Gee, that CE/BCE complainer must have a real beef with archaeologists and historians of the ancient world. Considering the fact that by all accounts Jesus lived until he was 33-ish, it makes for a horrible "point" divider on a timeline. FWIW, every documentary I've seen on The History Channel uses the CE/BCE terminology.

Well I'm still not entirely certain whether this was another complainer or random religious spam, but there are lots of people who do complain, and yes, they're all rather put out by archaeologists, historians, professors, textbooks, etc., being "politically correct". I've been surprised by the amount of vitriol the subject incites.
