I'm talking about the fact that we're in the year 2015... and anything before that is referred to as Before Christ? (BC)
Does it bother you that most Christian scholars believe that the dating does not accurately represent when Jesus was born?
Not at all, I already knew that it was a rough estimate and not an exact time.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
