The Airplane Thing

Jon: Yeah, it's so much easier to tell your parents you're atheist when you're brother's a fucking priest[0]! I'm even godfather to a few people...
Me: Wait, what is a godfather anyway?
Jon: It means you're supposed to help bring them up as good Christians.
Me: Then how can you be godfather to an airplane?
Jon and Ashley: [General confusement and notes that you *can't*]
Me: I'm sure I read this book once where these people were godfather to an airplane...
I kept laughing about that for nearly the whole night. Jon said he'd ask his brother. As of now, I haven't heard from him about it.
