I refuse to believe that you do not know one person that is acting like the father of a kid that is not theirs. Hell, maybe that "loser" was your father figure.

Instead of getting all confused about it, let's put it this way. Mary was an unwed teenage mother. While that might be slightly acceptable in North America or Europe, have you forgotten all the posts here about how brutal they are in the Middle East? For example, jailing a woman that has been raped, and that is in 2011. Now, turn the clock back 2,000 years.

Personally, sounds like Joseph was a pretty nice guy. $.02
