That's why I haven't used any.
Because many of the events and people are corroborated outside of the Bible........
Luke 2 (NKJV)
1 And it came to pass in those days
that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered.
2 This census first took place while Quirinius was governing Syria.
3 So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city.
Archaeology corroborates the existence of a proconsul named Quirinius in Syria and Cilicia from 11 BCE to the death of Herod (4 BCE). Josephus, on the other hand, recorded his governorship from 5 - 6 CE.
This destroys any semblance of a 'contradiction' between Luke and Matthew regarding the timing of the census.
