AI seems to have covered it quite well for you. But you're still forcing an interpretation of scripture.
Small changes add up over time, leading to larger changes. This is no different than any other worldly process that God frequently works through.
Satan was an angel! is that change "within the boundaries of the kind"?
your reasoning is ultimately based on culture and politics, which dictates that one can believe in either science or politics. your AI has not provided any logical reason to assume that evolution cannot lead to major changes in a species.
based on observing compounding changes, we know that it can.
zero evidence of species changes? that's not true at all. small changes add up over time, leading to different classifications.
we do have a gap in the fossil record that means evolution can't account for humanity by itself. that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
it's the same false dichotomy of asking whether God saved Trump from the assassination, or whether he just happened to turn his head at the right time. To those that know what's going on, the answer is clearly both. There is no conflict between the two concepts.
The fossil record does not provide direct evidence of one species transforming into a completely different species in a single, observable step. However, it does offer a substantial body of evidence for the gradual process of speciation over long periods of time through what is called "transitional fossils." These fossils display traits that are intermediate between ancestral and descendant species, which evolutionary biologists interpret as evidence of gradual change over time. Examples include:
Tiktaalik – This fossil represents a transitional form between fish and early land-dwelling tetrapods, showing features of both aquatic and terrestrial organisms.
Archaeopteryx – This species shows both reptilian and avian characteristics, being considered a transitional fossil between non-avian dinosaurs and birds.
Australopithecus – A hominin species that is considered a transitional form in the evolution of modern humans, showing a blend of ape-like and human-like traits.
However, from a Judeo-Christian worldview, the interpretation of these fossils is seen differently. According to the Biblical account of creation in Genesis, God created distinct "kinds" of creatures. This view holds that while variations within a kind (what might be considered microevolution) are observable and scientifically valid, the idea that one kind can evolve into a completely different kind (macroevolution) lacks direct observational evidence. In this view, transitional fossils are often interpreted not as proof of one species turning into another but as variation within created kinds or as distinct species altogether.
The fossil record, while informative, remains incomplete, and interpretations are influenced by both worldview and scientific framework.
again, your argument is based on the idea that God does not use natural processes. Was it God, or evolution? Was it God, or was it the immigration chart that made Trump turn his head?
False dichotomy. God uses natural processes. Not a strawman.
and I'm not saying that God is restricted to using natural processes. But you're saying evolution doesn't exist because God did it. But that's not how God works. Natural processes exist, and God utilizes them for His will.

stop feeding the psyop.
We have evidence of small changes. We have a zero evidence of species changes.
Scripture is backing up scientific evidence and scientific evidence is backing up scripture.
Occam's razor.
