apostate

how are you today, reverend?
actually, I'm having a bit of an apostate problem.
oh, I'm sorry to hear that. I knew someone who knew someone who had one of those. a man, he was. well, of course, he would have to be, right? anyway, I heard it was terrible. very painful. had to have surgery. I guess it was quite enlarged. swollen and all that. made it hard to, you know, go to the bathroom, but had to go all the time. can you imagine? I wouldn't wish that on anybody, so I hope your doctor has given you good news. I'm sure everything will be ok in the. . .
not prostate! I said apostate! I mean one of my parishioners has decided to give up the church! quite upsetting.
oh! I see. well I hope he gets over his prostate issues too. such a terrible thing.
yes. I'll be sure and pass that along.
