Question:
Anyway , today I went to investigate the inside of the old cupboard and I found that the wall it has been standing up against all these years contains a kind of secret compartment . The weak wood of the cupboard back that gave way must have been a kind of entrance to this compartment . There was n't much in the compartment except some old pennies , part of an old candle , and two small leather - bound writing pads ( also very old but in good condition ) . When I opened the books I found that they comprised part of a carefully kept diary - indeed , my father 's own journal !

Why did they investigate the cupboard ?
Answer:
They were curious as to what is behind it .

Why are the two individuals hard to tell apart ?
Answer:

Question:
There were multiple instances where I thought there was a big possibility of seriously offending people , but he carries it off really well . The range of topics he chose to cover are also very impressive . Though I was not very excited about his explanations about philosophy , I thoroughly enjoyed his explanation of why we believe in God and if there is a reason why we do so . He does not go anywhere near explaining if God exists or not , but takes serious liberties to poke fun at believers and atheists alike .

What 's a possible reason the guy takes serious liberties to poke fun at believers and atheists alike ?
Answer:
Because he is n't afraid of offending people .
