>>>If there's a way to stop this PC madness, I' love to know what it is.
Think, act and behave counter-PC.
So, write and say B.C and A.D. Even when you see it written as BCE and CE, read them as B.C. and A.D. Or, better yet, as another poster suggested, use "in the year of our Lord xx," and "in the year before our Lord xx."
and be preparted to tolerate people who use "in the year of your Lord xx, and "in the year before your Lord xx"
