**Pardon my ignorance but is “C.E.” B.C. or A.D.?***

I call it Christ Entered (CE) or Before Christ entered (BCE).

“Common Era” is “Anno Domine.”

“BCE” is “Before Common Era.”

I believe that means Common Era or A.D. In order to be politically correct we can no longer define eras as BC or AD which would be a direct reference to Christ as historically presented.

Thanks all. I wasn’t being sarcastic. I just never have got a handle on this political correctness stuff.

That’s an amazing find. Would love to be able to tour Israel for weeks.
