I was well aware of the meaning of AD, and, as an atheist and a history student, i stick to using AD personally. It's what i am familiar with, and i think it's a bit pedantic to use CE.
I mean, when i curse i still say "Oh my God!" and call Christmas Christmas...I'm a Westerner, Christianity is part of my culture even if i am not a Christian. For the same reason i use AD.
