You don't really expect an answer do you? I aske what her for a definition of transitional species days ago and I'm still waiting. (But she continues to demand that I and others do her research for her....LOL

Speaking of answers and dissing someone for not giving them, there are several you have not answered either.

Mine, like in posts 52, 53, 69, 91, 93, 95,104, 105,108, 114, 132, to name a few.

As far as transitionals, IIRC, you brought the subject up and then demanded that I provide the definition. When you bring it up, it's up to you to define it.

That said, I'm well aware of the definition games that evos play. They demand definitions from others that they can't even provide themselves. Ask 30 evos for a definition of species and you'll get 30 different answers running from *they can't interbreed* to *every creature on the planet is a different species.*

Same sort of nonsense with transitionals. Evos have claimed that every fossil found is technically a transitional.

I know better than to get sucked into the definition game. No matter what I propose, you'll find something wrong with it. Since evos demand the right for scientists to define scientific terms, it's up to them to decide what a species is. When they figure it out, get back to me.

I gave you the clue but you remain clueless. Start with Phylogenetic Taxonomy and Morphological Data Matrices. I don't care how "evos" define transitional species, I just want to know how you do so that we can share a common starting point.

Ok, since you don’t have a definition of species (even though you’ve got some very fixed views on what can and can’t happen to species), how about you give us a definition of ‘kind’.
