Yes, that's the point. He attempted to refute the claim that most of Europe was using the Gregorian Calendar in the 18th century by saying England adopted the calendar in 1752.

Just as I imagined, you dug a deeper hole trying to defend your lack of historical perspective. I'll type slowly so you can understand

1) Britian adopted the Gregorian calendar in 1752 (about 20 years before our revolution)

2) Therefore, the founding fathers would not have grown up using AD in their daily lives

3) British govt documents were dated using the reign of the current monarch, not AD

4) In conclusion, the founding fathers chose the specific words "in the year of our Lord" for a reason. That being, they no longer recognized the king as Lord, but only Christ

I'm not sure how to make it any more clear than that for you
