Using the language of the crucifiers honors the crucifiers. English is the language of free people. BCE and CE are English.

I have never heard anyone else condemn Latin as the language of Christ's crucifiers (he was railroaded by Amamaic-speakers, and those who carried out the crucifixion probably spoke Greek). As a Christian, I believe that as members of "Adam's helpless race," we are all Christ's crucifiers. As Charles Wesley wrote in 1738, "Died He for me, who caused His pain? For me, who Him to death pursued?"
