The chicken has mutated/changed throughout evolution from another animal. So therefore the Egg!

Its the chicken because in the Bible it states that god created animals not eggs.

I'm still convinced it's the Chicken that came first.

The adult comes before the child.

Egg. I mean. Think about it this way. Imagine a creature very very very similar to a chicken, but it has a blunt beak. It lays an egg and the egg hatches, yet this one has a sharp beak.

The same thing happens with another, blunt beak, lays an egg, egg hatches, has a sharp beak. These two with a sharp beak find each other and reproduce, causing another sharp beak.

So, the egg came first, before it hatched into the chicken we know today.

Hey wait a minute...

If evolution is correct then the chicken really did come first.

Think about it, if a non-chicken creature reproduced a chicken... Then whatever creature started this whole mess is the original chicken.
So let's argue this... Which came first: The Adult or the Child?

But, ah, now where did that creature come from?

Life is a mysterious thing... I'd personally prefer to keep it that way.

"one should not increase, beyond what is necessary, the number of entities required to explain anything"

The principle states that the explanation of any phenomenon should make as few assumptions as possible, eliminating those that make no difference in the observable predictions of the explanatory hypothesis or theory.
Ockham's Razor is probably one of my favorite forms of thinking.

Not everything is complex, so step back - view the forest, not the individual tress - thus the answer will become clear.

I stand by my previous post- the circle has no beginning.

For example- work the problem backwards.

IF you believe in god, then since god has always been around, he has always held the chicken in his thoughts, as well as an egg. Being all omnipotent and all, he or i should say IT exists in all times and spaces. Therefor the chicken and egg have always existed.


If you believe in SCIENCE, then it's a simple statement of evolution and small changes to chickens over time; evolving from dinosaurs, who in turn evolved from single celled organisms.


In conclusions; the circle CANNOT have a beginning or it isn't by definition a circle.
