Any time I see the letters BCE, I know it is coming from a Christian hating bigot. No other possible reason to use that term.

What's the problem? BCE just stands for "Before Christian Era." Or at least, so I tell anyone who is adamant about using BCE instead of BC!

Actually, I believe BCE stands for "before common era".
