Just to quickly note: The CE/BCE dating system was first established by Christians themselves when they realized that, under the AD/BC system and with current available knowledge, Jesus would have been born between 2 and 6 BC. This of course makes no logical sense, hence the new method. As a historian myself, I use the CE/BCE method.
Also, before folks quickly condemn it, although the official and actual words used are "Common Era" and "Before the Common Era," a person could read them as "Christian Era" and "Before the Christian Era."
