Which came first - Chicken or Egg?

[ClassyElephant_]

I think the egg came first because the egg had to make the chicken to make the egg.

[Ridens]

the egg

[ClassyElephant_]

the egg

I agree

[Chip]

Well obviously the egg or there would be no chicken
and how was the egg made when there wasn't a chicken? a fat dinosaur and a flying dinosaur had sex and left the egg behind
that's why chickens can't fly, he's too fat, and the only way they can lose weight is by flying which can never be achieved > my theory is totally valid and is used in the historical reference book

yo motha came first last night

you can't even get with my mother
and technically speaking my dad came first

Well, it's one of the most speculated things ever, and I've narrowed it down to this:
-The egg gave birth to the chicken
-The chicken had to have laid the egg
-It's a paradox, but scientists have found an answer in this article: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38238685...hicken-or-egg/
-Summary of article-the chicken has a protein in its ovaries that is unique to the chicken that is necessary for the formation of the egg.

Oh look, this thread again.
Hasn't it already been scientifically proven which came first?

Idk, i jus thought it would be interesting to debate... again

[2amayzingman~]

Both so no fight.

[Chip]

Both so no fight.

one has to come first so don't even bother fighting

[2amayzingman~]

Ok i choose egg.

[Fera.]

Well the egg scientifically has to be incubated if it is to hatch. Considering there is nothing that could incubate the chicken in the first place, there stands to be reason as to how the egg hatched in the first place. Evolutionists would suggest a chicken like creature hatched the egg, but this can't be so considering the nature of the egg. Certain conditions need to apply to allow the chicken to hatch that an evolutionary chicken cannot provide such as the nutrients of the mother down to the very amount and what is contained inside of the egg. This cataclysmic occurrence can only result in the chicken before the egg. Therefore Chicken then egg.

Of course I won't make everyone think some different way, but hey, the thread's purpose was to express your opinion and well... I did.

[~Twisted]

I could make a long explanation about how the egg came before the chicken, but it's not even worth it.

[named444]

For there to be an egg, there must be a chicken (that's how I was raised).

But... for there to be a chicken, there must be an egg

[~▲†▲~]

Nope, because the chicken evolved from more primitive species

[AreUTalking2Meh]

Nope, because the chicken evolved from more primitive species

But wouldn't those primitive species need to lay an egg so that the chicken came out of that?

[~▲†▲~]

When the chicken came to be it had developed unique egg-laying methods; the way that the chicken creates the shell of an egg was something that had never been used before
