Will it? So? I want to see if it's true in action or simply true as a convention of how people use it. Take a stab man, respond to the kinds survey. Show us that kind is synonymous with species by your answers.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

So, chimps, humans, raccoons, horses, pigs, and rabbits have fur, live birth, feed their young with milk. Does this make them a "kind"?

Meh. Huggies has already been proven wrong on his kind unto kind bullshit. Making him embarrass himself further seems kinda pointless.

So fish, bird, reptiles , mammals, are all a kind because they all have a spines and were also related to insects,crustaceans, by the fact we all have eukaryotic cells. You see why biologists don't use your classification system.

No dummy, the definition clearly stated a class of INDIVIDUALS having some common characteristics or qualities; DISTINCT sort or kind.
http://www.dictionary.com/browse/distinct
Quote:distinct
1. distinguished as not being the same; not identical; separate
The creatures you mentioned are clearly distinct from one another.

Yes they all have mammary glands, fur, and give live birth to their young!
Identical? Are you identical to your dad, mom, sister?

Are you saying chimps, humans, raccoons, horses, pigs, and rabbits aren't distinct from one another?

Are you saying chimps, humans, raccoons, horses, pigs, and rabbits aren't distinct from one another? They are all cousins. Closely related. All mammals sharing some very primary characteristics. If, in the 21st century you do not know this, you are an ignorant fool!

It's a simple yes or no question... are they distinct from one another or aren't they?
