Re: What Came First: The Chicken or the Egg - Final Answer [Re: Prisoner#1]

I just stumbled upon this article, published yesterday. But it still doesn't account for where the goddamn chicken came from, if not an egg. :crankey:

------------

'The chicken came first, not the egg', scientists prove
It’s an age-old puzzle that’s stumped generations of scientists.

http://www.metro.co.uk/news/835020-the-chicken-came-first-not-the-egg-scientists-prove

Eggs came after chickens... and that's a fact
But now they believe they have cracked the conundrum of what came first: the chicken or the egg.
British researchers say the chicken must have come first as the formation of eggs is only possible thanks to a protein found in the chicken’s ovaries.
‘It had long been suspected that the egg came first but now we have the scientific proof that shows that in fact the chicken came first,’ said Dr Colin Freeman, from Sheffield University, who worked with counterparts at Warwick University.
‘The protein had been identified before and it was linked to egg formation but by examining it closely we have been able to see how it controls the process,’ he added.
The protein – called ovocledidin-17 (OC-17) – acts as a catalyst to speed up the development of the shell.
Scientists used a super computer called HECToR, based in Edinburgh, to ‘zoom in’ on the formation of an egg.
It showed OC-17 was crucial in kick-starting crystallisation – the early stages of forming a shell.
The protein coverts calcium carbonate into calcite crystals which makes up the egg shell, creating six grammes of shell every 24 hours.
Prof John Harding, also of Sheffield University, said the discovery could have other uses.
‘Understanding how chickens make shells is fascinating in itself but can also give clues towards designing new materials,’ he said.
Next challenge: Why did the chicken cross the road?

i'd think chickens would have evolved from reptiles which lay eggs which evolved from certain fish which lay eggs which evolved from bacteria

The point is that a "pre-chicken" like species gave birth to an egg with a mutated offspring which we now call the modern "chicken".

Unless you disagree with evolution, the fucking egg came first. How does that not make sense? Their is no further argument only silly philosophical presuppositions from hence forth.

We know that God is good, and so are hamburgers and hot dogs. We know that hamburgers and hot dogs definitely do exist, so then by deduction of logic God too must also exist. Hamburgers + Hot dogs = God.... Duh
