I only wanted to know how much you can add to The Documentation before you muddle and violate it so much that it can no longer be considered "The Documentation." 10%? 20%? How much?Ad lib questions deserve ad lib answers.
Right -- that's what you want, isn't it?
Then what? Jonah in the whale's belly? Daniel in the lions' den? the virgin birth? the resurrection?
Where does it stop?
Well, actually nothing. According to AV1611VET's own proclaimed standards (biblical literalism) he is not allowed to add or delete anything.I only wanted to know how much you can add to The Documentation before you muddle and violate it so much that it can no longer be considered "The Documentation." 10%? 20%?

Here are the specific [land] kinds -- alive in Genesis
...
(Note: I may add to this list as the discussion progresses.)/QUOTE]
Now, what will it be? Are you specific, or is your list incomplete. For a thread you start youself, he even doesn't know if his own list is complete.
AV1611VEt, think this through and come back when you have a full, specific and accurate list of kinds.
Things go worse on page 2.
Again, any refutation can be shielded away with "well, by example was oversimplified".Picture this as an oversimplified example:
...
The unicorns disembark -- go out -- get pregnant and give birth to another unicorn, a horse, a cow, a lion and a tiger.
You have only six kinds - except the doves and ravens - and you cannot give us one example that is specific. And you hope to concince us that you have something to offer.
So untill you now you have offered nothing. Your Documentation is very poor, indeed.
What about bacteria?What about bacteria?
Did you see my 'miscellaneous' category?Did unicorns give birth to bacteria?
For the record, yes It does.In response to your post:
-The Bible never mentions a whale.
You take this attitude, driewerf, and you won't understand how kinds work, or how the Ark's population is actually overstated.So untill you now you have offered nothing. Your Documentation is very poor, indeed.

I hereby officially withdraw that 'never ending quest'.But according to AV1611VET's own self-evident "standards," he's allowed (by himself, of course) to do whatever it takes to the Bible so that he may use it to glorify himself in his never ending quest to eat Athesits for breakfast.

People like you, who try [and do] to find glitches in peoples' explanations, will go through life asking the same questions over and over again, and never understand a thing.
2 Timothy 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
Please don't feel sorry for me; I feel sorry for you guys, who have to carry the burden on your backs of having to understand every nuance of something before you'll believe it.
You're trying to understand the Bible by walking by sight, and It doesn't work that way.
I don't try to understand the bible, I try to understand what you wrote. And although I don't expect much humility or modesty from you, I think you're at least humble enough not to equate your writings with your lord's words.You take this attitude, driewerf, and you won't understand how kinds work, or how the Ark's population is actually overstated.

And you are left with the burden of having no mechanism to determine if your interpretation of scripture needs revising.Please don't feel sorry for me; I feel sorry for you guys, who have to carry the burden on your backs of having to understand every nuance of something before you'll believe it.
Thank you -- I do try to keep the two apart.And although I don't expect much humility or modesty from you, I think you're at least humble enough not to equate your writings with your lord's words.
Then, in my opinion, you're a gift from God here -- a scientist.What if I like questioning things...
Very well.Thank you -- I do try to keep the two apart.
I write 'in my opinion' so much, you'd think I have it hot-keyed on my keyboard.
The unicorns disembark -- go out -- get pregnant and give birth to another unicorn, a horse, a cow, a lion and a tiger.
Hmm, actually yes, I still need an explanation as to how tree sloths got from the Ark to where they're found today, etc.A kind is an animal with DNA specially encoded for punctuated equilibrium; and because of them, you don't need the Ark crammed full of every living creature in existence at the time, and you don't need long explanations as to how tree sloths got from the Ark to where they're found today, etc.
Your 'imaginary' aside -- those I mentioned in the OP -- in my opinion.-how many kinds were there on that imaginary ark.
Let's go with the six I listed.The six you listed? Eight (doves and ravens included)? Or more?
I don't know.-Which species were the offspring of the unicorn?
No -- you guys are.You are depicting your god really as a psychopath.
Unicorns get off the Ark, gallop (or fly) to the southern regions of Pangaea, get pregnant, have tree sloths; gallop or fly to another part, get pregnant, have aardvarks.Hmm, actually yes, I still need an explanation as to how tree sloths got from the Ark to where they're found today, etc.
Because to say that a unicorn gave birth to them still doesn't explain how sloths arrived in South Amercia.
Or how the aardvark landed in South Africa.
