A man goes to a priest one day and tells him, “Father, I have problem. I have two female parrots, but they only know how to say one thing.” “What do they say?” the priest inquired. “They say, 'Hi, we are prostitutes. Do you want to have some fun?’” “That is obscene.” the priest exclaimed, then he thought for a moment. “You know,” he said, “I may have a solution to your problem. I have two male talking parrots that I have taught to pray and read the bible. Bring your two parrots over to my house and we will put them in the cage with them. My parrots can teach your parrots to praise and worship. Your parrots are sure to stop saying that phrase in no time.” “Thank you,” the man responded, “This may very well be the solution.” The next day, he brought his female parrots to the priest's house. As he ushered him in, he saw that the priest's two male parrots were inside their cage, holding beads and praying. Impressed, he walked over and placed his parrots inside with them. After a few minutes, the female parrots cried out in unison, “Hi, we are prostitutes. Do you want to have some fun?” There was a stunned silence. Finally, one male parrot looked over to the other male parrot and exclaimed, “Put the beads away, our prayers have been answered.”
