In hopes of not taking an already long thread down an even longer side path I'm moving this quote from JJ over here.
No experiments have been shown to change one created kind into another created kind.
I'd like to hear how JJ defines "created kind", and would like some modern examples.
Is a seal a kind of dog, a kind of fish, a kind of dolphin, or just a kind of seal?
Is a penguin a kind of bird?
Is a platypus a kind of kangaroo or a kind of beaver or a kind of duck?
Is a crab a kind of spider?
Is a spider a kind of ant?
I think it would be helpful to have a concrete definition of "Kind" so we can start sorting out the various "created kinds" to better understand what could or could not have evolved.
