==Baraminological Terms==

* '''Holobaramin''': A Holobaramin is a grouping that contains all organisms related by descent, not excluding any. For example, Humans are a holobaramin, meaning all races are descended from a singular creation event (i.e. the creation of Adam and Eve). But a group containing only [[Caucasian | Caucasians]] and [[Negro | Negros]] is not a holobaramin since it excludes [[Mongoloid | Mongoloids]] and other races. (This is in contrast to the racist conclusions of evolutionary theory, which holds that the same process that separated man from beast also separated the human races from one another.) Another example would be [[dog]]s, which form a holobaramin since [[wolf | wolves]], [[coyote | coyotes]], domesticated dogs and other [[canid | canids]] are all descended from two individuals taken aboard the [[Noah's Ark | Ark]], and there are no other creatures that are genetically continuous with them. This term is synonymous with the use of "baramin" above and is the primary term in baraminology.  

* '''Holobaramin''': A Holobaramin is a grouping that contains all organisms related by descent, not excluding any. For example, Humans are a holobaramin, meaning all races are descended from a singular creation event (i.e. the creation of Adam and Eve) and will always be human. (This is in contrast to the racist conclusions of evolutionary theory, which holds that the same process that separated man from beast also separated the human races from one another.) But a group containing only [[Caucasian | Caucasians]] and [[Negro | Negroes]] is not a holobaramin since it excludes [[Mongoloid | Mongoloids]] and other races.

This term is synonymous with the use of "baramin" above and is the primary term in baraminology.  

* '''Monobaramin''': A monobaramin is an ''ad hoc'' group of organisms who share common descent. Caucasians and Negros are a monobaramin, as are any group of specific members of a holobaramin such as wolves, poodles, and terriers or the humans Tom, Dick, and Harry. Holobaramins contain monobaramins; for instance, wolves are a monobaramin of the Dog holobaramin.

* '''Apobaramin''': An apobaramin is a group of holobaramins. Humans and Dogs are an apobaramin since both members are holobaramins. A group containing Negros and wolves is not an apobaramin since both members are monobaramins.

* '''Polybaramin''': A polybaramin is an ''ad hoc'' group of organisms where at least one of the members must not be a holobaramin and must be unrelated to any or all of the others. For example: Humans, wolves and a [[duck]] are a polybaraminic group. This term is useful for describing such hodgepodge mixtures of creatures.
