Pupils have to be able to recognise these terms when they come across them.” So should we BC or BCE?
All of us tend to use the most significant dates in our lives as reference points for all the others.
If we're doing it wrong we should change it, but it's far too late to make changes.
Use of BCE and CE has been growing in recent years, but they aren't nearly as new as many Christians seem to assume.
Defending the change, the British Qualifications and Curriculum Authority argued: “It’s not a question of one way is wrong and one is right, more a question of which is most commonly used.
CE/BCE is becoming an industry standard among historians.
Indeed, the root of the word anniversary is the Latin for “year.” Just as important years are widely used reference points in the lives of individuals, so they are for entire cultures. Although it is 2015 today in the United States, such a number might indicate a far different year in other cultures throughout history.
Domination is frequently founded on little things that people take for granted and/or don't feel are individually worth the trouble of fighting.
Collectively, though, all those little things add up to quite a lot and make domination far easier.
There are several good reasons to choose BCE and CE over BC and AD: Perhaps it isn't much, but every time you use BCE and CE instead of BC and AD, you are refusing to submit yourself and your writings to a Christian agenda that is all about asserting dominion over culture, politics, society, and even your very thought processes.
Sometimes it is the little things that keep resistance alive and active.
