I attended a Catholic run University. There was a Christian Brother there who taught a history class and he used B.C.E. and C.E. instead of B.C. and A.D.. I thought it was odd. This was at the start of all of the social justice bullcrap.
Now looking back, that was nothing compared to what this current Pope is doing to secularize the faith.
In this story B.C.E. and C.E. is referring to Before Common Era and Common Era.
It appears the Pope is a progressive. What do you think?
