About a century or two ago, the Pope decided that all the Mallus had to leave Italy. Naturally, there was a big uproar from the Mallu community. So the Pope made a deal. He would have a religious debate with a member of the Mallu community. If the Mallu won, they could stay. If the Pope won, the Mallus would leave. The Mallus realized they had no choice. So they asked Sreesanth to represent them. Sreesanth asked for one additional condition for the debate: neither side would be allowed to talk. The Pope agreed. The day of the great debate came. Sreesanth and the Pope sat opposite each other for a full minute. Then the Pope raised his hand and showed three fingers. Sreesanth looked back at him and raised one finger. The Pope waved his fingers in a circle around his head. Sreesanth pointed to the ground where he sat. The Pope pulled out a wafer and a glass of wine. Sreesanth pulled out an apple. The Pope stood up and said, "I give up. This man is too good. The Mallus can stay." An hour later, the cardinals gathered around the Pope asking what had happened. The Pope explained the gestures and responses. Meanwhile, the Mallu community asked Sreesanth what had transpired. Sreesanth humorously narrated the gestures and responses, leaving the outcome open-ended.
