It doesn't pay to get too rational.

Homo Sapiens, age uncertain, sex dubious (possibly hermaphrodite) expired last Thursday following a series of explosions in its Middle East. Death was ruled a probable suicide, as the patient had also been suffering from depression and a self-induced high temperature in recent decades. A possible terrorist attack by an outraged Deity has not been ruled out.
Homo S. is survived by some closely related mammals, as well as a majority of birds, fish, and insects, who are bearing the loss with philosophy. “He was more trouble than he was worth”, said a gorilla who wished to remain anonymous.
Burial will take place by earthquake, with arrangements in the hands of Mother Nature.
