Agreed. I use AD, BC and BP (Before Present) - but I will not use CE.

I cannot help but read "Christian Era" when I see CE and, indeed, I saw the "new" terms for a long time before I discovered their purpose was to expunge Christianity from the history books. I had wondered why the change from "Before Christ" to "Before Christian Era."
