"BC" stands for "Before Christ" "AD" stands for "Anno Domini" which is Medieval Latin, translated as "In the year of the Lord", it does not stand for "After Death". The Anno Domini dating system was devised in 525 AD by Dionysius Exiguus.
Assuming you know what AD and BC stand for, The objection is because these acronyms acknowledge Jesus and refer to him as lord (domini) and messiah/anointed (Christ).
The last date of BC was 1 BC, then the first date of AD was 1 AD, there was no zero.
