Do you find something objectionable about my "opinion"?
This is America.
And how is this relevant to a conversation about the chronological conventions of calendars?
Of course not. You made the excellent point that they used the same zero point and you made the sarcastic comment that that same zero point can be identified with exactly the same meaning to the abbrev that they’re trying to avoid. So you were right and you were funny.
I just made the point that trying to imply that using them means you believe in religion would make most of the world try to find a new zero point. No one believes in religion by using those terms. They ONLY believe in history.
