Subject: What is progeny? |
Bible Note: One other thing you might want to consider Mark is that God created every living thing to only be able to mate with it's own species. The words "after his kind" and "after their kind" which occur frequently in Gen. 1 is from the Hebrew word "miyn" which means "kind, sometimes a species (usually of animals) Groups of living organisms belong in the same created 'kind' if they have descended from the same ancestral gene pool. This does not preclude new species because this represents a partitioning of the original gene pool. Information is lost or conserved not gained. A new species could arise when a population is isolated and inbreeding occurs. By this definition a new species is not a new 'kind' but a further partitioning of an existing 'kind'". It no more possible for an angel or demon to breed with a human than it is for a dog to breed with a cat. |
