it's obvious...God, through divine inspiration, gives this metaphorical story to someone in every generation, so they may use it to show others how faith works. In 3417, it will be 'A member of the Intergalatic Star Fleet, trapped on Arcturus IV, hiding from the Romulans, when a 12 legged "SprfanQ" spider hides him with a web spun of Titanium Polymer and provides telepathic contact with the fleet besides'!!

Ah, the wonder of it all!
