Anno Domini and Before Christ, but you already knew that, right?
Even biblical scholars now agree that in their view Christ was born some time between 4 BCE and 6 CE.
And yes, that is the nomenclature now used. BCE= Before Common Era and CE = Common Era. Meaning things start at the year zero, as biblical scholars just can't nail the date they want.
You know, the thing about that 10 year pregnancy of Mary?
