I've done a bit of research and it looks like 2010 is based on the birth of Jesus Christ, meaning our entire calendar system is based on Christianity, one religion.
Is this the only reason why it's 2010 today? If so, why have all people across the world (atheists, Buddhists, Jews, Muslims) adopted this Christian reference date?
