GegenEvangelisation – Abschaffung von christlicher Zeitrechnung und Religionsunterricht – BBC

CH: Kanton streicht Beiträge an kirchliche Zeremonien und beabsichtigt die Streichung der Beiträge für Religionsunterricht
 
Bishops' outcry as BBC drop BC and AD
 
The BBC has defended a decision to drop the terms BC and AD in preference of CE and BCE, despite criticism from bishops. Aaqil Ahmed, head of the BBC's religion and ethics department, said of the decision: "it is appropriate that we ... do not offend of alienate non-Christians". Archbishop Vincent Nichols of Westminster said: "I think most people would be happy with the traditional dating system which has served us well for 1,500 years." Anglican Bishop Michael Nazir Ali called the move a "dumbing down of the Christian basis of our culture"....
