What was the ORIGINAL PURPOSE of a spider's web?
Same as it is now.

Hello All,
I would say a benevolent reason. To provide water for other insects when dew formed in the morning on it. Of course, I don't think the web was sticky back then, before the Fall. Stop laughing! I'm serious.

The web's purpouse is the same as the lion's fangs, of course. To catch straw!
The spider meticulously spun his web in ancient times to catch the wily and elusive straw. Unbeknownst to the straw, the spider's web waited to catch the falling straw only to entrap it and restrain it for the whims of the spider.
Having caught the straw with it's web, the spider is alerted to it's prey through the vibrations of the straw's capture. The spider then makes it's way across the web to then inject the straw with it's venom. Thus immobilized, the straw awaits being eaten alive by the spider.
This is the life cycle of spiders and straw. A cycle of life that has been nature's way since time immemorial, or at least until that frickin' Noah came along.

Oh, come on, TR, now you're really pushing it. Spiders never ate straw! It's just too damn big for your average spider. Everyone knows that webs were originally intended to catch pollen grains. The only flaw in this scenario was that after the spiders had ingested all of the pollen grains, no plants were being fertilized, and therefore, many parts of the Earth became deserts. When much of the plant life died off, it affected the herbivorous dinosaurs, and as their numbers lessened so did the carniv.... Oh, wait, those carnivorous dinosaurs didn't exist. Okay, then, due to a lack of plant life caused by those damned pollen-sucking spiders, all dinosaurs died out.

Well actually spiders are pan dimensional life forms. The web is a secret radio telescope for sending and receiving broadcasts to the mother ship. If you stick your ear up close you can hear them humming the words "Crush Kill Destroy". Spiders of course guard their transmitters jealously and will endeavour to eat anything that interferes with their signals and plans for would domination. (The fact that spiders have eight legs, lots of eyes and are hairy is indisputable proof they are pure evil and are not from this world)
