No....they are different 'kinds' within the same main specie.
Animals are animals, but there are many different kinds.
Just because 2 kinds can't breed doesn't make them different main species.
One main specie can never morph into another main specie !....absolutely impossible !

Oh, this guy is a classic. Practically every word he types is worthy of this site.
A note: a specie (which this moron refers to four times) is an archaic word for coin (if I remember correctly). As such, this post is just one long non-sequiter(sp?).
"No....they are different 'kinds' within the same main specie."
I stand corrected (see, I told you the correction storm would begin). It has just occured to me, however, that this fundie is right in one sense. One coin of a precious metal will never morph into one of a different precious metal. The point remains, regardless, that this guy is an idiot (one who has no conception of standard grammar, spelling, punctuation, or anything else important to civilized writing).
Most Informed Creationist Award?
Oh good god. Theme_investor has a classification system on par with that of a three year old. His extent of identification seems to be 'animal', 'plant', 'neither'.
If you drop the preconceived notion that a "main specie" has anything to do with a Linnean "species", what this guy actually appears to be saying is that evolutionary transitions are possible up to the kingdom level; his only example of a main specie is "animal", and the Animalia are traditionally considered a kingdom.
Hadanelith, you knew more about what a specie was than I did (before I googled it out of curiousity after reading your post).
I always thougt that "kind" was used to signify the larger group consisting of related species instead of the other way around, as this guy does. This because it would be a usefull tool to save "ark-space", since Genesis says about the pairs Noah brought on his ark "eacht to their kind".
Fundies prefer the word "kind" over species because unlike the latter, "kind" is an ambigous term with multiple definitions. On the other hand, "species" has only one definition: a population who can interbreed and produce healthy fertile offspring.

For my sanity...main specie means kingdom, right? RIGHT?!

No-one's claiming that...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
