Instead, it is often written from the perspective of what we see. In other words, it makes generic categorizations. In this case, the bat is categorized as a bird because like birds, it flies and is similar in size to most birds. If we did not know that it was a mammal, it would be natural to call it a bird. To the Hebrew of ancient times, calling it a bird was perfectly logical.
Right, so what justification do you have for taking the knowledge of the day literally when it talks about 'kinds' and animals being created instead of what modern science has revealed?

The Bible teaches a literal 6 day creation and because a day and kinds are not the same thing, Kinds are Gods classification of animals he created and I do not follow Secular modernist evolutionists. I look at everything from the biblical perspective.
