[ WP ] Humanity has tried to deny it for centuries , searched every corner of every planet , used math to call it impossible , but you are the scientist tasked with informing the Earth that we are the only sentient life-forms in the universe . A plant behind you starts laughing hysterically .

Hell. Hell had come to Earth. I'm not entirely sure this is what those Bible-thumpers or whatever had in mind, but this was assuredly Hell. The final judgement of men had been given to me to make. 
 
 We'd been looking for centuries for proof. Behind every tree, under every stone, in the stars and on the sea floor, but to no luck. We were alone in the cosmos regarding sentience, despite the mathematics and the logic put up like barricades to stop this conclusion. The loneliness of an entire universe fell upon my shoulders, washing over my arms, and into my keyboard over my fingers. With each and every pressing of a key, the use of another character, the world would come to know our shame. 
 
 At first, I thought I began to hear hushed giggles. It was a laugh from behind me. I turned my chair to question the interloper, only to bear witness to shelves full of plants moving in their own wind in this static office, bellowing with laughter. The entire room was awash in it. The Universe's Final Judgement had been issued to me.
