BC/AD...I don't know where BCE came from or what itmeans.
Caqn anyone explain?
If it is wrong to use BC/AD because we got Christs birthday wrong, when do these alternatives end and start, and why has the clanader not changed to reflect it?
We already recognise the Chinese Calander, and I often consult my chinese horoscope.
But why should we change our terminaology? It makes no sense?
I seriously doubt the ban of AD/BC will improve our standing in the eyess of different cultures.
Rather, I would think it makes them think we are weak pushovers, who are eager to please anyone who voices disagreement with our views and culture.
I never met a Muslim in the muslim country I lived in for 7 years mention they hated our calander. Seems there sre other reasons we have alienated people, but I doubt our calander has anything to do with it!
