I've seen enough strangeness in my lifetime that a spider of that size only makes sense. The spiders alive today don't exist in the same manner they did hundreds of years ago. Our friend is no different, and I'd say a step forward in our changing world.

[There has never been another person more delighted by the thought of a giant spider, except maybe Hagrid himself.]

There's "quite old" and then there's "beginning of time" after all. But to answer your question, no. I'm not involved in any ministry.
