Because the AD designation is derived from Latin "Anno Domini" or "Anno Domini Nostri Iesu Christi" in full, which means "Year of Our Lord Jesus Christ". Apparently some people in the past decided that the year when the Creator of the universe visited mankind by becoming a man should be the central date and the point of reference in all human history. So they devised a calendar based on what they thought was that date.

What is the significance of beeing born on 11 11 11?
Anyone born on 11/11/11 would currently be almost 2000 years old. The significance of their birthdate to them would be that they died nearly 2000 years ago. There cannot be any occult significance to any date AD. AD dates are calculated from the birth of Jesus Christ, and Jesus Christ is not an occult figure. (Pagan religions have different ways of calculating dates, and the real ones don't count to base 10 anyway).

The rapture of the church?
There is no "rapture" of the church, as this is not in the Bible. The rapture is a man made teaching that is based upon the words "caught up" in the book of Thessalonians. (1 Thess. 4) The belief is that the church will be raptured away to heaven before the second coming of Christ Jesus. The problem is, the verse they base this rapture theory on IS describing the physical second coming of Christ. It is AT the second coming of Christ Jesus that the church is "caught up" to meet Jesus in the air, NOT before.

Do jehovahs witness believe that Jesus Christ is the reedemer?
Well I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses and I can tell you truthfully that yes, we most certainly do believe Jesus Christ to be the redeemer of mankind. We base all our beliefs in the Bible and it says in John 3:16: "For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life." That 'Son', is God's Son, Jesus. I could go on and on on this subject, but I'm pretty sure I just gave you the answer right there; yes. :-)
