i need advice.. can Atheists come up with a valued argument? How on Earth, if God of the Bible isn't real, is time based off Jesus's death/res.? Can it even be explained? Everything before is just.. before he died.. in reverse..lol i mean, can you argue there's a chance this could have happened by Evil Money Lovers? Do the books line up with that? We know when every book was written, atleast the ones pertaining to Jesus's life, right? Sorry if this is confusing.. i dont know where to post this. i just want advice on.. can an Atheist refute this? if this is the wrong forum.. please just close the thread and tell me where to post it. warning me isnt good.. im not trying to get in trouble. thank you

Time is not based on Jesus' death, one of the calendars (yes, the most widely used) is based on roughly a few years after his birth. Time is usually based on the motion of the earth in space and is relative to ones position in the universe. There are other calendars with other beginning dates that have nothing to do with Jesus. I am not an atheist but this is fairly common knowledge.

1,982 or 1,983 years ago actually
Anno Domini didn't start when Jesus died, it started when He was Born/Conceived.

The year that Jesus was crucified is disputed, Passover is used as a guide to identify it as we know the execution happened on a Friday. The only year that would line up is said to be 30 AD.
Some say it is 31 AD and other (due to His age) say it was 33 AD.


The terms BC and AD are already being replaced.

BCE (Before Common Era)
and
CE (Common Era) are now being slowly filtered in.
Another sneaky move towards marginalizing and pushing out Christ.

As mentioned before, time is not based on Jesus Death/Resurrection. Our calendar system - The Gregorian Calender (Gregorian calendar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) is widely used and accepted internationally today. The Anno Domini (Latin for "in the year of the/our Lord") system of numbering years, in which the leap year rules are written, and which is generally used together with the Gregorian calendar, is also known in English as the Common Era. Years before the beginning of the era are known in English as Before Christ, or Before the Common Era. The corresponding abbreviations AD, CE, BC, and BCE are used. There is no year 0; AD 1 immediately follows 1 BC. More here: Anno Domini - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Bible's reliability and validity is hard to argue against. But, that's totally different than this topic. The calendar system has nothing to do with that. All our calendar system tells us is that the Catholic Church had a great influence on society in history and many countries have stuck with this calender system ever since then. A better question to ask would be: why is Christianity still around today when Jesus died so long ago? Shouldn't religions die with those who start it?

This is probably the wrong forum to post this in and you would get better responses in the Theological forums. It's up to you if you want it moved or not. You can always PM a moderator for that.

if the scriptures (or the existence of God) could be confirmed through facts that can be perceived with the 5 senses, there would be no atheists. God has chosen that people must believe in Him by faith, and there will be no concrete irrefutable evidence in this life.

something Andrew Womack said comes to mind. when he was in Vietnam most of his fellow soldiers professed to be atheists in principle even if they didn't come right out and say this; but when the bombs started falling and the bullets started flying, everyone cried out to God for mercy - there are no atheists in foxholes

no one comes to know Jesus unless God draws them (John 6:44); and although God does draw everyone to Jesus at some point in their lives (2Pet 3:9), His timing is based on the condition of their heart, which only He can know. so don't worry about people who would claim to be atheists or argue about the existence of God or the validity of scripture - witness as God leads you to, and trust Him to draw everyone to Him at the appropriate time.

Revelations does reveal the Second Coming of Jesus Christ that would definitely put an end with all the sin-causing doubt and confusion. Once Jesus has defeated Satan, the transformation of our new minds and bodies will become so Christ-like that nobody would use any kind of discrimination towards anyone when it comes to sex, race, age or specialized knowledge.:
Specialized knowledge is a job skill or educational skill level, eg a doctor has a skill in medicine but does not have a skill in engineering as a car mechanic.Very rarely would you find anyone in your local community who can be both a doctor and mechanic. As having a new mind of Christ, the possibility of having more than one career has taken logic to an unlimited and unexplored intelligence of speed learning and memory power, where Jesus is able to remember everything about us as he becomes our spiritual partner for life in our hearts.:
Much more than moral righteous spiritual support is our future-coming city of free accommodation and free health meals: the kingdom of God that should be structurally indestructible from destructive forces of mother nature or even a falling Earth-size asteroid with a blast force of a thousand nuclear bombs .;'*';.
