No, the world was not created in seven days and the Earth is not 40,000 years old, although I have heard some protestants claim the world is only 10,000 years old...

Anyway, the Census is when they went to Bethlehem, but you are forgetting something; first, the dates are not necessarily reliable that you put forward, and second, Herod's successor was another Herod! So there is no discrepancy there. By the way, most historians tend to believe that Jesus was born around 4 B.C., although I don't think there has been any proof one way or the other.

And you say you have looked OUTSIDE of the box on this subject? Have you looked around, near, or INSIDE the box? At ALL? Because if not, you are guilty of the opposite crime you claim we have made. I encourage you to read Founding of Christendom by Warren Carrol, as I have said before. He is an incredibly unique historian and he knows what he is talking about. At least read the chapters (in volume 1) pertaining to the validity of the Gospels.
