        :? I've always thought that BC meant before Christ and AD meant after death...so the 33+ years is the life of Christ on earth?

        A.D doesn't mean \"After Death\" LOL

        it means \"Anno Domino\"....\"In the Year of Our Lord\".

            U are confused because u keep thinking it means \"After Death\", so u count from Jesus' death.

            1 A.D is the very year Jesus was born, \"The First Year of Our Lord\". The year before He was born was 1 B.C, \"One Year Before Christ\".

            btw, i made a mistake, it's \"Domini\", not \"Domino\"....I must be hungry thinking of pizza that's why LOL
