proposal for a new calendar. I guess it should be parameterizable values. But most of the algorithms do not even take this into account, calculating the date of Easter in 400 according to the Catholics algorithm and displaying the date according to the Gregorian calendar, which, in my opinion, is absurd (remember that from the point of view of Christianity, all regulations and innovations of Catholics are heresy).

Apologies for the misinformation about Christmas (I think that was me; I was in any case under that same mistaken belief). But let's not refer to anyone's faith as "heresy" here, please. This is a programming site, not a place to get into a literal religious debate. --[[User:Markjreed|Markjreed]] ([[User talk:Markjreed|talk]]) 15:48, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
