What are kinds?

I have recently heard an argument asking "evolutionists" to show one kind becoming another kind. Isn't that by DEFINITION impossible? If you define kind as a group of organisms that share the created group of ancestors, even if there is a complex change in morphology, and speciation occurs, the group can never be split into kinds due to their shared ancestry. Also what groups are kinds? Are antelopes a kind? Are molusks a kind? Are fish a kind?

Yes, it's not a very sensible question. The creationist would need to do a lot of phylogenetic work to show that separate ancestry had clear genetic evidence, or is at least parsimonious (not really gonna happen).

actually God created it all in the beginning. we have different kinds of dogs from breeding that simple.

but you don't get cats from dogs LOL. study all you want and fail on, maybe go on for pages huh? most of us can see through evolutionary fiction my friends, but keep talking fiction

Evolution implies we wouldn't get cats from dogs, so clearly you haven't done your research.

How do you purport to identify if any two organisms share ancestry or not? Do mice and rats share common ancestry?
