When I see CE or BCE in any article that’s as far as I read.

I see them as more universalistic than examples of political correctness.

If these people want to change A.D. and B.C., then to be intellectually honest, they need to change the numbering system for years. If the goal is to cleanse the calendar of any connections to the time of Christ, then it cannot be the year 2015. They could renumber and make it the year 7, as this is the start of the 7th year of Obama’s presidency, for example. Or say its the year 45, as we are 45 years from the first earth day. Pick some liberal milestone and start counting from there instead of counting from the time of Christ.

How do they explain keeping the numbering system of years as connected to the time of Christ, but also say we are not allowed to mention Christ as far as where these numbers for the years came from???

I refuse to participate with those that seek to change history. We live in the year of our Lord, 2015. Jesus Christ is what our society is based upon. Societies that embrace Jesus Christ flourish. Societies that don’t, rarely flourish.

Regardless of whether or not Christ is any more the son of God than me, the system of morals that he taught is the finest the world has ever known. I accept him as my one and only King, and I fervently HOPE that he will be the person I meet on the other side.
