When do YOU think the Christian Calendar was invented?
Some Christian guy, a Bishop (or a Monk), came up with the idea when 'Christianity' was the dominant religion.
"AD (or A.D.) is an abbreviation for the Latin expression "Anno Domini", which translates to "the Year of Our Lord", and equivalent to C.E. (the Common Era). Anno Domini refers to the years which followed the supposed birth year of the philosopher and founder of Christianity, Jesus Christ. For the purposes of proper grammar, the format is properly with the A.D. before the number of the year, so A.D. 2018 means "The Year of Our Lord 2018", although it is sometimes placed before the year as well, paralleling the use of B.C.
The choice of starting a calendar with the birth year of Christ was first suggested by a few Christian bishops including Clemens of Alexandria in C.E. 190 and Bishop Eusebius at Antioch, C.E. 314–325. These men labored to discover what year Christ would have been born by using available chronologies, astronomical calculations, and astrological speculation."

Jesus studied in Egypt. Or so they say.
"In 525 C.E., the Scythian monk Dionysius Exiguus used the earlier computations, plus additional stories from religious elders, to form a timeline for Christ's life. Dionysius is the one credited with the selection of the "AD 1" birth date that we use today—although it turns out he was off by some four years. That wasn't really his purpose, but Dionysius called the years that occurred after Christ's supposed birth "The years of our Lord Jesus Christ" or "Anno Domini". "

When was Jerusalem "built?" I thought like most cities it was built over decades and centuries.

It was.
SEVEN CENTURIES BEFORE MUSLIMS WERE, AND CHRISTIANS' MESSIAH WAS A JEW.
AND IT IS IN ISRAEL, STUPID FUCK, WHERE IT WILL REMAIN...AS THE CAPITAL, AS IT ALWAYS WAS.
THE MUSLIMS ARE JUST TRANSGRESSORS THERE....
NOT IN PALESTINE/CANAAN. THE HEBREWS TOOK IT FROM THE CANAANITES...WHO HAD NO CITY LIKE JERUSALME, WHICH WAS BUUILT BY THE ISREALITES, FOR THE ISRAELITES.
This came before everything else;
AND THEY DID NOT BUILD JERUSALEM, EITHER.
HYSTERICALLY FUNNY , DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO DODGE THE SUBJECT.
YOUR SURRENDER IS ACCEPTED....
FLED THERE WHEN HE WAS A BABY. HEROD WAS A PRICK.
TURNED INTO A GREAT CITY OF THE JEWS ABOUT 1,000BC...BY KING DAVID.

While you are absolutely correct Jerusalem is in Israel, and by extension is one of their cities, Muslims also have a place there. Muslims don't have a Right to the city in whole anymore than Christians or Jews on the issue of religion. It is a multifaceted city of religions. Since Israel allows freedom of religion, which I might note most of her Islamic neighbors don't, I don't see what the problem is outside of Dar al Islam where religious intolerance and hate clouds the argument.
