The Virgin Birth 5: You'd never suspect it was the same person!

Here I counter the objection that, if the name "Jesus" were not connected with both accounts, you'd never suspect that the infancy stories in Luke and Matthew were about the same person. They are just sooo different!  If interested, you can see more along the same lines in a couple of old blog posts that I wrote in 2016, including one called "The extreme probability of one's own life," a phrase borrowed from C.S. Lewis's essay "Modern Theology and Biblical Criticism."   http://whatswrongwiththeworld.net/2016/06/the_extreme_improbability_of_o.html
