It is all about feelings - political correctness. Political correctness has no place in documenting history. History is about facts, not feelings. The CE reference is fabricated and unnecessarily confounds reference checks for all history in Western Civilization, not to mention it tends to deny and diminish the impact of a figure in history. History should never do that, no matter how distasteful that person or event is (e.g., Hitler, as a person we would like to diminish and forget). Again, history should be recorded FACTS without the filter of feelings.
BC and AD are simply the initials that have recorded our time and history for 2 centuries: a method of recording that is found in all historical documents relevant to learning history in Western Civilization. The use of CE is a sign of an altered and unreliable historical record.
