Which came first the chicken or the egg?
I've found three answers:
1. Grammatically speaking the chicken came first, as I typed to word chicken before the word egg.
2. Evolutionarily speaking the egg came first, since birds evolved from egg laying reptiles (so the egg existed before the chicken).
3. Cosmologically speaking neither the chicken or the egg came first, because both are make of matter; And all matter was created at the same time with the big bang.
Can anyone think of any other possible answers?
Which came first the chicken or the egg?
There are a few more possible answers:
Alphabetically speaking the chicken came first as C comes before E in the alphabet.
Or gastronomically speaking the egg come first. As if I were to start cooking a chicken and an egg, the egg would be cooked first (approx. 3 mins).
In running race the chicken would come first as an egg has no legs and so cannot run. Although if the race was downhill the egg might win by rolling.
I'm starting to get silly now!
The egg! And not necessarily a chicken egg!
If there once were a first chicken (wathever your definition of a chicken is) the chicken would have had come from a chicken egg first.
... if your definition of a chicken egg is that it have chicken DNA. But if you'd call it a reptile or some other bird egg because they born the chicken would have come before the chicken egg.
It's all about definitions.

CORRECTION!

Is this question that I'm about to post here really realistic? Does time/space have an end?
No, but it goes both direction.
The physics of space is identical whichever direction time takes.
The chicken came before it made the egg.

Grotesque :p

The chicken either means the specie in general or a specific chicken.
I think the first chicken was some mutant dinosaur born of dinosaur egg....therefore egg first!
Could the earth have started out as a giant egg and then hatched millions of chickens and other creatures?
I thought this an hilarious thread and thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks for the laugh. Mom
Time and space is like a doughnut with no beginning and no end.
Drop an egg and a chicken from a high-rise building--the chicken is able to flap it’s wings to brake it’s fall.
So the egg comes first…to the ground.
