He was the \u201cFather of hundreds,\u201d he said, and buried himself back in his book. Conversation over. Respect demanded. Silence reclaimed. But Little Johnny didn\u2019t buy it.

Little Johnny, though, only grew more puzzled. His own dad had a big family too, yet no backward collar, no special costume, no mysterious explanation.<\/p>\n<p>As the bus rolled on, Johnny\u2019s curiosity hardened into something sharper: childlike logic mixed with disarming honesty. If this man was \u201cFather of hundreds,\u201d Johnny reasoned, the problem wasn\u2019t his collar at all. <\/p>\n<p>Leaning in, he offered the one solution no one asked for but everyone instantly understood. In a single brutal punchline about where the priest should really be wearing protection, Johnny shattered the solemn image\u2014and left an entire bus choking back shocked, guilty laughter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The bus was quiet when the priest gave his final, smug answer.
