Hi all,

I recently read in a book that december 22 is the shortest day in a
year, to what extent this is true..???

1) is there any scientific basis for this claim ?

No day is any shorter than any other. They're all 24 hours long.

Daylight duration is shortest at the solstices, twice/year. One is
ever amazed that Yahweh and his three religions are astoundingly
incapable of assembling a decent calendar.

Russia's October Revolution was in November, Israel's calendar has
whole leap months, and the Muslim calendar is beneath contempt.
