I'm NOT changing my calendar

RE: USING BCE AND CE INSTEAD OF B.C. AND A.D.

Citizenbfk says: "I'm NOT changing my calendar."




This challenge and changing or our Western world’s common calendar dating system is annoying. I was trying to read up a Wikipedia story and I found the dating system of BCE and CE distracting --- and it’s questionable to challenge and change the dating system of the Western world for the last hundreds of years. Is Wikipedia and others who do this trying to be politically correct? -- Who says this is politically correct? Muslims? Jews? -- 'It seems foolish since the pivotal date is still linked to the birth of Christ'.

I’m not a Christian anymore but I was raised so and see value in that culture and the "golden rule," for those Christians who actually practice what they preach (i.e. treat others like you would like to be treated: the one and only commandment of Jesus Christ) -- but, even though my personal beliefs have evolved I’m sorry, I’m not changing my calendar and won’t link to any articles that do - and find it impossible to read through them since I find the changing of the current worldwide Western calendar system is distracting, and that single fact is perhaps the most valid consideration in writing: does any change make it better or worse? easier to understand or not?

Changing the dating system brings up other issues unrelated to the content of the Topic, what I’m interested in reading about. It’s distracting and annoying.

I’d encourage Christians, btw, to 'wake up,' about this subversion of their culture. First Christmas becomes Xmas, and Saint Santa Claus more important than the birth of Christ, and TV all about Old Testament stories and Zionist spins of the story of Jesus (like 'King of Kings') which wraps up the story of Christ with Zionist revolution against Rome -- sickening, truly sickening. And now we have a dating system that deletes Christ...well, I’m not on board and who exactly is?

And any soft soap that wants to wash this away as minor or understandable is slush or slurry, tripe or trash, (take your pick). A fundamental tenet of the Western world is being subverted right under our noses and something doesn’t smell right about it.
