CE stands for Common Era or Current Era, coinciding with AD (Anno Domini, Latin for "Year of (our) Lord." It is a way of utilizing the current Western calendar without recognizing what is common with this current era. Ironically, it has come to mean the Christian Era, too. Year 0 is commonly called the year of Christ's birth. This "backronym" is due to the fact our common era is due to the historic event that happened 2012 years ago. It would be like referring to the Nazi era of Germany without mentioning Adolf Hitler or describing the origins of Apple Computers without Steve Jobs. This avoidance of facts is how BC (Before Christ) has been modified to BCE (Before Common Era).
