[QUOTE="frenchstudent, post: 52239167, member: 245236"] Hi. I was reacting to this post from stormdancer0 in the pentacostal fellowship forum: [sorry, I am not allowed to post links yet. You'll have to dig for yourself] [I]<staff edit> [/I]I'm moving my reaction here. My reaction it the following one : There are currently 41 species of felids known. These are 41 sets of felids that cannot interbreed and produce offspring that can breed. This is the definition of a species. Mules, for example, are barren hybrid of horses and donkeys. If mules could breed, that would make horses, donkeys and mules part of the same species (the same way poodles and german shepherds are still part of the "dog" species). As it is, horses and donkeys are different species, and mules are a hybrid. So, if your theory is correct (and I did not say in my original post it was not, nor will I say it here, although I will say that I believe it to be wrong), that means that of the 2 individuals in the ark, the two felids, these 41 species were bred. Now if you believe that the flood was 4000 years ago, that would mean there was a new species of felids every 100 years. That would be faster than any biologist expected. and it would be proof that speciation (what you would call "evolution", I suppose) does happen. Now in my opinion, this is not challenging your faith. I am merely following up on your idea, and following it wherever it may lead. [/QUOTE]
