Many years ago, I realized it didn't matter if a person believed in Jesus' miraculous birth, or any of the miracles. It didn't even matter if the person believed Jesus was the son of God.
It doesn't matter if you believe Jesus is a prophet, or savior. It doesn't even matter if you believe Jesus will return to marry and live 40 years raising children.
What matters is the influence of Jesus' teachings. That cannot be denied throughout 2000+ years of human existence.
The power of Jesus' teachings reveals the element of human nature that seeks to love, heal, care, and forgive - even in the face of gut-wrenching evil. This element in human nature may be more powerful as greed and fear; certainly more powerful than vengeance and hate.
