A kind infers barriers.
I don't think the word "kind", as used in the Bible, implies barriers at all.
Poodles reproduce after their kind and German Shepherds reproduce after their kind and Great Danes reproduce after their kind - but there's no barrier to interbreeding of those "kinds".
The Bible authors knew about livestock. They wrote about animals reproducing after their kind knowing full well that some breeds are good for milk and some breeds are good for meat and some breeds are good for wool - but there are no barriers to cross-breeding between the kinds.
The idea of barriers between "kinds" is neither scientific nor Biblical.

The first recorded scientific equation:

You replied to my post, but I don't see where you answered my point at all.
The Biblical "equation" talks about greyhounds to greyhounds and schnausers to schnausers but it doesn't say that greyhounds and schnausers can't crossbreed. The Biblical use of the word "kind" does not imply any kind of barrier.

I just wanted to point out that your nonsense is no more Bible-based than it is science-based.
(And after 400+ posts, can you please learn how to use the buttons?)
