Keep in mind that archaeology is an international discipline. For many of the people doing this research, Jesus is not the Christ and not their Lord.

No, those people would not acknowledge Jesus as the Christ and bright morning star.

Riddle me this: what the heck is the common era? Truth is, they are still using the time of Christ's birth (well, off by four years, but who's counting?) as the baseline for their computations. Nothing has been changed, its just a PC PR move to obscure the truth and drive Christianity out of the mainstream.

The common era is using the supposed birth date of Jesus as its base. However, it leaves the question of his divinity (Christ/Messiah/Annointed One) out of the issue. Do you think that Jewish scholars working with israeli antiquities should have to use Before Christ in dating items when they do not recognize Jesus as the Messiah?
