Chicken or the egg

[GrandOldTeam]

The Egg question evokes the questions of how life in general began.

If the egg came first, is the same true with humans?

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I think we are referring specifically to the chicken egg, if so a bird must have evolved and formed the characteristics of a chicken and then laid an egg, which spawned the race of chickendom

 

[Seamus Colemole]

The Egg came first because the Egg predates the Chicken. Modern birds (including Poultry) evolved from the Dinosaurs, so Dinosaurs were hatching from Eggs long before the birth of the Chicken.

The real question should be what came first, the Dinosaur or the Egg?

Why didn't eggs get wiped out forever then?

 

[Nebbiolo]

I suppose a one-celled "creature" predates the chicken and its egg. But then it evolved into a chicken, which gave an egg. Or something like that.

So it's the chickenasaur.

If we are moving on to life in general, why not push boundaries and ask "How did the universe begin?"

Big bang or God?

I have to say i'm with the big bang. Watched "Master of the universe" by Hawkings today and that goes even further and asks what was around to cause the big bang. If he cant work it out, i wont worry about it.

My head hurts

Woooah Luke. One question at a time to solve ay. We'll get to the Universe tomorrow

Sorry, but think the convo was going that way. Single celled organisms were spoken about so why wait?

Joleon Lescott came first. There's only one Joleon Lescott.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Think Brownie has settled the argument there.

But clearly God could have started the big band (the vandal). That's what any theist worth his salt claims these days.

The question about what caused the big bang is good one, though. I'm sure Einstein had something to say about that, but I can't remember what.

I like to think it as a Brute Fact. Then no other explanantion is required. I'm taking a leaf out of the book of the religious lot.

Thats my night finished. Cant beat that

 

[GhostOfDixie]

Right, some JW came around the other day so I asked them the question. 3 of them had their head explode before they even had chance to show me the latest edition of The Watchtower, the fourth a brave soul took the question on.

"The Chicken was created on day 3. God moulded it with his own hands, and he called it Cyril.

some years later Cyril and Jesus were running around the dirt yard when Cyril dropped an Egg - this was apparently the second immaculate conception come to fruition. When Jesus ran into the house to show God the egg, God was so happy with his work he thanked both Cyril and Jesus - Nice One Cyril, Nice One Son. And his work was done.

He also apparently chuckled at the obvious head **** this conundrum was going to cause the masses over time."

Then his head exploded too, must have been a major taboo story to tell.

Maybe they came together. like those simultaneous orgasm thingies some people talk about. in some magazines. Or so I'm told
