I know, the bible is full of inconsistencies. Weird that the same guy also preached something along the lines of "when someone slaps your face, offer the other cheek" and told one of his apostles (Judas) to distribute the money he collected among the poor. The same hippie that also expelled the merchants from the temple with a whip. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you".

And that is "just" the philosophy ones. The biography details are massively different.

Which isn't surprising given that it was all made up by illiterates. Of course they couldn't keep the details straight. Heck I have problems remembering what I had for breakfast last week and Peter was supposed to remember how many imaginary people went to an imaginary tomb and what they saw?
