The only dating I have ever heard of...including in history classes at university is the BC/AD dating. Until recently this is what was used, period. At least in the civilized portion of the planet.

A seed is not a product and you have failed to produce a calender...you choose to be dogmatic and hence we have come to a standstill.

I enjoyed discussing light hearted things with you, but wish to move on now...thanks for the chuckles.

“The only dating I have ever heard of...including in history classes at university is the BC/AD dating.”

You are woefully uneduated, then.

“Until recently this is what was used, period.”

No, actually the Gregorian Calendar was an invention of the middle ages, 24 February 1582 CE, specifically, and based on the pagan Julian calendar.

The AM dating system of the Hebrew calender is far older.

“At least in the civilized portion of the planet.”

I had no idea Israel, Greece, and most of eastern Europe was not civilized. Indeed, I thought most considered Greece to be the cradle of Western civilization.

“you choose to be dogmatic and hence we have come to a standstill.”

No, I choose to be factual. Facts apparently disturb your worldview.
