Similarly, the Theory of Gravity describes the fact of gravitational attraction.
Good, then you can define the classification "kind" for us.
Yep; that's evolution.
How about a reptile evolving into a bird?
How convenient for you. The creator exists because the creation proves the creator exists. Now demonstrate that this creator is "God".
Reptiles evolved into birds, really? Based on what? If so why did some evolve and some didn't? Wouldn't of all reptiles of ceased to exist and there be just more birds? Who decides they stay a lizard and another will be a bird?
The Word of God attests that in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Please explain to me how gasses came from nothingness.

I see you're still asking the same questions, and ignoring the linked answers.
Bird evolution is well-documented, commonly accepted, and supported by the fossil record:
"In the 1970s, paleontologists noticed that Archaeopteryx shared unique features with small carnivorous dinosaurs called theropods. All the dinosaur groups on this evogram, except the ornithischian dinosaurs, are theropods. Based on their shared features, scientists reasoned that perhaps the theropods were the ancestors of birds. When paleontologists built evolutionary trees to study the question, they were even more convinced. The birds are simply a twig on the dinosaurs' branch of the tree of life."

"In theropods even more closely related to birds, like the oviraptorosaurs, we find several new types of feathers. One is branched and downy, as pictured below. Others have evolved a central stalk, with unstructured branches coming off it and its base. Still others (like the dromaeosaurids and Archaeopteryx) have a vane-like structure in which the barbs are well-organized and locked together by barbules. This is identical to the feather structure of living birds."
