Micro-evolving tits, milk, live birth & massive brains

There is only one fish kind. The fish kind before the flood was not sensitive to the salinity of the water. After the flood, the fish kind micro-evolved into many types like the salmon, shark, arowana, and dolphin.
​
The dolphin?!!?
​
Don't overplay the part, Taz. If you can micro-evolve a dolphin from a fish in 4,300 years, your descendants could be elephants by about the 23rd century.

Catastrophological science.

I am no catastrophological scientist

Oh, I don't know about that. I don't think you should underrate the catastrophologicalness of your science. You're doing very well.

Personally, I'm surprised I haven't seen a creationist at EvC argue that the dolphin and whale belong to the "fish kind" yet.
​
I have to admit that catastrophological science isn't my strong point, so I don't know where they're classified.
​
Maybe penguins are amphibians.
​
For the sake of the topic, I think Noah had fresh water aquariums on the ark. Or rather, he just kept the freshwater fish kind(s) in the drinking water he would've needed for the land animals.

Actually, the term "dolphin" is used to describe either a cetacean ("whale-thingy") or a fish which is also known as the mahi-mahi or dorado.
​
Well, live and learn. So, the catastrophological viewpoint on the mahi-mahi would be that it is a kind of living fossil. It's obviously a micro-evolutionary intermediate between the original fish pair on the Ark and the cetaceans.
​
Thanks to the three people on the thread who've spotted this possibility, as it could be a landmark in catastropho-paleontology, and a clue towards the understanding of post-flood marine hyper-microevolution.

Isn't it kind of pointless to discuss that when so many factors all point to the outcome that the flood never happened?
​
Errr... yes, obviously, my child.. Don't ask me about it. I'm not a catastrophologist.
