And then God says He created pretty much everything except humans after it’s own kind...An indicator of two things...One, that these things existed before the creation as we know it and two, evolution is entirely out of the question...
I’m not sure about your view that “after it’s own kind” implies that God was re-creating these creatures in the likeness of some that previously existed. I’ve never heard that position before, so I’ll have to do some research into the Hebrew when I get home and see what I can come up with.
