There are 35 kind of dog in the dog kind.

"There are 35 kind of dog in the dog kind."

Before you said the *kind* was *dog*. Now you are changing that to 35 *kinds*. Or are you saying that *kind* can describe EACH of the 35 AND be used to describe *dog* in general? Sorry, that type of sloppy logic doesn't cut it. The family canidae has 35 SPECIES. *Kind* is as relevant to modern biology as *humours* is to medicine. In other words, it has no scientific meaning.

Domestic dogs and most cats are not created by God but by man.. Domestic almost anythings are bred down from some source.. They were not here "in the beginning".. In that sense evolution evolved.. Could be that some natural "kinds" evolved from what they once were.. animals, birds, insects, or plants.. But taking it all the way back to our father the oooze.. is a bit much.. Evolution expanded to be an answer for where life came from is a Fairy Tale for Adults.. A convoluted myth speckled with believable but wholly unproven speculation.. as is the "big bang".. Preconceived notions with mathematical uncertainty.. trying to make sense of the infinity of the expanse.. The human mind has trouble with infinity.. and trys to reign it in.. Humans are arrogant creatures with both with engineering and metaphysics.. The void is also hard to grasp.. Infinity and the void.. can make humans stupid.. The answer being you don't know now and maybe never will know.. is like telling a spoiled child NO.. They just can't handle NO.. and throw a fit..
