I don't know if this is the right place to post, but I know a lot of people read the Humour section, so I thought this was my best chance of getting an explanation. I am well aware of the fact that over the years, various calendars have been both implemented and doctored, but aside from that... Jesus Christ was born on 25/12. Is that 25/12/00 AD or 25/12/01 AD? Let's say He was born on a Wednesday. So, is the day before, Tuesday is 24/12/00 BC, or 24/12/01 BC? What about the day before that? Is it Monday 23/12/00 BC or 23/12/01BC? Etc, Etc, Etc
