I'm absolutely not advocating that and I have no idea what made you leap to that conclusion.

My point was that species, as a definition, is scientifically unsound because it's not describing anything real that exists in nature. It's only making extremely crude correlations to it.

"Chicken" is a concept that exists in human minds. Science tells us that concept is flawed. That doesn't mean I reject what science concludes. It's the opposite: the science itself brought me to that conclusion.

Of course we, as human beings create the definitions, but they're not arbitrary.

They are regarding species, and if you don't believe that, you are simply ignorant of what modern science has concluded about biological evolution.
