Never heard of bp, only bc, ad, ce and bce. Since I am opposed to the common practice of deleting Christ from everything including Christmas, I define them as the Christian Era and before the Christian era, if for no reason other than pissing off snobby pc academic elitists.

BP is before present, so 5000 BC would be 7000 BP.

It will ALWAYS be AD and BC to me. ALWAYS. Resist having your mind messed with, and God taken out of your life.
