Evolutionists would say the egg (e.g: the newborn mutated to form a chicken)

this:

a super-insane alien race came to earth and created the chicken and the egg, in hope that because of the paradox, human will be utterly confused about this problem, and never move on to become a threat to them.

that race is the "space chickens", however, no one can explain whether their associate race "space eggs" or them came first

some "space chickens" speculates that the "quantum chickens" did it, the "space eggs" offer no opinion, as they have not hatched yet =D

Except, if the animal that laid the egg wasn't a chicken.

I'm voting chicken. I like the thought of things going in alphabetical order.

I've always thought egg.
Only because it seems more likely that an egg could form from a rock or something than a chicken pops from thin air.
baha ok both sound unlikely

Evolutionists would say the egg (e.g: the newborn mutated to form a chicken)

really? i thought it'd be a chicken, and then genetic mutation = egg.

That doesn't make sense. Why would genetic mutation be required for an egg that came from a chicken? It makes more sense that some other species laid an egg that mutated to provide the first chicken.

well actually i think it depends on how you define a chicken.

if a chicken is something that hatches from an egg, then obviously the egg came first.

if a chicken is something that lays eggs (but may not have hatched from one), then the chicken came first.
