They're quite right. Though the ERB series has pulled in a few religious figures, the editors intend this to be a somewhat "agnostic" wiki. Respectful, more like.

And yes, the "Common Era" (CE) is a term that reserchers have created to be religion-neutral. All three Abrahamic faiths (Jews, Christians, and Muslims) document the same events enough that the time periods are in common, but each recounts the events differently from the others. Modern science has some pull in this as well, thus all groups wanted something that could be agreed upon.

But I don't think the system took into account the peoples and faiths of the Orient, which have all been on their own path of progress as other cultures were being centered on Abrahamic faith from wherever they were at.
