So many fails in this thread....
It's a politically correct term which attempts to hide the fact that it's referring to the time before Christ.
The "arc"? Please, read the story before you make such comments.
The Hebrew bible doesn't use the word "camel", the Hebrew bible uses the word "ga^ma^l", meaning a 'load bearing animal'. Why don't these folks who write such articles research such simple things?

For some reason I find the idea of two kangaroos on the arc to be one of the funniest things I've ever considered.

The Hebrew Bible, or Old Testament refers to camels as pack animals as early as the story of Abraham. Though there is no archaeological evidence of Abraham's life, many in the religious and scientific communities, including Chabad and the Associates For Biblical Research, cite the 20th century BCE as his time of birth. If the new evidence is correct, however, this suggests discrepancies between the Bible and human history as explained by science.

The BCE stuff is stupid.
Using the term BC or AD dosen't make you a Christian.
It reminds me of the small people that don't capitalize "God" in a sentence because they are afraid that people will think they believe if they do.

It is a term used by devout Jews at least since I was a child, which was long before anyone coined the term "political correctness" and convinced people it was really a thing.
