His lineage is traced to David legally through Joseph in Matthew 1:1-17 and by blood through Mary in Luke 3:23-38.

Nah. That couldn't have happened. Nor could a council of men decide the canon, making sure that the most contradictory stuff got left out.
Could it be possible that it's all true?
Lineage through Joseph, who did not have sex with that woman?
Really?
As for the prophesies in the OT that jeebus supposedly fulfilled, isn't it queer that the prophesies were so old at the time of jesus' birth that no one living at the time would have had any firsthand knowledge of the previous prophesies, only supposed scripture written down years latter? So why would god wait so long so as to make sure there were no living people to corroborate his prophesy fulfillments? It's easy to see why lying scripture writers would do that, but not from the prospective of a real god..
