As a history minor, I can tell you I've used both. In JR High School, HS, and College it was BC/AD.

In Hebrew school it was CE/BCE

Put your big girl panties on and deal with it- it's not a big deal unless you are a Rabbinical scholar. This is another example of political correctness gone amuck.


Now I'm in the mood for some AC/DC tunes too.  :beer:
