My atheist nutjob alert goes off whenever "CE" is used or you watched too much History Channel growing up.
I don’t guess you read much or have much mental capacity so I’ll help you out.
“Common Era” and “Before Common Era” was coined by German mathematician and scientist, Johannes Kepler, in the early 1600s while teaching at his Christian seminary school. BCE and CE are now universal across all countries and religions when speaking of dates on the Gregorian calendar. So you see, BCE and CE was invented by a Christian seminary teacher, is based on the christian calendar, it has become universal.

I mean....don't cut and paste something as if you're reciting it from memory then insult someone's intelligence.

The way I heard it, the expression “god is in the details” was used by early scientist in Europe. As most (all?) of them were Christian scholars, naturalists, curious about the finer workings of the Almighty.
Somewhere along the line, as more and more got into the expanding field of science, that expression got flipped.
‘Devil is in the details’ became widely used, thanks in part to some guy named…Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche.
Interesting.

And what is the defining event between BCE and CE? Oh, it's the birth of Christ? I'll be damned. So the use of BCE and CE is a solution in need of a problem. I guess the problem being how to make history more secular? BC and AD worked just fine for millennia, and still does to this day.
