McGrath,

I know you guys created the English language, but I get my definitions from the New World Dictionary of the AMERICAN Language. Here are a couple:

rational - 1. of, based on, or derived from reasoning
2. able to reason; reasoning; in possession of one's reason
3. showing reason; not foolish or silly; sensible

fanatic - 1. unreasonably enthusiastic (hmmmm, interesting); overly zealous; also fanatical-n. a person whose extreme zeal, piety, etc. goes beyond what is reasonable; zealot

Duhh, yup, them there terrorists are purty reasonable fellers, ain't they. They're a bunch of fucking lunatics, that's what they are, and so was Hitler, for that matter. Better yet, they're nothing more than animals, and as far as I know, animals do not possess reason. "Rational fanatic" fits together about as well as "dead survivors."
Now that I've got that off my chest, I'd better stop before I get personal. Have a nice day.
