Genesis 1
And God said, "Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky." So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living and moving thing with which the water teems, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. God blessed them and said, "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth."

by creating the chicken in his 7 days of creation. If you belive in the bible , then the chicken came before the egg.

but where does it define birds as specifically chickens

Birds could be metaphorical for winged creatures

and "water teeming with living creatures" could refer to the earliest lifeforms which existed in the water

creatures which would then evolve to become the chicken, so egg could in actual fact still potentially come before the chicken

the begining of genesis seems to just briefly sum up time, puttin their own religious twist on it, and in my opinion actually trivialises the issue of evolution....shit i bet there are a lot of airheads who only have a bible as a source of info on time and space and think its as simple as god saying "let there be light" etc.

but meh

I thought common science told us the chicken came before the egg through the poison of the birth canal

__________________

Neither chicken or egg came first.

Small single cell organisms came first, which slowly built up to create a wide range of species. The chicken is an animal that would have slowly evolved from ancient animals that were probably larger and more robust.

Heres a tip....

The bible is not a history lesson.. Its a metaphorical fabel to explain the unexplainable in philosophical terms from back when science was non-existant.

can't argue facts is facts. so how do you mean?

bro, My original post is attacking the bibles scripture of being so mythilogical its not funny.

well here's the long story short:

all organism that give birth through eggs used to give live birth, but their body got so toxicly shocked that their body delivered their young in a self contained sack to get the young out of the body which hardens in the air and becomes the egg shell. The contents of the egg is still the exact same placenta as it'd normally be.

word is due to toxic shock, humanity will eventually give birth the same way.
