How do you get "porn star" from "pastor"?

I went in for a job interview for a position at school in the International Students Office. I was expecting a one-on-one and not a panel. I came in, shocked. My nerves got the better of me and I was nervous, so much so that my voice was soft and low and I stuttered, stammered, and mumbled.

One of the questions was: "What are your parents' occupations?"

I told them my mom was an accountant and my dad was a pastor. One of the panelists had a shocked look on his face and exchanged looks with the others. He goes, "I'm sorry, WHAT NOW?!?"

Then one of the panelists (who knows me) says, "His father's a pastor."

Then he was embarrassed and says, "Trust me. You do not want to know what I thought I just heard you say."

Apparently, he thought I said my dad was a frigging porn star.

HOW do you get "porn star" from "pastor"? It was one of the clearest things I ever said throughout the whole interview!

    If you made it clear then it shows where his mind is. It's like when someone looks at dirty pictures soon everything starts to look dirty even if it isn't. I know I use to be there, but then again maybe he really didn't understand you.
