More from Bent Landau: But Matthew seems to think that they lived in Bethlehem, and that they only leave Bethlehem because King Herod is trying to kill Jesus; they then resettle in Nazareth after Herod dies and his son takes over. So they provide totally different explanations of the Bethlehem-Nazareth situation.

Ah ha, Brent seeks to undermine the Scriptures. Matthew says "After Jesus was born in Bethlehem" Matthew 2:1. It doesn't say Mary and Joseph lived there always as Brent implies. Another Red Flag.

More from Bent Landau: All in all, there are multiple layers of historical difficulty with the infancy narratives.

Okay, so if they are almost entirely made up, then why did Matthew and Luke create these stories about Jesus’ birth?

Uh Huh, just as predicted - more undermining of the Bible based on conjecture. Final RED FLAG. BUSTED!
