Which Came First?

This is what we talk about over dinner in my house.

“Which came first, the chicken or the egg?”

If you’re a Creationist, the chicken obviously came first, because God created the first chickens, which subsequently laid eggs.

If you’re an Evolutionist, the egg obviously came first, since a genetic mutation in an offspring somewhere along the line caused a non-chicken to lay an egg which then turned into a chicken.

Think about the ramifications of that.

Note: If you believe in Intelligent Design, it doesn’t matter which came first, because we lowly humans are too stupid to understand the egg-chicken dynamic. Which is why we obviously shouldn’t ask.
