Chicken or the Egg?

Not too sure really. Are you are creationist of a follower of Darwin? Or maybe a new age person, in which case our advanced brothers created the chicken in the “Living Designs Section” and then added the reproductive plan. In which case the design of the chicken came first followed by its means of reproduction. QED the Chicken wins :)

Ah well it is late on Sunday evening :) Cheers friends

This creation started life as a pencil sketch, conceived and completed on a train journey.

I love this take on an ancient conundrum. Aristotle’s answer to this vexatious question was that they both always existed. Me … I’m a chicken man.
Tom Godfrey replied

Thanks Peter. I guess Life/God/Creative Force….must always have been, that’s the biggest conundrum for me. The 50/50 flip…nothing always or everything always. Luckily the coin landed on everything :)

I reckon the space engineers would have designed the chicken first with the egg potential for self replication..if the egg came first, who would have nurtured it? many ways of looking at this I guess

I love this. My addition to the argument – eggs have been around since the dinosaurs, chickens came later…. 8-)
