How do we tell one "kind" from another?
Assuming that you are talking about the animal kingdom, the answer "to me" would be a very simple one. A "kind" of animal would not jump the species boundry. For instance; There are thousands of different types of dogs, but none of them jump the species boundry (even though they have had an outside intelligent force guiding their "psuedo evolution" for thousands of years) You see a dog is still a dog no matter how you slice it. So there you have it.

I don't like to get bogged down in the minutia of "compartmentalized" debates. The guy asked for a definition and I gave him one. You gave another.Some academe somewhere will probably disagree with us both......and so on. I try and look at this whole debate from a logical approach. I adhere firmly to the KISS theory. I am not going to try and dazzle anyone with a theory or quote that I read out of book somewhere. I will from time to time use research and findings to illustrate a point. I still can't get (logically) past the BIG hurdles like The big dud, punctuated equilibrium, the cambrian explosion.....just to name a few. When the big ones don't have a satisfactory answer it seems like we are putting the chicken before the egg.
