Sad to say, but this is the least of the problems I have 
encountered with
the CE. At one point, when researching the Controversy of the 
Three Chapters
(one of the many twists & turns of the dispute over the nature of 
Christ),I found that the CE actually lied about its effects in the 
West. Its
account of the resulting schism in Northern Italy clearly made it 
seem as
if the dispute was resolved within a life time, when I knew from other
accounts that it persisted for about 150 years.
Uh, if this is the same CE that can be found online, it may be helpful to note that that edition is from 1911.
Why use something from 1911?
