If I owned the land, I would treat the inscription as though it were a survey monument and leave it in place, beneath the building or not.
It’s akin to an archeologist finding a section marker placed a century ago, then removing it to place in his museum.

The title would no longer be valid, but expect heirs to the land to turn up any minute now.

I really don’t thing the Jerusalem Dispatch “rails against G-d.”

Wow, it took 11 posts before someone objects to Jews not adopting Christian dating systems.
If you prefer, we could use the non-pagan Roman dating system and say it the year 4760, give or take.

Technically, no.
AD is Anno Domini, or “In the year of our Lord”.
CE tries to push “Lord” or “God” out of the conversation.

You’re correct there - but they deny Jesus’ existence and Deity, thus they remove him from the public square.

No. We just rather not personally make a theological statment with which we disagree. To do so would be to mock that statement.
