[TheHulk]

...time we reference the year? LIke, it's been 2011 years since the birth of Christ, and I think its awesome!

If it makes you happy, go nuts.

Hahahaha,even greater that we're reminded of Thor once every week.

Jaysus was nailed to a cross,Thor wields a hammer....coincidence?

 

[AtheistCat]

And isn't it wonderful that we remind ourselves of the great god Thor every Thursday? Jesus gets a reference for the year, but Thor is greater because he gets referenced 52 times every year.

 

[berty]

actually, we use ? BCE now, which mean before common era, and we use CE instead of ad, which means common era, so we don't reference jesus when we mention the year.

In the year of our Lord.

 

[NeedsAdjustment]

Just wait till Thors Day, your god's gonna get his arse kicked.

The Gregorian calendar was only invented in the 6th century AD (along with the concept "AD") Before that there was the Julian Calendar where the first month of the year was June

It's 2011 years after beginning of the 'common era'

Christ is believed to have been born in 4 BC. (before common era)
