We don't know how old he was but we know for a fact he walked a 100 miles???
Did you read your own link?
Quote:Also, I personally cannot imagine an elderly St. Joseph walking 100 miles from Nazareth to Bethlehem to register for the census, or walking from Bethlehem to Egypt to flee the wrath of King Herod.
Uh yeah, I read it, and that's exactly what I said... that he couldn't have been an old man if he walked 100 miles. Not sure what you're trying to say.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
