BCE/CE: That's Pepe-speak for BC/AD. Surely must be something politically correct and multi-culti and all, but I have no idea what it stands for.

Mr roT said...

Why "common"? Because Jesus is common to all civilized people or because only commoners care about Jesus and the few washed only are interested in sodomy?
