AD-BC

Was 0AD and 0BC the same year? They say that 2000 wasn't the start of a new millennium, it was the end of the old one, but then that's like saying that 0AD wasn't actually in AD, it was just the last year of BC, and that AD just started at 1. So does that mean that the moment christ died, it was automatically one year after his death?

what do you mean? BC was like negative numbers. and then Christ made the years positive. positivity! by his very birth, is all.

Yeah, but 0 isn't positive or negative. But you have to start somewhere before one full year has passed, and Jesus couldn't be born and die in the same moment, so they had to be separate years right?

Jesus? Who's Jesus?? If you're referring to the man known as Jebus, then i think it goes something like this. If I recall correctly Jebus was technically born between 6-4BC. And due to the fact that the lame AD/BC bullshit we use today wasn't created until 525AD, the dude who created the system got Jebus's birth year mixed up. And apparently he wasn't even born on dec25th. my suspicions are mounting...

but when i start to think about 0BC and 0AD being the same year, i can't help but fell that their must not have been a 0AD or a 0BC, and it went like this..2BC,1BC,1AD,2AD.

But i guess only jebus really knows :(
