No, no, Sauron, I meant that part. They had noplace to go. If they'd had any money, they could have come a week earlier and gotten a nice place to stay; or maybe if they were prosperous they would have had camels or something and could have gotten to Bethlehem sooner when there were still some vacancies.
No, believe me, you don't give birth in a cattle stall if you've got the cash to do better.
But, Sauron of Mordor, I wonder if you are in any sense of the side of the Beatitudes. Which is it going to be, Sauron? Angels or Orcs?
My real-world personality is in neither camp. I'm more like "Leave me alone and I'll leave you alone. Be nice to me and I'll be nice to you. Try to harm any member of my family and I'll cut you open and strangle you with your own intestines"
