I found these don't know if it will help or not.

Everything I have read says that snails are basically slugs with a shell and the only difference is were they live such as habitat, etc.

All you have to do is show him terrestial snails that live on land only, not in the water. Do some general searches to get their scientific names, then just look up profiles for those which will give their habitat. If they were the same thing in a different form, they wouldn't have separate genus, species, family, and order names.
hes not right
a snail and a slug are a different animal
they may be similar.. but there are snails that live on land only so his theory makes no sense
they are indeed a very similar animal-- but not the same

I don't understand his point of view.
It's like saying a seal is just a dog with flippers instead of legs, so it's the same animal...

I've always thought of slugs as snails without shells rather than the other way around. I guess you can look at it either way - they're different in that one has a shell and the other doesn't, they're the same because they're both gastropods that may share the same orders and families, and possibly genera.
