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
