I used to be bothered by the use of "CE" instead of "AD" until I realized
that it can also mean "Christian Era". However, I still prefer and use "AD".
Wikipedia: "Common Era, Current Era, or Christian Era (this year is 2006
CE)."
Merriam-Webster: "chemical engineer, civil engineer, Christian Era -- often
punctuated; Common Era -- often punctuated"
Dictionary.com: "Com·mon Era n. Abbr. C.E. The period coinciding with the
Christian era."

IFF BC/AD/BCE as employed by Mormon/Christian are absent CONTENT then,
indeed you are correct. IMO, no word is employed without content, DavidM,
therefore, you are INCORRECT.
Y'all sound a little testy, David. That's why I mentioned anger.

Syntax/Semantics, DavidM. When the NAME is
employed, it is filled out with a meaning. If your
meaning and theirs (the Mormons) is one and the
same then, that's your problem.
In regards to our date system, when I say BC or AD, I think we are talking
about the same historical person named Jesus Christ. Do you see it
differently?

Watch that anger, DavidM.
Are you upset today, Lance? What anger are you talking about? I'm having
a
very wonderful, peace filled, Christ centered day, thank you.
Peace be with you.
David Miller.
