Why do we divide history between BC and AD?

532 views

I understand what each one means. As well as BCE and CE. But I’m wondering why did we feel the need the number the years according to Jesus’ supposed birthday. And if it was so flawed (nobody even knows if Jesus was real, let alone when his birthday was) why did we keep it going? Could you imagine what year we could be in right now if we counted them normally?

Everyone Jesus is pretty well accepted as having lived, it’s his divinity that is the question.
