Seriously, my last post in this thread so I don't succumb to the temptation and get banned (Patristics is seriously my job).
BUT, if you want to call yourself an historian, you seriously need to stop putting "AD" after the year. It goes before the date. BC after, AD before.
Ex.: The Council of Serdica was held in AD 343.

I just looked it up and you're right. I've read so many history books that use C.E. and B.C.E that I use their style and format to write down dates. I'll try getting into the habit of writing AD before the date.

Actually most historians use CE and BCE these days.
