So answer question, how long does it take for an animal to produce a new breed?
Deflection noted.
You really think there's a single answer to that for all animals?!? You've already been worked on speciation once. You really want to go there again? So now he's trying to hijack another scientific concept to push his idea of kinds . Just wow

So since you refuse to answer the question, we'll just say you have no clue how long it takes for an animal to produce a new breed, and therefore have no basis to suggest it must take a really really long time...

That was one hellishly cramped ark if kind is equal to species. That's equal to 3 animals per cubic foot, at minimum. I take it you don't believe in evolution? Animal life didn't start out with 2 million species...
So you believe in evolution then, that one "kind" can evolve into a different kind, such that homo sapiens sapiens, Adam and Eve, are evolved from some other kind?

No, I believe everything evolves after it's own kind.

You're equivocating. The theory of biological evolution is the theory that one kind, aka species, can evolve into a different kind/species. Do you believe in evolution thus defined?

That's absolute derp . There are no kinds . And life does not evolve within them.

Should've just taken the kinds survey, Hugs. In any case, if you posit that things evolve "after their own kind" then kind is not synonymous with species after all. For example, earlier, you mentioned cats. Let;s call that "cat-kind". All cats evolved after their own "cat-kind".
Well, you're talking felidae,..then. "Cat-kind" is a family, not a species. Now, I bet we'd have seen that, simply, when you answered "cat-kind" to tigers and housecats..right? Or "dog kind" to wolves and beagles. Or "ape-kind" to man and orangutans.
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!

No, I've made it clear that I don't believe we've evolved from some primordial soup.

Nor do I Huggy.
That's for simpletons trying to understand the actual science.

Yup like Huggy on pretty much any subject
Oh and the sky is purple
I wonder if he will quote that in the hall of shame . And make huge deal out of it for cheap gotcha points. Only to then have pointed out that he's wrong . And embarrass himself while trying to embarrass you . Because he's so desperate to win any kind of victory .
