		Mgw...I agree with James F that this is not a perfect solution becuase it perpetuates much of the POV of BC/AD, but I believe that this is nevertheless the most sensible thing to do.
		Since BCE is defined as BC and CE is defined as AD, just changing the name is (as said above) just putting a make-believe NPOV face on an inherantly POV concept: it makes believe, somehow, that the Common Era is not exactly congruent with the Christian Era.
		In my own view, BCE and CE were developed to deal with Christianity and try to remove Christian influence from the world.
