Why do we contine to use the AD/BC year system when things point to Jesus not even being born in year 0 (If he ever lived).
It's just an arbitarily set point, why not just call it Before Zero and After Zero, or just simply +/-. Is the public to stupid to change this concept? Would they need a new arbitarily set point for this to happen, which would make life somewhat harder for historians?
