[Creationist]

Kind is a scientific term. A german shepard is a kind of dog. A robin is a kind of bird. It is an interchangable word with species. I do not use the word species because it is a new word created by evolutionist to distant themselves fromt the Biblical term kind.

Websters, Second College Edition, New World Dictionary of the American Language ----kind---- 1. [Archaic] (a) origin (b) nature (c) manner; way 2. a natural group or division (the rodent kind) sometimes used in compounds (human-kind) 3.essential character 4. sort; variety: class

This definition is of the word kind it can be use in place of the word species and still convey to a person what is meant in a conversation even with a scientist.

Definition no. 4 clearly states everything that would be said about a German Shepard, It is a sort of dog, it is a variety of dog, it is a class of dog. You are just lying to yourself when you deny that kind is a scientific term, look up very old scientific documents they used the word kind not species, because the word species was not created.

The word species is used to distance yourself from the Bible.

"Kind is a scientific term."

No, it really isn't.

"It is an interchangable word with species.:

No, it's is very, very different. For instance there are over 1,000 species of Birds. Saying an organism is a *Robin* is not the same thing as saying it's a bird. *Bird* is not a synonym for a particular species. It's the name of a class.

"I do not use the word species because it is a new word created by evolutionist to distant themselves fromt the Biblical term kind."

Species is a word that predates evolution. You are very confused.

" The word species is used to distance yourself from the Bible."

No, it's the tern that has been used for hundreds of years to designate a particular biological population.
