How does the birth of Jesus affect time?

The method of calculatiing years in the western world comes from the birth of Christ. We are currently (at the time this was written) in the year 2008 AD. 'AD' stands for 'Anno Domini' - 'in the year of Our Lord' - in other words 2008 years since the Birth of Christ. before that years are designated 'BC' (like the building of Stonehenge around 3000BC) where 'BC' stands for 'BeforeChrist'. However, because of an innocent mistake in the early Church the date for Christ's birth was calculated wrongly - although it should have been 1AD (there was never a year '0'). Archaeological and historical evidence places Christ's birth around 4BC when the error is taken into account, but nevertheless the whole of the Western dating system is based on this one unique event.

That the date actually goes back to Rome with a festival called 'Saturnalia' . A lot of Romans at the time of the adoption of Christianity into the Roman Empire (AD325) had various feasts. It was a time of revelry, celebration, eating and drinking. It was at the same time both a solstice observance and a harvest festival. On the Julian calendar it was proclaimed in 46 c.e., that the Saturnalia would fall on December twenty- fifth.

What does A D mean in dates?

The AD stands for After Death in reference to Jesus Christ. ie a date like 200 bc means 200 years before the birth of Jesus Christ, and 2000 ad means 2000 years after Jesus Christ`s death. AD is a Latin term "Anno Domini" meaning "the Year of Our Lord" and references Jesus' birth not his death. So 2000 a.d. means 2000 years after Jesus' birth not after his death. And 100 b.c. means 100 years before Jesus birth. So time was divided by the birth of Jesus alone not his birth and his death. Events are considered happening before his birth or after his birth. AD doesn't have anything to do with Jesus' death.

Actually, we do not know the date of the birth of John the Baptist nor of the birth date of Jesus. However, the Church chose to celebrate the birth of Jesus on December 25. John, according to scripture, was about 6 months older than Jesus so he was given the date of June 24.
