    Do you know what BC and AD mean?

    They are religious based terms but what I find interesting is that athiests, scientists and non-christians use these terms as well.

    BC = Before Christ
    AD = Anno Domini is latin for "In the year of the Lord"

          I agree I never understood why it was still the terminology.

                      Lol I have never seen that before, I just read some science journals and they all say BC or AD look around.

                          My son is a freshman in college, and that is what they are telling him.

                          I really wish the world had some more politically correct bullshit to worry about.
