Man, this argument is classic.

1)
Hey! Look at how all these dogs are different!
This proves evolution is true [when you start from an evolutionary assumption]. (again, this is “equivocation”)

2)
Hey! Look at how all these dogs are different!
This proves that the dog kind was created with the capacity for huge variety [when you start from a creationist assumption].

The difference is that person two recognizes his own presupposed assumptions and he recognizes person one’s as well.
Person one doesn’t recognize that he has any presuppositions and concludes that his opponent is just an idiot for not seeing it his way.

Man, this answer is even more classic. Hint: They're not all dogs (canids). Not even close. So it appears all those adaptations, which you have stated occur and explained (inasmuch as your dogma allows), have confused the biblical "kinds" classification.

It appears, through a juvenile experiment, that those adaptations, which you have stated occur, have happened to the point of speciation. I wonder how and why that happened?
