Correction Acknowledged

Not only that but if we're celebrating the 2008th anniversary of his death wouldn't we have to wait another 30-ish years?
I stand corrected. The term AD means anno domini or year of our Lord whereas BC means before Christ. Both reference the birth of Jesus though the exact date is questionable.
A common mistake is that AD refers to the death as I have done rather than the birth.
My point that the entire world has essentially been acknowledging Jesus by the usage of it is factual, the last country to enact it being Portugal about 600 years ago. Not only that but it denotes Jesus as lord. It has been used by most nations for over a millenium.
The messianic prophecies declare that messiah shall indeed become lord/master/ruler of all nations when he comes to earth to establish his kingdom at Jerusalem on the Temple Mount refered to as Zion. It's interesting that for all these centuries the nations of the world have been acknowledging this (i.e year of our lord) either advertently or inadvertently.

Re: Inadvertent Acknowledgement
This catagorizes you as one of inadvertent ones who for one reason or another do not connect the acknowledgement relative to the common and universal usage of the term AD, i.e. year of our lord over the centuries.

Unless, of course, you don't use the words January and Wednesday. Or March (aka Mars). Or any of the many other names that acknowledge ancient gods.
It's nothing new to me that the days of the week acknowledge paganism. I accept that fact. Some secularists and pagans try to deny the calendar's historical relevance to Jesus.
