Isn't it blasphemy for someone to say Christ is "our" Lord if they aren't Christian? How am I being "anti-christian"? Who's being divided or demeaned?
I even said "AC" i.e. "After Christ" would've been an acceptable substitute and had the advantage of matching "Before Christ" which is in English. AD and BC is a mishmash of English and Latin that always struck me as weird.
The academic world settled on CE and BCE instead. I don't care. It's unimportant.
> Let's stop using Sunday thru Saturday cuz those relate to Norse religions
Does using any of those names imply that you believe Odin is the All-father?
