Going to say chicken.
The question implies that the egg is a chicken's egg. The dinosaur comment was clever, but irrelevant to the debate. We're talking about chickens and their eggs. That being said, I believe the chicken was created by God, but from an evolutionary standpoint (theoretical) I would say the egg came first. Macro-evolution is the evolution of an entire species slowly but surely. The chicken as we know it today has its own genetic code and DNA. This is why chickens continue to pop out an egg and create another chicken with the same genetic makeup. Logically, the life form that is a genetic mutation away from becoming a chicken can already produce an egg, and is just one step from being the complete chicken. At the point where it creates that egg, the egg possesses all the characteristics of a chicken.. That was a long winded, very circular theory. As are all evolutionary theories.... |
