Which came first?!

[ErickaVolt]

Which came first the chicken who laid the eggs or the eggs who hatch into a chick[en]? I am confused, I don't know which one of them came first.

 

[Mooshykris]

Being a Creationist myself, I will have to say the Chicken.

However, just for point of arguement, I don't believe it, but God COULD have created the egg which then hatched :P.

The chicken. How could their be an egg without a chicken? Doesn't make sense to me...

 

[moments.]

The chicken was first it says so in the Bible. Not sure where, but it was proved to us by our Religion teacher a few years back.
God created the animals, not the stage of development before them. He didn't create the embryo, he created the human...

I circle never ends. There is no point arguing who came first. It'll be in vain and takes an infinity to reach the answer.

 

[storm393]

im guessing the chicken because there couldent be an egg with out a chicken but than there also couldent be a chicken with out an egg..... there's a possibility that there could be a very first chicken! the chicken over lord :D

The chicken obviously came first. The chicken evolved/mutated from _____. Soon the chicken started laying eggs.

Then answer this, what comes before the evolved/mutated chicken of yours?

 

[Eon-Rider]

Pfft... Some organism that mutated from another organism etc.

EDIT: I just decided to Google it and found an explanation on HowStuffWorks and what they say seems right so I guess I'm changing my answer to an egg. >_>

The point is, there is no infinite cycle.

The egg, from an evolutionary standpoint. It was laid by the immediate ancestor of the modern chicken.

It shows that that you've done your research well! >.> All organisms, whether chicken or some freaky monster have the same DNA. So hands down, the egg(whether reptilian or amphibian) came first, scientifically.

The answer is simple. The Chicken came first, (prehistoric chicken had to lay the egg)

Spoiler:

I wont play the 'God' card but I do belive god did create life.

 

[Michii]

The egg came first, not the chicken. Since I believe that the chicken evolved from some prehistoric being, I think the first chicken was hatched out of an egg. The mutation had to be happening from egg to egg over thousands of years, so the first chicken must have come from the egg, since it could have no other way of being alive. The chicken came first, you say? Then how was that chicken born, from a rock? Birthed from a mutant carrot? It came from an egg, and so the egg came first! :]]

 

[Tater Tot]

Logically, the Chicken came first. Scientifically, the egg came first. However, religiously (not all religions) the chicken came first. So, the chicken wins. And.. I accidentally clicked on eggs. XD

 

[Belinda]

Supposedly the chicken came first XD.

 

[Joey the Cockroach]

I would say the egg. Well you don't get chickens from nowhere do you? And an egg hatches into a chicken, so I would stick with egg.

 

[jasonresno]

Biblically, the chicken did.

 

[Yamikarasu]

Well, if you want to be scientific then it was the egg that was laid by a chicken-like ancestors that was closely related enough to still breed with chickens but not technically a chicken. So the egg. But we'll never know for sure, will we?

 

[Legobricks]

I am surprised there are more creationists than evolutionists.

 

[thatrabidfangirl]

Chicken, because the egg-laying chook of today was OBVIOUSLY some sort of genetic mutation from scaled, non-egg laying parents. Duh.
