New York Times crossword puzzle editor Shortz goofed on the Sunday, March 23, edition by listing “Herod” as “king in 1 B.C.” Any biblical scholar knows he died in 4 B.C.
Besides that, Shortz could start using the more academic B.C.E., in my opinion.
Wonder if anybody has called him on this yet?
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
