A.D. isn't after death. It's Anno Domini.
The year of our lord.
Personally I like BCE and CE better. Before Common Era, and Common Era.

A. D. Anno Domini (The year of our Lord)
There is 1 BC and the next year is 1 AD, so there is no gap between there.

In the B.C.-A.D. system of dating, events that occurred before the traditional time of Jesus’ birth are designated “B.C.” years (before Christ); those that took place after are labeled “A.D.” years (Anno Domini—“in the year of our Lord.”) However, some informed scholars prefer to use the secular designations “B.C.E.” (before our Common Era) and “C.E.” (of our Common Era.)

Anno Domini is year of our Lord (which includes his life on earth .
B.C. is before Christ.
A more accurate scriptural way to determine a year is the Jewish calendar which started at creation; and I believe at Rosh Hashanah a few weeks ago the year changed to 5787(?).
