Bobster Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 God created the chicken, which then laid a lot of eggs which hatched into more chickens. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got3n Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 no matter how you look at it weather its evolution or god creating animals, the chicken would have to come first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waurbind Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 first came a chicken-like creature and through mutation it became the common chicken, which would lay common chicken eggs, the females would be like the original chicken but the males would be based off a cross of the first female and a male chicken like thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.A.M Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 A chicken and an egg are lying in bed. The chicken is smoking a cigarette with a satisfied smile on its face. The egg is frowning and looking very frustrated. The egg mutters, to no one in particular, "Well, I guess we answered THAT question!" :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parhamreza Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 If you are a creationist, then the chicken came first since God just created it If you are an evolutionist, then the egg came first, since genetic mutations that gradually lead to new species happen at the moment of inception Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makeshift Hammer Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 All in all, you're starting at the wrong point in evolution. something came before the egg, so it's like asking, what came first, the mother or her child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parhamreza Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 But evolution is all about the middle of the process. It cannot explain neither the beginning of a species nor the end. hence the name, evolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parhamreza Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Ofcourse something came before, a Less chicken-ish animal. The process of getting chickens was a slow one, it probably started with dinaousers. but each step was taken at the inception of the egg as opposed to the birth of an animal. The animals DNA does not change after it is born. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piggger Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 perhaps two different types of birds mated to make a chicken egg :s :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunamonkey Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Alright then, which came first, the dinosaur or the egg :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerm Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 The egg came first. When a creature similar to a chicken procreated with another creature similar to a chicken the offspring by chance mutated, so the baby that hatches from the egg happens to be a chicken. Simple really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parhamreza Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 The egg. Because the Dinosaur was the egg at one point in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makeshift Hammer Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Alright then, which came first, the dinosaur or the egg :s 585782879[/snapback] You're getting closer......but once again, you have to assume the dinosaur has a predecessor too. :p There's always a step back that can be taken. so the "chicken / egg" question is one only the silliest of people will dwell on. Obviously the egg came before the chicken, but that doesn't mean the egg was the beginning, it only indicates the chicken came from the egg. The real question is, where did the egg come from? :p and once you answer that, you have to ask "where did whatever the egg came from come from." :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parhamreza Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 It's a little thing called infinite regress and is what you will evantually track EVERYTHING down to, the creation of the creator of all creation!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leesmithg Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Alright then, which came first, the dinosaur or the egg :s 585782879[/snapback] Since when did all Dinosaurs produce eggs? Via evolution Chickens evolved and layed Eggs, usually creatures at the bottom of the food chain lay Eggs in vast quantities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parhamreza Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Urm... Dinosaurs were reptiles. All reptiles reproduce through eggs, as do birds, who are really just evolved forms of dinosaurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunamonkey Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Right down at the end, It has to be some sort of squishy lifeform in an "egg form" that multiples by itself (like bacteria) So, it was an egg-shaped-pre-chicken-pre-dinosaur-squishy-one-celled-lifeform that came first.

Mike Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 who said anything about it being a chicken egg? so i'm going with the egg because dinosaurs layed eggs and i think they came before chickens :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makeshift Hammer Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Being the curious thing i am, i had a google at this question. It's apparent the chicken came first. it arrived at 10:31a.m and the egg arrived at 21:37p.m. 11hrs 6mins later. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
