I think you ought to define "kind" for us, vash.
Once we've got that nailed down, you can offer proof of your position.
I rather like your definition ...
birds as things in the sky, and fish as things in the sea, and animals as things on the land
Care to stick with that?
How does your definition square with the other creo definitions mentioned in messages 4 and 5?
And as for ...
This wouldn't preclude that they share a common ancestor or that some type of living ape variety is the ancestor.
This is stunning. You concede a common ancestor for the great apes?
And finally ...
Because of other animals interbreeding I don't think this reconciles the case for common descent on a timeline larger than 6k years. Darwin saw how fast finches could be changed through breeding, I don't see how all the variations couldn't have been relatively recent ... *If* the world is 6k years old, which I believe, and money was alloted to research these variations within this time frame, I would suspect the findings would be sufficient to propose an answer. At this time I am unaware of any scientific research for finding the limits of the variations in a biblical time frame.
If you would like to discuss the age of the earth, I have already pointed you toward the relevant threads. It is off topic here.
If you would like to discuss the "speed" of evolution, that too has its own thread (Question on Evolutionary Rates).
