I have no problem with AD and BC, I’m a Christian sort of guy.
How do we refer to the 33 or so years Christ was alive?
WA?

Thanks, SunkenCiv for once again finding and posting a very interesting article.

BTW I maintain that BCE simply stands for “Before the Christian Era.” (Drives libs even more insane whenever used.)

AD stands for Anno Domini, the year of our Lord. That's the year Jesus was born. There's no 33 year gap.
