Which came first

1
Which came first?

• The CHICKEN or the EGG?

2
An Age Old Question

• As long as man has had the brains to think, the
  question, to wonder, an age old question has been
  asked. Which came first? The Chicken or the Egg?
  It has been supposed that this question really
  has no answer, as there is no chicken with out an
  egg, and there is no egg without a chicken.

3
The Chickens Story

• Is it possible that the chicken came first? There
  are theories that suggest so. How would an egg
  come about? A chicken. Not all chickens come from
  eggs, but all eggs come from chickens, therefore
  suggesting that the first chicken did not come
  from an egg, and came before eggs in general.

4
The Eggs Story

• Just as there are theories supporting the
  chicken, there are theories supporting the egg as
  well. What egg is referred to in the question? Is
  it the egg of a chicken, or any egg? Dinosaur
  eggs came before chickens. And perhaps the
  philosophy in the previous slide is incorrect. Is
  it that all chickens come from eggs, but not all
  eggs come from chickens?

5
The Dual Philosophy

• There is another theory, another philosophy, that
  brings up the point that perhaps, neither the egg
  nor the chicken came first, that instead, they
  came into our world at precisely the same time,
  and in harmony, created our world. However, the
  Duel Philosophy is much looked down upon as an
  unintelligent method of thinking and downright
  preposterous.

The Balanced Diet Philosophy

• After the Duel Philosophy was shot down, theories
  began popping up all over the world. One
  supported theory, still popular today, is that
  quite simply, the egg came first. Why? You eat
  eggs for breakfast, in the morning, and chicken
  for lunch or supper.

7
The Balanced Diet Philosophy

• The details of this philosophy bring up the point
  that everyone has had eggs. Not one individual
  remembers a time without eggs. All memories are
  blank until one eats their first egg. Therefore,
  the egg must come first. It is unthinkable that
  in a balanced diet, one would eat chicken before
  eggs.

8
Why the philosophy stands

• Many, at first, thought some fool was being a
  smart cookie and making up a ridiculous idea
  that did not relate to the question. But, is the
  balanced diet in life symbolizing history? Maybe,
  maybe not, but it is more relevant and believable
  then the Duel Philosophy.

Project Chicken and Egg

• To discover which truly came first and which
  philosophy was correct, researchers and
  scientists decided to begin a project, Project
  Chicken and Egg. A chicken specimen and an egg
  specimen would be observed for thirty days. Which
  ever died/cracked/showed change first would
  naturally come first, since its lifespan would be
  farther ahead then the other.

10
An Egg named Chicken

• The egg in the experiment was oddly enough, named
  Chicken. When asked about the project, and how
  the egg felt about it, Chicken replied, Well, I
  dont see what all the fuss is about. Clearly, as
  the Balanced Diet Philosophy states, I came
  first. This whole project is rubbish and will
  prove nothing.

11
A Chicken named Egg

• The chicken participating in the project was
  named Egg. This is brilliant! explained Egg.
  It The Project will show belief that no
  philosopher has studied, and will prove once and
  for all, that I, Egg the chicken, came before
  Chicken the egg.

12
Project Results

• The results did not help scientists in the least
  bit. On the twenty-ninth day of the experiment,
  Egg and Chicken had a private conversation, and
  ran away. They each left a note explaining that
  neither was showing any signs different from when
  they had started, and an argument as to why they
  came before the other.

13
Chicken and Egg The Movie

• In the Fall of 2010, the movie Chicken and Egg,
  about the project and its results, will hit
  theaters. Many questions are said to be answered
  with its release. By then, will the question be
  answered? Did the egg come before the chicken, or
  is it the other way around? And who will be cast
  as Chicken the egg and Egg the chicken?

14
Conclusion

• Until the released of the movie, all the world
  can do is ask, wonder, and think. Which came
  first? Is there an answer? Is a current theory
  correct? Do chickens and eggs know the answer,
  but protect it as a secret? All one can say is
  Which came first? The CHICKEN OR THE EGG? The
  world may never know
