Many people never even learn the Nativity is stitched together from two totally separate stories (one in Matthew, one in Luke)https://twitter.com/cstross/status/813119262466441217 …
they kind of contradict each other, too - Matthew says Jesus is from Bethlehem, and they move to Nazareth bc of Herod
-
-
Luke says Joseph and Mary were already in Nazareth, and go to Bethlehem where Jesus is born bc of the census
-
so the stitched-together story says they started in Nazareth, go to Bethlehem, then come back to Nazareth
