Star nosed moles, and biblical kinds

That would require an evolutionary rate so fast that literally every single individual born would be its own species, incapable of breeding with anything else, and the entire biome would perish after the first generation.You're going from two individuals (or seven, depending on whether or not it was clean or unclean) of a single species to literally millions of species in certain instances...all in the space of a few decades, and without anybody noticing the huge variation between parent and child.------------------

Speel-yi responds to me...I think:

Elephants would not have to evolve, we have only 3 species and that would make 6 individuals.

But elephants are unclean. Thus, there would have been only two.And who said anything about elephants? Do you understand that there are literally millions of species of insect?

Also, I could prove that most species are in fact not species at all since the differences are so small.

No, you couldn't. That's the point of the biological species concept. I know, I know...when do creationists ever care about reality?By the way...is this an admission that a "kind" is a species? It'd be nice to see some tract on the flood actually indicate what a "kind" is.[oh, and lest MrHambre not get it...I do get the sarcasm involved.]------------------
