creationism, part 2

lest anyone think AIG is an exception that proves the rule, here's an excerpt from an icr.org article by Dr. Morris:

It was the "kinds"—seven of every "clean" kind and two of all other kinds—that went out to repopulate the whole earth, with all its different ecological niches. Within each kind was a created genetic system capable of considerable recombination, so different varieties could quickly develop within each kind, as the descendants migrated to different regions of the world with all their different environments. Some of these eventually became stably reproducing species or even genera—probably still capable of reuniting to produce hybrids but normally remaining distinct.

Thus, all the dogs—including domestic dogs in all their varieties, wolves, coyotes, foxes, etc.—presumably descended from the two members of the created "dog kind." The same may well have been true of the cats and other zoological families

it seems the height of hypocrisy to be constantly characterizing evolution as "just a theory" while accepting it to just the extent required to account for the abundance of species in the wake of a supposed global flood, and carping that "no one has ever seen it happen" while assuming that dogs turned into coyotes and horses into zebras. incidentally, if the flood covered the earth and destroyed all life, then it's necessary that new species arose after the flood, because Noah only had 7 days to load the ark, which made it impossible to load 2 of every species.
