DANGER - Facebook Messenger

Imagine your email software has this feature: As you are reading an email you are corresponding with person A, there is a Add button. By clicking it and selecting another person B, all the emails you have with person A in the past are immediately forwarded to person B, without warning. The email forwarding is executed virtually. Instead of physically forwarding each mail one by one to person B's mail server, basically your mail software gives access to Person B, at his own leisure, to browse EVERY of your email with person A.

Which of and how did Shem, Ham or Japeth become your great, great... grandfather? How did the two kangaroos on the ark land in Australia? The answers are meant and waiting to be discovered.  "It is the glory of God to conceal things, but the glory of kings is to search things out." - Proverbs 25:2 ESV
