"How else can you explain multiple versions of each book; further, how else can you explain the selection of which particular version?"

What is the color of the robe the Roman Soldiers placed upon Jesus? Was it Scarlet (Matthew), Purple (Mark & John) or White / Brilliant (Luke)? Each color is symbolic, but different in meaning.

Same with the inscription above His head. Same with the events on Resurrection Sunday.

We Catholics use the operand 'and'. Our separated brethren use the operand 'or', and select which 'or' based upon what they happen to believe or would like to believe at the moment.
