    Indeed, like Mary was a "virgin" ... LOL.

    Funny how Eve succumbed to the snake and ate the apple but Mary still had her cherry.

    Whatever happened to the three wise men anyways?

    Maybe it's in the New Testament, but in American society, nobody ever says anything about them, other than one night they appear, hold an impromptu baby shower, then they disappear in thin air, never to be heard from again.

    In the Book of Matthew, King Herod had encouraged the Wise Men to go find this Messiah and report back to him. He didn't tell them it was because he wanted to get rid of the competition. After they saw Baby Jesus they were warned in a dream not to go back to Herod. They returned home to "the East" instead. According to the Bible, Herod then ordered the execution of boys younger than two in and around Bethlehem.

    Ah. Thanks.

    I wonder what happened to them after they returned home. Did they go around telling everyone about finding the Messiah and their dream, or kept quiet? Did they live long enough to find out about grown-up Jesus, or did they die beforehand?

    Stuff like this, and how Cain's wife suddenly comes into the picture after creation, I find interesting.

    If Jesus is the biological son of Joseph, then there's no point to any of it.

    If I continue to read this thread, I'll wind up in hell.

    There are all sorts of stories about that in the Jesus Expanded Universe. But I'm not sure that's canon anymore after Disney took over.

    We'll have to wait for the next prequel trilogy.

    Or maybe it'll be a standalone "Jesus Universe Story."
