Luke's use of the census was a literary device, not history. Just like today, Romans counted people where they lived, not where they were born. It makes zero sense to ask people to pack up and move just to count them. Romans weren't stupid. The census also took place in 6CE.

Statistics aren't anecdotes. As for fear, we don't fear getting shot nearly as much as Americans. Nor do we need to allay our fears by arming ourselves to the teeth with 12 times more guns.

Nobody thought this was possible because it is not. Trump can sign other states' sovereign territory over to Israel all he wants, but this won't alter its status under international law. The Golan Heights remain Syrian territory occupied by Israel. Yours, Captain Obvious

Candace Owens has just worked out that the French Foreign Legion shockingly...... has non French members. That's the whole point of a foreign legion. It's formed from foreign recruits. That's why they have been world famous for almost two centuries.
