Actually, they don’t term it “Christian Era” - they use “Common Era”, since the whole intent is to remove Christ from the reference.

It wouldn’t make any sense to change from the real notation to the CE/BCE notation if you don’t remove Christ.

Of course it wouldn't.

My fault . . . I didn't put out the /s tag.
