I guess you can make it 1001 comments about BCE or CE as they are both stupid and hateful. They are stupid because they have no meaning at all. Common era? what in the world does that mean?

Hateful because the only possible reason to use it is so you will not use Christ.

Actually I would feel the same way if the original method had been before the fall of Athens in the Peloponnesian War. Changing the phrase while using the same dates is just stupid.
