The Bible, possibly the greatest story ever told, to some, a simply narrative, to others encoded messages, to some the direct word of God. However, there have been a number of attempts at film versions of the life of Jesus. Just for fun, I'll attempt the nativity (Billnutt, I can't wait to see your list for this). Remember people, this is just a bit of fun!
The baby Jesus - well, I imagine he should be a real child, as an animatronic Jesus might offend.
Mary - Penelope Cruz or an unknown
Joseph - Alfred Molina
Wise Man Number 1 - Samuel L Jackson
Wise Man Number 2 - Hugo Weaving
Wise Man Number 3 - Ian McKellan
In Keeper who lets them stay in the shed: Ray Winston
In Keeper 2 - John Cleese
In Keeper 3 - Steve Coogan
Old Shepherd - Peter Ustinov
Young Shepherd - Haley Joel Osmond (too old for Jesus)
Angel Gabriel Paul Bettany
Donkey - obviously Eddie Murphy, he does donkies so well.
Mary and Joseph were the hardest to cast, I'd appreciate help from anyone else.

I'd rather see Weaving or McKellan as King Herod, actually!
Molina as Joseph is inspired, but I'm not sure about Cruz for Mary. I think you need someone very young (not unlike the girl who was in the recent movie, who had previous starred in WHALE RIDER).
I say wait a couple of years and use the little girl from PAN'S LABYRINTH!
