Funny thing is, the ARTICLE uses it, that’s why remarks — particularly your stupid and hateful remarks directed right at me — are pointless. Since you know that CE stands for Common Era, don’t bother to pretend you don’t know what that means.
Of course I know what “common era” stands for, what is strange is the words common era are meaningless as a replacement for AD.
Just what does common era mean? Is this the most common era? was the time of the Trojan war the most common era? The phrase is simply meaningless and was chosen for no logical reason.
