The greatest B.C. & A.D. question (of all time):?

Just was thinking...if everything Before Christ (B.C.) in the Roman/western calendar.. is before birth... and everything on the switch-side is A.D. (After Death)... then WHAT HAPPENED to the other 33 years, in between? And moreover, what happened to that first week in-between Dec. 25th and ultimately the 1st day of Jan. 1st -- just kidding, I know the Church set the Xmas date for celebration just 100s of years ago...

The greatest B.C. %26amp; A.D. question (of all time):?
The AD is Latin for "Anno Domini" which means "In the Year of Our Lord". In reality, what happened was that Jesus would have dies somewhere around AD 33.
Reply:you really know your abc's and d too of course
Reply:Actually AD is Ano Domino or "Year of our Lord". The switch from BC to AD is based on the calculated date of Jesus' birth (as far as I know). In reality, his actual birth (if it happened) could have varied from 10 BC to 10 AD.
