"What came first the chicken or the egg?"

its the egg... please prove me wrong.

I think with evolution and stuff everything evolved and one of those weird things kept laying eggs, these eggs became more like chickens everytime they hatched untill we got chickens.

Although I don't belive in evolution and I'm just guessing that statement.

Oh right; was it Phoebe who used that arguement?

I see Forest is arguing Pheobe's case.

To lay this whole chicken/egg debate to rest; what comes first a baby or its mother? The mother. The end.

How can I believe in evolution?

Makes no sense.

Surely if an egg contains a chicken embryo it is a chicken egg, whatever hatched it. But that's just a question of semantics. And then, it would only be relevant if the question was 'Which came first, the chicken or the chicken egg?'.

Whichever way you look at it, every chicken that ever existed came from an egg (whatever you choose to name that egg). So the egg came always came before the chicken.

What about the pea or the pod or me or her?

I'm allergic to egg when prepared certain ways, so I'm always happier to see chicken on my plate.

Fantastic! :D

How do we know the chicken came from an egg... could the first Chicken have been born by some other means?

Acording to Greek legend eggs are apparently male whilst Chickens are female...

And going on the general trend (although not in my case) it is normally the male that cums first.

So I say the Egg.
