Also, instead of saying “AD”, translate it to English - “the year of our Lord”.
And for those who say there can’t be any religious references in public schools, hold them to their own stupid standards. One week of the teachers having to figure out what “1st Day, 2d Day, 3d Day, 4th Day. 5th Day, 6th Day and 7th day,” will drive them nuts. You see, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday were all named after “gods.” So were the names of the month, by the way. For the sake of consistency, they should be named, “1st month, 2d month, etc.”
Of course, that begs the question. Why does the first day of the week have to be Sunday? Also, what great event happened that split history between the so called BCE and CE?
You just can’t get around it. Christ happened.
