Feel free to insult and froth all you want. I have no complaint with you wanting to use a Jewish calendar. If you're Jewish then you should, though I'm sure you realize it doesn't go over too well in modern society.

But when you talk about the number of years since the birth of Jesus Christ, and you pretend that it's it's not the number of Years since the birth of Jesus Christ by placing CE or BCE after it, then you're assisting Communists and Fascists in their quest to destroy the civilization that Christ's followers have built.

Facts are not pretending or frothing.

Because of the accuracy of the star-worshiping Romans, they made a nice solar calendar.

I am happy use the Gregorian Calendar as a secular calendar, but accepting the pagan beliefs inherant in the calendar have long been a source of discontent in Judaism and most of Christianity until the last century or so, until train time tables (and the need for a uniform calendar) have made acceptance of it practical.
