Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Debate

[Grimace]

Chicken, because I'm a shameless Christian nutcase, as I bet some people would say.

Even going by creationism, god didn't create chickens.

I also am christian he did make chckens study the darn bible please

....So you're saying god made the animal that we have clear records showing they were made by humans a few thousand years ago?
Are you going to also argue god made Tamaskan dogs which were just made like 20 years ago, or all the other dog breeds that came into existence like 30 years ago?
Because its the exact same process.

I believe that chickens, like all other living things, descended from bacteria that formed from various elements in the Earth's early days. As time goes on many new forms of life begin to evolve from the initial bacterium population our Earth had amassed. After millions of years early forms of birds began to lay eggs. After each generation of eggs, the hatchlings became more chicken-like. One day, a true chicken hatched from an egg, so therefore the egg came first.

Hrm. My opinion changed somewhat. God created that jungle fowl fella, but us humans made a tame/domestic/lablahla version of it. Egg. And then scatted wolves came, then we poked and prodded them to make dogs. Wo-- wait, that's a completely different topic.
Now how about cats . . .
Excuse me, need to think about them cats. I was tired the last time I typed that last message.

Okay. I say a female chicken came first. Then a male chick hatched from that egg and chicken became the flavor of 99% of all food >.> But seriously about the first part: female chicken, male chick hatches from egg >.> I don't believe in evolutioin, so in my belief, chickens didn't evole from dinos...there's just no way that a bird came froma reptile...that's like saying humans evolved from fish...Just impossible in my oppinion...x3

Believing in god has nothing to to with where chickens came from. God, regardless of existing or not didn't make chickens. Humans made chickens. We bred them from junglefowl. Sort of like how a god did not create wolves because humans directly did that themselves.

Also you're forgetting that birds are still basically toothless raptors with no hands. Most dinosaurs were warm blooded.

Heres what a velociraptor looked like.


Here is a modern bird.


Notice how most birds basically look like tailless dinosaurs?


Its not like the dinosaur to bird change was a lizard turning into a bird. It was basically a dinosaur growing a few more feathers, and losing the teeth and tail. (fun fact: we can currently breed birds that have teeth and tails) Also don't forget birds have scales, and that feathers are also just a type of scale.

I must say the two resemble each other in many ways!

Hello you are obviously not a christian or may not be a beliver in god also known as an athieast god did make chickens it is in the bible. The animals were made first the first chickens were able to fly and we made meat chickens out of them so they could not fly it was already large boned and crossing it with larger boned chickens made its meat less tough if that is what you mean but chickens have been around the third day god made the world. We have no records of us creating chickens but we do have records of god creating chickens and the dogs were called mutts untill someone wanted to organize them in groups so they were not mixed up all the time.

Um, no. You don't have to be a scientist(which is a job/career) to believe or know that a theory exists.

And there are many Christians who believe in evolution. I personally have mixed opinions on evolution and creationism

I believe that the chicken came first, because God made mature animals first.
