Christians respond with dismay and disbelief to any fact that is given in the Bible upon which all four Gospels do not agree, but the only point upon which all 4 Gospels agree is the "Jesus rode a donkey".
They never see that 3 Gospels report that Simon, and not Jesus, bore the cross that identified "Jesus King of the Jews", so they do not accept that the one remaining Gospel that reported that Jesus bore his cross may have done so because that witness was unable to identify Jesus, just as the Jews could not and had to rely on Judas to kiss him for an identification,and because all 3 crosses bore the same inscription of Jesus King of the Jews and that the Gospels are also saying that Jesus was not the name of the Christ and that Christ bore no cross.
They do not see that no Gospel mentions 2 thieves for the crucifixion before all arrive at Golgotha, which is the collective way to say that the Romans tricked the Jews into believing that only one man, alias Jesus, was to be crucified.

There are at least 45,000 Protestant churches in the U.S.
What caused all these different beliefs if the MESSAGE is so clear?
What makes you believe that you have more than a 1 in 45,000 chance of being in the 'correct' church?
Virgin Birth - A preconceived notion?
What is the Imacculate Conception?
An Imacculate deception?
Betcha don't know.
Did Jesus give up Saturday for us?
Jesus? Christianity? .
If Jesus died, he could NOT have been God.
Gods do not die? Do they?
If Jesus 'died' on Friday and 'undied' on Sunday, what else besides Saturday was sacrificed?
If Jesus died for our sins, there should not be any more sins, else why go through with it?.
If Jesus really DIED, he should be dead, dead, dead!

It is not clear what you are trying to ask or say.
There are differences in the narrative details of the different Gospels because these were four different individuals looking at the same event from four different angles. This is true with any reporting. That does not deny any fact or prove that they did not know whom they crucified. That is reading between the lines by clever crooks. Not all three crosses had the inscription. Read through the entire Gospel narratives and see whether they really knew what they were doing.

You really are astounding. Your presumptions are incredible. Were you there? Did someone in the crowd tell you "I cannot tell Simon from Jesus"?
If all 4 Gospels said the exact same thing, would there be a reason to have 4 of them? Each disciple remembers something different about Christ because of what Christ meant to him, but reports substantially the same narrative.
Is your experience of Allah the same as your neighbors? Does your reading of Muhammed's writings render the same interpretation as your those of your friends?
Likewise would four of you write precisely the same story about the same person if you were to narrate the important points of three years of that person's life?
If you believe in the Qur'an, why are you then entering into the vain argument decried of between Jew and Christian as discussed in The Cow, 2.110 through 2.113?
Indeed, the Qur'an paints a distorted view of Christianity and lumps Christians in with Jews:
5.18: claims that Jews and Christians think they are higher than mortals (we know we are mortals subject to the Lord)
9.30: claims that Christians say Christ the Messiah was the son of Allah (we know Allah to be a false god)
You are like a snake. You speak sweetly and pretend to honor Jesus, but your aims cannot be good. 5.51 exhorts Muslims not to be friends with Jews or Christians.

I see the Bible as an interpretation of events. If me and three of my friends attend the same party, but do not hang out together, we would have four different views of the events of the party.
That's the only way I can make sense of the differences. The minor details don't matter much to me. I try to look at the "big picture," (which is Jesus is the son of God).
(The most annoying is the story of Noah's arc - it mentions he gathered the animals in two, and another verse mentions they were gathered in sevens!)

There is no need to impose religion on others. Unfortunately a lot of Christians during these times feel they have to. The only urgency in life, is to evolve by loving and caring for one another. The truth will be known to all in time.

If any Christian focused on the whole bible at the same time the world would implode because the bible has so many contradictions in it that reality itself would warp if anyone tried to reconcile them.

Give it a break, You're not going to prove any christian wrong.
that's less instresting than how could adam and eve's son marry a woman if adam and eve were the only humans on earth with the sons.
It doesn't disprove God, because we don't know all the answers. we're not all knowing, we're not God.
