B.C.E. — Uggg, I like to tell the people that put this in that I now call this “Before Christian Era” instead of the B.C. and A.D. they have gone to this Politically Correct Crap. (If you didn’t know that they now say “Before Common Era” which is still the BIRTH OF CHRIST.

Like the Lion pic, excellent article BTW.

I think the terminology depends on your influences.

Not being PC or an archeologist, I still use BC and AD, as do some friends of mine, but they're loggers and insist that BC and AD stand for "Before Diesel" and "After Chainsaw".

BTT

I agree BCE and ACE or whatever is leftist BS and going back to BC WILL SAVE INK and TREES! WOW, are they ever conflicted. First BHO pixxing off the country and the world financially, now chopping trees. Where to turn, where to turn? The ignominy of it all.

I refuse to use BCE. It is Before [the birth of] Christ. Period. And Anno Domini, After [the Birth of] Christ. I will not deny my Lord.
