context1: The hornlets are sensitive to both emotion and temperature. When a female H'nemthe consummates her relationship with a male, she eviscerates him with her knife-shaped tongue, strangely considering it a <strong>proof</strong> of love. This odd ritual is most likely a result of the <strong>fact</strong> that there are 20 males to every female on their home planet.
context2: The Sunnis argue that it is a mistake to interpret an expression of friendship and support as the appointment of a successor. If Muhammad had wished to appoint Ali, surely he would have done so in Medina, in front of all the Muslim notables. The <strong>fact</strong> that there even was a dispute over the leadership after Muhammad's death is sufficient <strong>proof</strong> that no one had interpreted his words as a binding appointment.
