Tree of many nations:
A star/meteorite fell to the earth
colided with tree of many nations
crashed into the tree a massive explosion
and billions of stardust seeds scattered
all over the Earth
That is why there are so many tree species

This was very fascinating and made me think about the significance and where did the family tree idea come from. All I could find was the following info on Wikipedia:
A family tree is basically a chart that is designed to represent the various family relationships in a structure that resembles a normal tree. It is usually used to track a person's family history. However it is sometime used in the fields of social work, genealogy and medicine. In this form it is known as genograms.
The image of the tree was added to the genogram due to the inspiration provided by the medieval art of the Tree of Jesse. It was used to illustrate Christ's Genealogy as a prophecy done by Isaiah.
The tree was then used outside the Bible for the first time, to represent the full family relationships of the classical Gods as featured in Genealogia deorum gentilium. It was made in the year 1360.
Personal comment: I wonder if I took my family tree, and with the lineage that I could find, if it was possible to put all the different religions practiced by the family members, if I might not find many different faiths? Talk about religious tolerance in the family! Mab
