Sherri Shepherd Should Crack a Book

Apparently, Sherri Shepherd just isn't too clear on the whole "BC" thing. Another one of her comments on "The View" leaves me dumbstruck (yes, the word "dumb" was put in there on purpose). Check out this post:

The View's Sherri Shepherd Doesn't Get That Whole BC Thing, Insists "Jesus Came First"

Posted by Danny Shea, HuffingtonPost.com at 7:08 AM on December 5, 2007.

Earlier this year, Shepherd said she didn't know whether the world was flat.

For whatever reason, the ladies on "The View" were discussing ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus this morning. Naturally, talk soon migrated to the topic of religion, and Sherri "I don't know if the world is flat" Shepherd came out to play. More specifically, to spew ignorance and a complete lack of understanding of basic world history! Discussing whether Christians were around during Epicurus' time (Epicurus lived from 341-270 B.C.), Sherri chimed in, "[The Greeks] had Christians 'cause they threw them to the lions."

When Whoopi tried to cautiously navigate her through the timeline of basic world events, saying, "I think this might predate that," Sherri responded, "I don't think anything predated Christians." Joy's attempt to explain the Greek-Roman-Christian chronology was futile, as Sherri insisted, "Jesus came first before them." Sherri's argument was all the more powerful due to her convincing "use your finger to write on the table" trick, but she can't fight the facts. Perhaps if Barbara were on today she would have explained THAT WHOLE B.C. THING (you know, as in, Before Christ).
