Beacause chickens aren't really that intelligent and do not understand the dangers of crossing a road.

The chicken made a descision to cross the road. Its actions seemingly did not interfere with other peoples lives and said actions didnt cause any harm. Who are we to question his/her actions on crossing this road? Its the chickens business not ours you nosy little buggers!

Also: Why did the spy cross the road? Because he never really was on your side.

Therefore, chickens cross roads.


And if anybody understands what the hell that is meant to mean and represent, then you either do Mathematical Logic at university or you are a pretty smart and cultured cookie :)
I think I understand what it means. He may be talking about how we as mortals are people without direction and without direction we would just keep walking.
Not really, it's because Socrates was a complete idiot about certain things. He worked out that women had smaller brains than men because they had less teeth.

Which they don't.

It was an especially mentally ill chicken that crossed the road halfway then exploded onto the front of a lorry.

On topic: To get to it's eggs.
Hmmmmm, not quite. See, the clue is in the mention of Logic. I learned in my module that Socrates was one of the earliest pioneers of the entire subject of Mathematical Logic, and he came up with a series of what he called syllogisms. He came up with 19 which were meant to define propositional logic, i.e. logic involving certain statements implying various consequences. Each syllogism had a different rule. One of them was:

If A, then B.
If B, then C.

Therefore, if A, then C.


He used the following example to illustrate this:

All men are mortal.
Socrates is a man.

Therefore, Socrates is mortal.


I simply used that in the post. Not very original, but I guess that's not too much of a problem...

PC Brigade: More importantly, why isn't there a special chicken crossing put up in case chickens do want to cross the road.

The Escapist : "Why all the hate on chickens?" or "Ask a Chicken..."
These two are brilliant. :D

OP: Seth MacFarlane: A chicken crossed the road? That reminds me of the time I went skydiving with Willem Defoe.
