Nativity Narratives: Are Christians Just Buying the Brooklyn Bridge?
Luke 1:26-56
Paul’s letters contain no suggestion that Jesus’s birth was accompanied by any miracles. Mark’s gospel doesn’t mention his birth at all. Many modern Bible scholars and skeptics agree that the nativity stories of Luke and Matthew are simply the legends of a later generation. But if that is the case, what do we do with Gabriel’s visitations to Zechariah and Mary, Elizabeth’s and Mary’s miraculous pregnancies, the shepherds, the angels, the wise men, the star? Do we dismiss their stories as folklore, subjects for Christmas pageants to sentimentalize over once a year; a lovely dream that never came true? Only if we are fools do we do that, although many in our age already have and, let’s face it, in the moments of darkness in our own lives, each one of us has been tempted to do it, once or twice, ourselves. One has to wonder though, if the Christmas stories are just a fallacy, why do so many people spend so much money trying to buy the Brooklyn Bridge?
