As with gay, Ms, the term BCE is another case of leftists wickedly corrupting the language. The "BCE" method of dating is particularly pernicious since it's liberalism denying the pivotal role of Christ in history.
Well, this is an Israeli publication. They’re Jewish, not Christian.
And yet it stands for Before The Christian Era? Way to go for the morons to keep Christ out of history by adding extra letters and an extra word to accomplish..............NOTHING!
Well, since Jesus was not born at year zero (6 BCE) your point is simple evidence of ignorance.
Ironically they’re still using Christ’s birth as the turning point in history; they’re still counting by the number of years before, or after Christ’s birth. but they’re trying to deny this by changing the reference term, from BC to BCE. Typical political correctness - a denial of reality.
Cut them a little slack: it’s an Israeli newspaper, and it is one of the well-known differences between Judaism and Christianity (having nothing to do with leftism or liberalism) that Jews do not regard Jesus of Nazareth as Lord (and do not use AD) or the Christ (and thus do not use BC).
“BCE? Oh, you mean ‘Before Christian Era’?”
