"It" has been said before, but here is a nice presentation of "it" again:
The main contradiction for Creationists in defining "kind" is to define this term simultaneously (a) broad enough that the observed instances of speciation can't be considered the creation of a new "kind" and (b) narrow enough that humans and the other apes are separate 'kinds'.
And more.
At least one person tagged it with a "5". I added my "5". Having posted 11 messages, Fiver currently has a "5" member rating.
