BCE

how come bce isnt allowed?

Beceause it's anti-Christian. Use a date based on Christ, then acknowledge it.--Aschlafly 19:18, 15 March 2007 (EDT)

its not anti christian all it does is treat pepole of other religions equaly somthing pepole like you seem to oppose.

Do you even know the meaning of BC and AD? What if I don't like that fact that we must use Arabic numerals? I think we should call them something generic, don't you agree? --<<-David R->> 19:40, 15 March 2007 (EDT)

yes in fact i do ad means annio dommni wich in latin means in the year of our lord and bc means before christ but i prefer more religously tolrent termnology.

You don't seem to be very religiously tolerant towards Christianity. And you haven't answered my question: should we change the name given to our numerals? --<<-David R->> 19:47, 15 March 2007 (EDT)

no in fact i am but i just dont like the radicals like the people on this site that feel that thay have to push coneservatism and christianity on others and no i dont feel that arabic numerals need to be changed becuse thay are not religous in nature.

oh and if conservatives arent how do you explain these quotes made by ardent conservatives

  • "The feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians." - 1992 Iowa fundraising letter opposing a state equal-rights amendment ("Equal Rights Initiative in Iowa Attacked", Washington Post, 23 August 1992); it is sometimes claimed that this statement appeared in Robertson's 1992 GOP convention speech, but this is not the case (see also [http://www.patrobertson.com/Speeches/1992GOPConvention.asp tran
  • "Big fat nancy nancy-boy faggot." Robertson, in a slightly more whimsical mood, describing a caller he didn't like.

It has muslim connections! I feel a bit oppressed by the use of this term. I really feel that we should change it. I am sure others would agree with me. How about: Seculahumanist Numerals? Yeah, then no one feels intimidated. :) --<<-David R->> 20:06, 15 March 2007 (EDT)

P.S. I don't know if other conservatives feel the same way as I do about those comments, but I surely do not support those statements in the least, except for the ERA statement. I find nothing non-factual about the accusations.

The complaining editor above needs to sign his comments and take them to an appropriate talk page. Thanks for your rebuttal for me here, David.--Aschlafly 20:12, 15 March 2007 (EDT)

arabic numerals

arabic numerals is in refrence to the arabic culture/civilisation not the muslim religion.

But the people of Arabia are muslim. Therefore "arabic" numerals is a islamic term. :) --<<-David R->> 20:26, 15 March 2007 (EDT)

so just becuse the pepole of arabia are muslim doesent mean arabic numerals are muslim.

Actually it does. And I find it very offensive that I am forced to have my numerals given an arabic name. In case you haven't figured it out yet, I do not really opposed to arabic numerals. I am just showing the stupidity of BCE/CE. --<<-David R->> 20:36, 15 March 2007 (EDT)
