COME DOWN OR I WILL CUT THE TREE

A retarded boy who is mute and deaf climbed a coconut tree. His parents asked him to come down because they are afraid he may fall down. But as if they are just talking to a wall. So they requested the village chief to help them ask the boy to come down. The village chief was shouting at the top of his voice calling the boy to come down, but the boy never listened to him. It happened that the pastor was passing by, so the parents ask the priest to tell the boy to come down. The priest obliged, and got close to where the coconut tree is. The priest started to talk to the boy and as if he is waving his hands to the boy. And the boy hurriedly went down.
Bystanders were amazed because it did'nt not take a minute for the priest to ask the boy to come down the tree. So they told the priest, "Father, you are really holy because you were able to ask the boy to come down. Did you say a prayer for him or did you blessed him?" The priest said, " No. what I said is, are coming down or i will cut the tree?"
