Poll: The Chicken or the Egg

[Liberty Kaelen]

You've all heard the saying, which came first? The chicken or the egg? But what do you think? Vote now!

 

[Diagoras]

The chicken.

 

[Tony Alraur]

Which egg are you referring to?

Through evolution, eggs existed long before chickens evolved; so this places the egg's creation prior to the chicken. However, if you are referring to a chicken egg; then our knowledge of life shows that the chicken existed prior to the creation of its egg.

The chicken of course! The chicken layed the egg, which brought more chickens who layed more eggs. And chickens are just awesome like that.

 

[Amelie Hennion]

Egg. It's basic genetics.
The theory of evolution suggests a slow mutation leading from a specie to an other. (I say "suggests" to be rigorous, Science never proves, it suggests things and those theories stay plausible until proven wrong. But Evolution is my strongest belief, if you are a creationist, you will disagree with me)

We know dinosaurs laid eggs, some of them were able to fly, and birds species come from them.
With this slow evolution, the first chicken (as we know it) came from an egg laid by a specie close to the chicken we know.
There is no genetic change possible between the moment the egg was laid and the moment it becomes a chicken. So, the egg was first.

I hope I explained it clearly enough, it's hard to do it in English for me!

The egg. Because it would have ivolved inside the egg first

Yeah, But you need an egg to have a chicken!

It depends what sort of egg we are talking of. It would have been a gradual change and now a sudden change. Now, if we go back to the theory of the dawn of time where the single celled amoebas ruled the earth, the amoebas would have gradually changed into the early beings which could then reproduce and -some of them- lay eggs.
I could go on for hours but IMHO, I believe it was the chicken first. Well.. A form of chicken like creature which would gradually adapt and evolve and pass on those genes to its offspring which would then change also and at some point down the line, become the chickens we know today.
Of course, this theory can easily be switched in favour of the egg having come first in which case, and in all honesty, the solution is scarcely worth the headache of solving the problem.

The egg, It was probably birthed from another two animals who accidentaly created a new animal; the chicken ​

 

[Ylva Kvalheim]

Just explaining the reason for my declaration of 'chicken', I deduced that from a Christian perspective. I don't reckon God would've made an egg first. He would have made lots of chickens, of course!

 

[Amycus Zhefarovich]

its egg, i don't have to explain it ...

 

[Ivana Kalforovich]

Well the Egg,

Explanation: Look up

I agree with this. ^^

THE CHICKEN. No matter what, the bible doesn't said egg as the first

 

[Ryan Porter]

The egg because where would have the chicken come from in the first place?

 

[Julian Faulkner]

ME! I came first!

 

[Ryan Porter]

ME! I came first!

 

[Leo Shephard]

Yeah but where did the egg come from if the Chicken never laid it?

And FYI, Adam And Eve came first.

 

[Ryan Porter]

But where did the chicken come from, an egg. And im more into the science of how the world was made, not a religious person

 

[Estrella Drage]

And FYI, Adam And Eve came first.

Although I don't treat the bible as fact, I'd like to point out that in Genesis, the animals were created before Adam and Eve. So, no, Adam and Eve did not come before the chicken or the egg.

I'm not one to care which came first. Since the universe and existence itself are so vast and unexplainable, the place of both the chicken and the egg in time is irrelevant to me.

I stand corrected, the Chicken came before Adam and Eve. But I'm confused now, I no longer know what team I am on. Team Chicken Or Team Egg.

I'm in team Chicken !
