Question:

Are we living in the 21 century?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Yes.

The first 100 years begins with year 1. That is the First century. Once 100 years passes, on the new year's eve of year 101. It becomes the 2nd century.

Follow the pattern, fast forward. 20th century ended on Dec. 31, 2000. It is currently April 13th 2007, we are 7 years into the 21st century.
