I have a submmited date param whose data type is date and want to use the Time object and the date param to judge if the date param passes the today. I use the following codes judging: ######### date.yday-Time.now.yday<0 ##########

why not just date < Time.now ?

You could use the to_date method to compare the actual dates (or use
change(:hour =>0) which discard the hour minute and seconds components)
