CE means “Common Era” and is the same as AD

Example: 2012 CE is 2012 AD

BCE means “Before Common Era” and is the same as BC

Example: 500 BCE is 500 BC

Just another way for the enlightened to remove Christ from the conversation.

It would be much more accurate to use the Jewish calendar, but we can’t have everything. ;’)
