It has been answered: The chicken came first!

[Individuo]

The chicken came first because eggs can't cum.

*sigh*

 

[chaos order]

That was easy. Its pretty obvious that God created the chicken first to lay more eggs. All this evolution crap is just dumb. If there was a "near chicken" or "almost chicken" where is the proof? there would be a fossil or something. You evolutionists arent big of proof are you? seeing as your...religion if you will...hasnt been proven. In fact its been disproven more that proven. Even evolutions founder, Charles Darwin, said it was wrong.

i dont know if hes joking or being serious..... SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE!

 

[PrototypeC]

This only proves that the egg could not exist without the chicken. While that may be the case, the fact remains that the chicken could not exist without the egg either. So... we're back where we started.

 

[Riobux]

That protein is only found, wait for it... inside a chicken.

In terms of currently alive species that haven't evolved into, say, a chicken or haven't died out.

 

[AndrewOfHell]

Enough of this crap!!!

It is the EGG if:

1) The theory of evolution is applied.

2) We can PROVE that the Chicken descended from a similar genetic family, fossils would help wonders.

In order for a species that now resembles today's Chickens to be born, it would have had to share characteristics of a species that lays eggs just like it, that ability would have been HUGE genetic tie to whatever the hell creature it mutated from, but we need evidence (see point 2). Therefore it would have to have hatched from an egg AND it would have had a genetic mutation whilst being split into an embryo INSIDE the egg for it to turn into a chicken. Therefore, it is IMPOSSIBLE for the chicken to have come first! IT WAS THE FREAKING EGG!

Game Over.

Question answered, now can we please find the 'Question' to the answer of 42?

Of course the egg came first, I don't think anyone has a chicken for breakfast, but loads of people eat chicken for lunch and dinner.

 

[manaman]

I want to ask what bearing that finding has on that question? A specific protein related to egg formation to the chickens wouldn't seem to have any to me, because even that first chicken was an egg at some point unless you believe in creationism.

 

[Tele-screen]

It is as I have long suspected. However, at some point there was a chicken who was the first genetically complete modern chicken and he/she had to have come out of an egg birthed from a non-chicken. Then it becomes a matter of semantics: is it a chicken egg that it came out of? or a non-chicken egg?

If I completely artificially craft an egg from scratch such that it will give birth to a chicken, have I created a chicken egg or a human egg or a technological egg? Perhaps others' thoughts differ, but to me this is obviously an artificially created chicken egg. "Artificial" modifies the egg independent of "chicken". I guess you could say, "proto-chicken-originated chicken egg". Although upon reflection, I suppose the genetic makeup of a chicken egg is that of its mother?? *throws hands up* Well, at least we agree that it's a chicken embryo inside that egg coming from a non-chicken, which I suppose is the important part.

I think the question is less answered than may have been previously thought. There are multiple problems of language, philosophy, and science that go into interpreting and answering such a simple question.

"Edinburgh's Warwick University". Is there something I missed? Cos Edinburgh and Warwick University are about half a country apart. Well-researched reporting is what impresses me most...

Also the research was geared towards problems in egg-shell formation rather than trying to solve a rhetorical question, for all you people going "who the fuck cares"

Question answered, now can we please find the 'Question' to the answer of 42?

What is six times eight?

 

[supagama]

i thought it was the egg

 

[Bourne]

Thank god researchers spent valuable grant money finding this out, now I can explain this to any smart ass who asks the chicken-egg question, only to get punched in the face for ruining their moment.

The human came first before the foetus... what?

What I really want to know: What IS the sound of one hand clapping?

quote]


I guess that one was too easy. I expected Bart Simpson's reaction in the episode where he learns how to play golf. So didn't expect a video of an a-synchronised hand-clap beat.

I don't want to ask 'If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one around, does it make a sound?' Because I get the most retarded answers without anyone listening to what I have to say to it.

(To make it short, there is no answer, it's a lesson. You need one to listen for the other to communicate. So there is no one without the other, no Yin without Yang. Get it?)

Actually Koans(which is what the teaching riddles are called) are more meant to teach a person to think laterally, to think in a different way, etc.

 

[supagama]

The egg came first.
But it wasn't layed by a chicken.

my theory exactly

 

[Shifty Tortoise]

I think people need to realise that the egg containing the first chicken, as we know it now, would not have been laid by one. It's basic freakin' evolution... Learn it ^^

The protein found inside the egg is likely just another part of the natural and ongoing evolution of all things chicken.

There, i have done in 2 minutes and 3 sentences what scientists have failed to do with labs, supercomputers and investment money, yw.

 

[Blue Musician]

This is what science is doing right now?
Man, they have obviously run out of ideas.

And where is your proof again?

On topic: It was a gradual process and since we weren't there during the process, I'd say its impossible to say. You'd have to determine what or what could first be described as a "chicken". Actually, the gradual process is still going. Nowadays, also because we injected a lot of cattle, they become more virus and fungus resistant. Result is that virusses and fungus adapt as well and make it a bigger threat to humanity.
