We observe animals reproducing after their kind with some variation. They have the ability to adapt to their environment, within limits. One's that adapt well, live. Other's that don't, may die off.

This is a new section being rolled out to attract people interested in exploring the origins of the universe and the earth from a biblical perspective. Debate is encouraged and opposing viewpoints are welcome to post but certain rules must be followed. 1. No abusive tagging - if abusive tags are found - they will be deleted and disabled by the Admin team 2. No calling the biblical accounts a fable - fairy tale ect. This is a Christian site, so members that participate here must be respectful in their disagreement.
Dinosaurs are fake and leads to atheism!

Thank you. Agreed. Now explain how the limits function over time.

Consider dog breeds and the variation from Chihuahua to Great Dane from Terrier to Saint Bernard. Has a dog breed ever been developed into something other than dog?
Interesting. What do you make of the fact that donkeys and horses can reproduce despite different numbers of chromosomes?
What about the fact that Chimpanzees and bonobos have interbred several times since their populations split a few million years ago, and the bonobo genome also carries DNA that seems to have come from a third, unidentified species.

So, you agree that there are limits. Good. Life is not a free for all.

Why is this any sort of a problem?
There is no such thing as "a few million years". You seemed to want to talk science, but then you go off to philosophical beliefs instead.
Well, sir, it is a problem for the resulting mules who cannot produce viable embryos.
It is also indicative of the edge of a speciation, perhaps.
You seem to try to flip the script here. I will give you a list of evidence that shows life and earth is very old-- if that could help you.

IOW, you will give us some Darwinistspeak that you erroneously choose to call "evidence," which fails to show that the earth is billions of years old.

Degradation of the existing genome is not progress.
You can try, but it won't be a scientific argument.

Are you the mule whisperer?
Yes, I am. So, I think you can readily understand it when I softly say (if you'll pardon the coarseness): Don't be an ass in this thread.

Oh, OK. So far, I've never heard any rationally-thinking person claim that a mule's (or any other brute beast's) failure to produce offspring is a problem for the mule.
Take away point: the horse and the donkey have a common ancestor from the not so distant past. What is your alternate explanation for their relationship?
Researchers have documented speciation events in plants, insects and worms. They subjected organisms to various types of selection—for anatomical differences, mating behaviors, habitat preferences and other traits—and found that they had created populations of organisms that did not breed with outsiders.
You have accepted a different notion of science that is self-serving to your cause. I do recommend you recalibrate or you will find yourself mired in logical quandaries.

Did a non-human ever give birth to a human?
If you look at the history of this topic as it has been discussed on this forum, I'm afraid that you will find you are beating a dead horse here.
I don't know. Do you have any children?

All of God's created kinds have a common ancestor.
The idea of a single common ancestor for all life is a myth.
The created kinds branching out is not a problem for the Creation Model.
False accusation, also known as lying.
Hilarious. I have no problem with real science, I reject your pseudo-science.
This question is semantically loaded so the only correct answer can be yes and no. It depends. You have to define human vs non-human then I will give you a crisp answer to your liking, but be forewarned your tone is of the niggling variety. Niggling leads others to not only dislike what you say, but to dislike and avoid you. I am susceptible to average human sensibilities.
I am beginning to see what you mean.
