Well no doubt, but it’s bad history to walk away from the history of the system that you do use.

Oh, BTW, Dominus Exiguus was a Greek. ;) The distinction between the Greeks and Romans especially in that time period (early 6th century), really doesn’t make much sense. That was after the fall of Rome, during the revival of the Empire under Justinian. The East considered themselves the Romans and the Church was the church.

Hence, the system of dating BCE and CE - to orient to the system without perpetuating the myth. The fact is, most people that get bent out of shape about this don't even know about the discrepancy - they simply knee-jerk to think it is a conspiracy or political correctness.

No doubt some use BCE and CE for political correctness, but there are many, many of us that use it because we are more interested in accurate history than we are in perpetuating Roman Catholic traditions.
