I have the theory that God cursed Cain with agelessness, then Cain snuck on the ark as a stowaway. Then, when the flood was over with, he snuck back off the ark and is yet roaming the earth today (provided that someone or something hasn't yet killed him). See, despite being a significant figure (first murderer and all that),
the Bible doesn't give him a death, nor does God give him a time limit, like "thou shalt be a fugitive in the earth all thy days". There isn't anything like that. Plus, despite only mentioning Noah and his wife, and Noah's sons and their wives boarding the ark, it doesn't say that they were the only humans that entered the boat. Knowing the Bible's reputation for scanty detail, it wouldn't surprise me if the ark had a certain extra unknown passenger. Everybody, tell me what you think. You think it's great, you think it's a load of bullocks, doesn't matter; I just want to get some opinions on my theory.
