Also, some people in this discussion have drawn parallels between this and imperial units of measurement. HELLOOOO?! It's not really like you need to *convert* between the two, you know?! Or maybe I just somehow missed that 1 year CE is actually equivalent to 3.573495764 years AD?
Just as some people cling to old units of measurement, the "standardists" in the AD/CE debate cling to AD and BC because they are used to them, not because they are Christians.

It's fun to be deliberately stupid, isn't it? I particularly liked the way you cleverly snipped the evidence that cut you off at the knees. That was well done.
I think we're done with this bit of the discussion anyway.
