I thought the Mayan one had come to an end...
Anyone is free to choose whatever calendar system they wish, even a dead one. For example the Mayan calendar purportedly ended in 2011 and if some group was inclined, a new calendar proclaiming 2014 as 3 M.C. could be invented where MC denotes the end of the Mayan calendar.
Nothing bars any group from inventing a new calendar, even the one that masquerades as BCE/CE. But importantly the motives for choosing BCE/CE are not scientific, the motives are political and the intentions are to revise history and bury traditional Christian heritage. That’s the point and that’s what’s wrong with BCE/CE.
And importantly the advent of BCE/CE is not stopping at the water’s edge of archaeology, it is also now in the process of being introduced into public schools.
What is disturbing is that public schools and all of government and commerce post today’s date as October 11, 2014. It is never posted as October 11, 2014 A.D.
The convention is to simply drop BC/AD when posting dates.
Why then is it necessary to commence posting dates in public schools as October 11, 2014 C.E.?
You see the deception?
