I have a tougher one for you.
What came first? God or man?

im gonna go with the egg
dinosaurs had eggs
theyre older than chickens
therefore the egg came first
The egg. That's what the chicken came out of.
It's parents were two birds slightly different from what we call chickens.
That's the explanation I'm happy with anyway.
I'll go with the egg, with the same reason that chickens were eggs before they ever learn to walk...

You know, you made this exact same thread on the same day in 2005...
I'm pretty sure there was also another thread where I answered this question or maybe it was just a discussion I had with Bean Bandit...
The egg came first, following the theory of evolution you have two chicken like parents who have offspring which have a different gene/genes that make them the first chickens.

i say a Highly Advanced Brilliant Species that had Knowledge of Genetic Engineering came first... then 2 eggs 1 male 1 female.... and after much Trial and Error... THEy finally got it right! the exact little feathered creature that tastes like everything that doesnt taste like anything...

I put my money on the chicken.It gave the egg.How did the chicken came?Well some unnatural force threw it from another dimension trough a black hole and the chicken fell onto Earth thus resulting in massive egg laying process.
The question is: what came first: Egg laying fish or the egg which came out an egg laying fish. The fish became the chicken. So it gradually happened. Which means the egg was first. But was first. Egg laying fish. Or the eggs of the fish?

This question is a lot like asking "What came first? The mother or the child?" Obviously the mother did. If we look at the story of Adam and Eve it was about God creating man and woman out of nothing, without their being something to give birth to them other than God himself. Therefore I believe that the chikcen came first. God made the chicken, the chicken made the egg. That is my non-scientific answer.
Alas, that it why it is such a hard question to answer to.
That which is; is the truth.
Only fools accept the obvious and go no farther.Common sense isn't so common anymore."I'll follow you everywhere you go in my oh-so-inconspicuous bright red car and convince myself you don't notice."4// Itchy. Tasty.
You know, I always sort of feel bad for these questions that become repeated over and over again until they have lost all meaning.
This question was originally put forth by philosophers who wondered about the origin of life before evolution was known about. From that context, the question makes some sense. Were Chickens created (or came into being) as eggs, or full grown chickens? Makes some sense.
Of course, now after Evolution has been both discovered and proved true, we can put this question to rest- the jungle fowl that were domesticated into chickens laid eggs. Ergo, no matter at what point you define the animal to be chicken and not jungle fowl, you are left with an egg that hatches into a chicken.
Now can we all, as a people, move on the the question about the Tree falling in an empty forest? It at least still has some meaning, not that anyone tries to grasp it.
Ehhh, I dunno if I'll stick around. We'll see.

The sound is made. Just because their is no person in the specified location to hear the tree falling does not at all mean the sound did not still exist. The tree has fell, so the sound was made. No one did hear it so in a way it was not a sound at all, but the noise that it makes still did exist at that moment when it clashed with the ground.
That which is; is the truth.
It's like asking, "what came frist, the adult or the baby/fetus?" I would think a chicken came first. God made a male and a female and later they reproduced. So I'd think he'd do the same with animals.

I'm not saying it's a wrong answer, but, how would the egg have received warmth and once hatch, where would it have found nutrition and the sort?

Once again, amazing props to the talented Paprika!!
This smile kills....
See, that's what I'm talking about. Very few people understand the philosophical nature of that question, and assume that it is question of causality, like the Chicken and the Egg.
To rephrase the question: If an event happens, and no one observes it, can it be considered an event? Your answer then would depend on whether or not you think an objective reality exists, and what value you'd give an event that effects no one even assuming an objective reality. I would say that the sound a tree that falls in an empty forest makes is irrelevant, and might as well not exist. It is only through observation that an event has meaning.
Protip: The jungle fowl that were domesticated into chickens would have taken care of their young, because the change was gradual. That's what evolution is. Gradual.Originally Posted by Smile1010
Also, Chickens were the result of selective breeding, so even if the Jungle fowl for some reason refused to take care of their young that resembled them in almost every way, there would still be humans around to do it.

The egg fell from the sky and ta-dah,there it is.
THERE HAD TO BE AN EMBRYO!
How come no one has mentioned evolution.Maybe eggs are the stationairy creature,but with evolution they turned into chicks.

How are you going to get the egg if you don't have the chicken?
Ahhh! X) got you on that one.
I think the chicken came before the egg.
