I first noticed CE/BCE cropping up just over 20 years ago. At the time, it appeared to be motivated by anti-intellectualism (AD is Latin) and a vague desire to dechristianize the calendar.

AD is Latin for year of the lord.

Anyone who is a student of Elohim's Holy Word knows
that YHvH who created the universe would be offended
to think that the first 4000 years was rejected.

The use of the term AD is an insult to the loving G-d
who created this time-space continuum for us.

Thank you for expressing your personal opinion on matters.

I think you're wrong.

As usual.

Good Day.

Anyone who is a student of Holy Scripture knows that God who created the universe would be offended to think that the first 4000 years was rejected.

Acknowledging the year of Christ's birth is not a rejection of time before then. God, the First Person of the Holy Trinity, is not so delicate and overwrought as that.

The use of the term AD is an insult to the loving God who created this time-space continuum for us.

Quite the contrary: the use of the term AD is an expression of praise and joy on the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the Second Person of the Holy Trinity.
