I think women used to get stoned to death in those days, for having sex before marriage. Maybe Joseph loved her, and so he supported her story to protect her.
Or maybe it was God.

Yes, immaculate conception is the doctrine that Mary, mum of the christ-child, was born without original sin. It was actually added to christian doctrine quite late, because some theologians got to thinking, hang on, you can't have the son of god born to a woman who is tainted by original sin. Of course the whole "original sin" thing is barmy anyway, but that's the way theologians think, apparently.
