Is there any official explanation that Christians have for this? Or, do they just write it off as one of the "patented replies" people use when they don't understand how someone can be told two (or three...) contradictory things and believe that both are literally true?

I'm honestly curious to hear from the devout how they resolve this conflict. It seems clear to me that the three accounts in the four Gospels cannot all be true, so I'd like to know what kind of thinking goes into accepting that the works are literal and infallible.

If anyone can enlighten me, I'd be pleased to listen.

NB,,,,Out of the three Gospels you mentioned, I believe I would go with

John. He being the only apostle at the cross.
