So if religion is ever to be fully annihilated from our Brave New World, a new system of dating is required. The solution being promoted in academic circles the World over is the Common Era or CE system. CE is just like AD, except it is 100% God-free! Everything from 1 AD forward is now the Common Era, while everything before 1 AD is now Before the Common Era or BCE. Common, in this case, meaning vulgar -- which is, after all, what religion is to the elite. No matter how you slice it, Jesus still split time in half :)

A good mnemonic for this would be BCE = Before Christian Era and CE=Christian Era.
Hehe

Actually, I think they stand for Before Christian Era and Christian Era. Sounds OK to me ;)
