4-6, was it? Close enough

. Actually, if you want to take it a step further, you could say that he was 30-something years off - because in Christian theology, the death & resurrection are much more important than the birth.

The current trned is to try to get calander set to a more trackable event.

The 4-6 year time difference actually refers to the posible candidates for the "Christ Star":

1) 4 BC: a super nova
2) 6 BC: All the planets were in alignment.

Wing Commander is more than just a game. It is a lifestyle.

They've changed the system now, from BC/AD, to BCE/CE.

Well... it's a name change really, and has no actual effect in such.

Quarto: It's more than 30 years, probably way more, because the tracking of the actual years in Christian Theology was sketchy before Christ.

I like shorter sentences

You are right about the difference in acronym's, not quite sure what point I was trying to make at the time.

Whats wrong with the quotes on this board? And whats up with 65 responses and 29 views?

 

[WildWeasel]

Don't reply to ancient threads.

 

[TC]

Especially to ask really pointless questions A while ago one of the board upgrades killed the old quotes... nobody really cared or noticed enough to bother fixing them.

 

[DoomsdayPlague]

I didn't relize how old it was. I was just wondering what was causing it.

 

[TC]

Out of curiousity... how did you not realize you were replying to a two year old thread?

 

[DoomsdayPlague]

Didn't look when the last post before mine was made my stupidity (nobodys perfect you know)

 

[WildWeasel]

Yeah, but in order to even get to this thread, you would've had to go pretty far back through the archives...

I think I clicked a link or something and just posted I wasn't paying attention at the moment and I then clicked on the bar like this: WC CIC Chat Zone > Wing Commander CIC Forums > General Wing Commander Chat > Some diversity in WC-universe (the General Wing Commander Chat part of it to see how many posts and views which led to the earlier question and it wasn't locked up or anything so I posted it and you guys responded and now were here) thats what happened.
