[Sword of Christ]

Even if the gospels were factual when first penned, (which I think as likely as <insert something really unlikely here>), they have been altered over the centuries with additions and omissions by people to support their own agendas.

No the early Christians involved only agenda wasn't really in this world, hence why they tended to martyr themselves. And they had a genuine love for Jesus and what he taught. These people were quite a trustworthy source not some kind shadowy sinister conspiracy you think they were. These would be some of most pleasant, humble people you could ever care to meet, salt of the earth. It does get a little once the Roman Catholic Church was formed but that in the 4th century. They also had a great care and obsession of keeping their scriptures intact and would deride the gnostics for reeling out new gospel after gospel and writing in whatever they felt appropriate.

And of course they were altered by mistake.

They would have taken great pains not to as these were their sacred texts. They cared a great deal about this.

Yeah... no. To see why this is wide of the mark, look at the prophecy mentioned in The Phantom Menace, of "the one who will bring balance to the Force". Kenobi said that Anakin was "supposed to destroy the Sith, not join them"; and sure enough, a couple of decades later in the timeline - spolier alert - Darth Vader (née Anakin Skywalker) does just that.

No that wasn't the prophecy. Vader/Anakin brought balance to the Force by killing the last two of the Sith, that being Emperor Palpatine and himself. It doesn't sound stupid at all.

There you go - deadly accurate fulfilled prophecy. Except there's a revealing flaw in there, if you know where to look.

I don't know if it was deadly accurate or just kind of something that sucked. The prequel trilogy was terrible.
