    Mmmm, definitely yum!


    My argument is usually 'Prehistoric animals laid eggs, and they were here before chickens, so eggs came first!'

    But what chicken came first? Did the chicken lay a chicken egg? Did the chicken evolve?
    Did a dino lay an egg which a chicken came out of?

    Totally bored.

    This is a much simpler question if you're a creationist. ;-D

    God created animals so the chicken came first then the egg.

    Whatever the chicken evolved from laid an egg in which was a chicken, so yeah, the egg necessarily came first.

    How do you know the devil didn't create the egg first?

    It was the egg. A similar but slightly non-chicken creature laid an egg which hatched into a chicken.

    no, the chicken had to come out of an egg at some point, some mystical being did not make a chicken magically appear fully grown out of thin air...
    Didn't happen, and nobody can prove it.

    There IS, however, TONS of scientific evidence that supports evolution.

    What came first the lizard or the egg?

    The fish. XD

    Considering dinosaurs hatched from eggs and chickens are more recent evolutionarily than dinosaurs, yes, eggs came first.

    No fundamentalist bashing, evolution has lots of strong evidence while spontaneous generation of all current life forms has um....zero evidence.
