Nevertheless, you're talking about groups of animals being the same kind but not the same species, so it doesn;t look like kinds are synonymous with species at all. Hell, the cats aren't just different species in a family they're different genera.*emphasis mine*
Just take the survey, lol.
Once again, you're not arguing with me, you're arguing with the dictionary; but what do I know, you're the best debater of the forums
No matter how much mental gymnastics you apply, 'species' and 'kind' are synonymous, no if and or buts.

So this has been done right and viable fertile offspring came from said union . Tigers and Lions can produce offspring but their not fertile so are the different kind/ species? So once again just hijacking real science and imposing his book of magic on it . species

Quote:Female Ligers are not Sterile, but rather they are highly fertile. A Female Liger can reproduce with both lion and tigers. There have been a lot of examples from female ligers, in which a Li-Liger is produced and also a Ti-Liger is produced. Therefore, female Ligers are not sterile at all. It is a very wrong notion to association sterility with Ligers.
And you missed my point entirely
Big surprise
And once again turning to common usage .
also love how he ignored the rest of the post .
Calling a Genus , Class, Order, and Family subcategories of species is dumb . And the rest of definitions is just you imposing none biology terms into the mix allowing you to stretch the term as broad as you like .Once again simply putting up dictionary definitions has failed you .Kind is not biological classification .
