Chicken or the egg?

Oka which do you think came first the chicken or the egg. In your first post give your oppionin then in the next defend it.
I am putting my money in for the chicken

Please do not tease other members, or critisize them.
But explain why you think they are wrong.

 

Well the question in itself is a circulation. Each originate from each other and beget the other. In a sense there really is no definitive answer unless there is more of a context for which the question begs.

You can argue the chicken, only by stating the absurd possibility that the chicken was created or hatched from an egg that did not come from a chicken to begin with and assume the chicken is the first and only chicken. This of course would then contradict the very question you tried to prove; a chicken comes from a non-chicken but can lay eggs that grow to become chickens. Similarly if you assume the egg occurred first and will grow into a chicken, it would've had to come from a non-chicken being as the chicken as we know it would simply begin to exist once the egg hatched.

You could argue the egg itself. For instance: Is it even a chicken egg to begin with? It could be a reptile egg. The question really only implies that we should think in a circular frame of thought regarding the egg. It's the lack of information/context that makes the opinion or answer on the matter completely irrelevant and the question invalid.

 

The concept of starting by a small cell remains a sure-factor in this. So whether or not the egg came or the chicken came first, isn't really a matter that any of us can answer... since biology works in odd ways. o.O

Though I'd have to say that the chicken & hen came first... through egg-like spawn...? XD

 

It also depends on what you define a 'chicken' as. Chickens were not always as they are now. So if I had to choose I would go with the chicken coming first, as the chicken as we know it would have to be hatched at some point =/

 

So how can one awnser a absurd questin?
With a absurd awnser of course!lol

oka back on topic. i think the chicken would come first because a egg itself can not survive without a hen, which warms it up. But if the hen was never a egg how did it begin. we could go on forever about this.

Its the circle of confusionlol

I go with the chicken mostly because of my religion.
(no flamming please)
But since no one likes hearing about it i will keep my mouth shut for know.

But i agree that the chicken sounds like a better choice.

 

I'm going to quote the Harry Potter books for this one:

The answer is that a circle has no end.

Nobody knows which came first. Honestly, how do you figure out where any type of cycle started? You can't.
​

 

...yeah, I'm gonna go with the chicken came first.

 

Obviously the chicken. The chicken was created and makes eggs.

 

good option, but how do you think the chiken came about?

 

But where did the chicken come from other than an egg?

That's why its a circle.
​

 

>.< Yeah so this has no answer to it, and you can debate all you want but I know full well it will just be like this


Which came first?

The chicken!

But where did the chicken come from?

Erm ok then the egg!

But where did the egg come from?


erm ok the chicken?

It is a cycle, a circle and this will never be resolved :3
