Why would some find the birth of Jesus so difficult to understand?
Pdolaghan
The birth of the person called Jesus is generally accepted as a historical event that did happen and he did exist as a person. Though, maybe not as described in some literature.
What a lot of people don't believe in, is that he was the Son of God.
That is for you to decide.
