One quiet ride left a priest shaken by a nun’s cryptic warning. Each time temptation distracted him from the road, she answered with the same calm reference to Scripture, leaving him embarrassed and increasingly confused.

In this fictional joke, a priest offers a roadside lift to a nun. As she settles into the passenger seat, her gown shifts, exposing part of her leg. Distracted, he briefly swerves before recovering. A few minutes later, he places his hand on her leg. “Father, remember Psalm 129?” she asks calmly. He withdraws, ashamed—but after changing gears, tries again. Her identical response stops him, and the rest of the journey passes without another attempt.

He shuts the Bible with a sigh: apparently, remembering a reference and understanding it were two very different things.
