Millions of people on this planet still have racist attitudes and are offended by the sight of the face of a member of a race that isn't their own. Should we therefore remove all photographs of people from Wikipedia? Even more people are offended by the sight of a woman's face...
Similarly, people are offended by images of violence, by diagrams of sex organs, by American spelling, by the colour of links...
You see, just because we don't all agree to your proposal, doesn't mean that we don't acknowledge that something may offend you, or that we think it is silly to get offended at it, etc.
It's just not practical to make Wikipedia so that it won't offend anybody.
Also, by proposing that AD/BC should be banned from non-Christianity-related articles and then supporting it by saying that you are offended, you are quite conveniently ignoring the millions of people who are offended by CE/BCE in general.
