Suppose I am going to write a fiction. I am incorporating a number of history facts into my story. Does it make my story real and true? - Albert Ip

Many things bothered me about the stories of Jesus, because the four Gospels didn't exactly compare and that became a problem for me, because if they were all divinely inspired by The Son of God, they would all be identical, and totally truthful. But they weren't identical - or, as it turns out, truthful. Some stories didn't match, some things simply didn't make sense. They were 'non-sequiturs' - quotations out of context. Questions that were answered with answers that didn't fit the questions - but fit the Christian doctrine. - Dirk Vanden
