<div>Food for thought and maybe a little controversial for weak minds incapable of fair reasoning. I have in the past made comments of what makes a Hypocrite. For example it is highly Hypocritical for atheist and agnostics and even devil worshipers to celebrate the several Religious based Holidays that we take for granted in America. I am not trying to preach to anyone, Only pointing out a few things...</div><div>
</div><div>This is Easter Sunday where it is absolutely Not centered on a Rabbit and lost chicken eggs. Those things of interest are an adapted means to help celebrate along with going to Your once a year place of worship.</div><div>
</div><div>Christmas is a designated day of celebration about the Birth Of Jesus Christ. And like Easter there are certain things we have adapted into the celebration that have meanings as did the story of the Birth events. Like the Star in the east and the top ornament of the tree, The bearing of gifts as did the three travelers. Many try to pass off Christmas a Xmas... Claiming Jesus was born in the summer months. And that Christmas goes back to Pagan and Mythical Holiday times in early Europe. "Whatever?" What is Ironic, I have had atheist make claims that Jesus was NOT born on Christmas and that he has Proof that Jesus was BORN in the Summer. This is where the simple minds plays a role. He swears Jesus was born as he claims to be Atheist.</div><div>
</div><div>One more that will be one that you can not deny. The very Calender that you live your life by is solely based upon The Christianity. What does BC Mean to you. And then AD. That is the starting point of the days we are recognizing as the Days after the birth of Christ. BC time is reflective of the history of time estimated before the birth of Jesus Christ. Read this attached explanation then try to reason to me that your Sunday March 31, 2013 is NOT the count from the recognized day of the birth of Jesus. If you fight with everything you represent against all forms of religion then Why in "Hell" do you live your schedule counting the days after the birth of Christ. I think you should have been following the Mayan calendar or should have made up your own counting system as soon as you decided to deny anything and everything Christianity stands for and represents.</div><div>
</div><div>See the attached article below:</div><div>------------------------------------------------</div><div>B.C. and A.D.</div><div>In the modern calendar, we label all years with B.C. (before Christ) or A.D. (anno domini, or "in the year of our lord"). There is no "zero" year -- in this system, the year Christ was born is 1 A.D., and the year preceding it is 1 B.C.</div><div>
</div><div>This practice was first suggested in the sixth century A.D., and was adopted by the pope of that time. It took quite a while for it to become a worldwide standard, however. Russia and Turkey, for example, did not convert to the modern calendar and year scheme until the 20th century.</div><div>
</div><div>One interesting side note: Because of a variety of changes and adjustments made to the calendar during the middle ages, it turns out that Jesus was most likely born in what we now think of as 6 B.C., and likely lived until 30 A.D.</div><div>
</div><div>Besides B.C. and A.D., some people use B.C.E. (for "before common era") and C.E. (for "common era").</div>
