jesus was born before year zero,its something to do with the way the origional religiouse historians counted back ,basicly one of the emporors had a name change half way through his rule and they forgot to add these years on there calculations to determine the year of his birth
it took the cult of jesus a long time to catch on basicly and the early roman church screwed the maths up with there plan to base all time on ad or bc.
