........acknowledging the vicarious sacrificial death of the Son of the Biblical God, Jehovah for the redemption of all mankind of all nations, tribes and tongues who this night are acknowledging this event as the NEW YEAR!
I think you'll find that most people who celebrate this alleged "vicarious sacrificial death" do so at Easter.
The first of January is the feast of the Roman god Janus, from whom the month gets its name.
Where do you get your information from?

Re: Correction Acknowledged
My point that the entire world has essentially been acknowledging Jesus by the usage of it is factual ...
This is obviously untrue, isn't it, since the BC/AD numbering system is used as a convenience by people (such as myself) who "acknowledge" no such thing, just as I call the first month "January" without "acknowledging" Janus, and just as I refer to "Wednesday" without "acknowledging" Woden.

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.

Re: Inadvertent Acknowledgement
Some secularists and pagans try to deny the calendar's historical relevance to Jesus.
This is a lie.
You know that this is a lie.
You are a liar.
I don't see what more I can say. What you claimed is not true and you know that it is not true. You must know this. You are a liar.
Stop it.
