How impolite and vicious of you.
Putting different letters before or after the number of years since the birth of Christ, and pretending it doesn't signify the time before and after the birth of Christ is pretty silly in my view.
My sworn enemies, Communists and Fascists use CE and BCE as a tool of their trade. It's one of the things I use as a marker to identify them. You may not be my enemy, but you'll take friendly fire for wearing the mark of evil.
Nothing I said was impolite or vicious if you know history.
The Julian Calendar was an invention of pagan Rome, specifically, by Julius Ceasar.
It had zero to do with the person whom Christian deem the Messiah. Indeed, it predated Yeshua by 50 years or so.
Read the last sentence again.
The Gregorian Calendar (the one that is secularly used) was grafted onto to this pagan branch, retaining the names of pagan “gods” and Roman ceasars who would be “gods” as the months.
A perfectly good calendar has existed since G-d named the years and months on Mt. Sinai — the Hebrew Calendar.
Indeed, this actual Biblical calendar remains in use by the Christian Orthodox Church and by any number of governments not founded (however remotely) by pagan Rome.
If you want to celebrate Jupiter (Janis), Mars (March)and the rest of pagan “gods”, have at it.
I tolerate the paganism because the world has decided to use this old pagan calendar (which was a solar calendar) as a compromise, since it has been tinkered with by astronomers long enough to be accurate to make trains, planes, and spaceships fly correctly.
Pretending it has anything other than pagan roots, however, is absurd.
