"and lateral gene transference has never been observed to happen naturally between dissimilar KINDS"

So you really are lumping all bacteria together as a single kind.

Do you realize that bacteria are more diverse then all the animals of the world combined and include thousands of species, genera, families, orders, classes and phylums?

It's a little like saying a humans and a jellyfish are the same KIND.

If that is what you mean by KIND, then ALL animals are one KIND and ALL plants are one KIND because you are defining KIND as what science would a Kingdom.

[[So you really are lumping all bacteria together as a single kind.]]

If you will look at hte examples of lateral gene transference in the bacterial realm, you will indeed see that they are in the same KIND

[[Do you realize that bacteria are more diverse then all the animals of the world combined and include thousands of species, genera, families, orders, classes and phylums?]]

Can I feign ignorance here and argue round and round too? it looks like fun. Since the Phylogenic classification system has problems classifying the many thousands of species of bacteria, shall I tell you that you are talking babble and put hte demand to you to precisely define which bacteria belong to which groups, genera, families, orders, classes and phylums if you’re going to make your argument as you’ve done to me when I know full well the intent of your arguments? Act dumb, and pretend that particular problems aren’t problems because science is having trouble precisely classifying all the bacteria?

[[It’s a little like saying a humans and a jellyfish are the same KIND.

If that is what you mean by KIND, then ALL animals are one KIND and ALL plants are one KIND because you are defining KIND as what science would a Kingdom]]

Nice attempt at prolonging a symantics argument to avoid obvious problems- read that link I posted and you will see the folly of your statem,ent
