BC, BCE, AD and CE: a petty hate

@mott-the-hoople said
Damn how ignorant. BC means before Christ, NO ONE knows exactly when Christ was born, Ive seen 4,5and 6 BC, the calendar seems to dispute all. . Christ was not widely known at the time. He was just born...(duh)
AD refers to the time AFTER Christs birth and is still used today, "in the year of our Lord 2023.

You seem to want it pinned down to a certain year, then go on to use the term BCE as acceptable to you..

Tell me exactly when this "common era" was?

You're not, uh...actually arguing that Jesus was born in the actual year AD 1 because AD 1 is by definition the year of his birth. Are you?

Please say yes.

now you see why I dont like liberalism…they live in s pretend world.

If you dont believe in God, you might want to think about why, with all the geniuses in maths, they still cannot figure out Gods time scheme.

Okay, 2 things.

1. You're American, right? Then WTF is up with you saying "maths"?

2. You may say you believe in God, but you're Republican, which means you only give lip service to Jesus, you sure as hell don't actually follow his teachings.

A Republican voter cannot be a true Christian?

The far better question is: would a true Christian promote Republican policies?

That's right. The Jesuits and the Pope created the modern calendar. Give your thanks to the Roman Catholic Church for that.

Algebra was named by the Arabs, as were many stars like Aldebaran. You can thank Islam for that.

There's no proof of Jesus's existence. Can't help you. In any case nothing special happened that year with respect to Jesus.
