Thanks Darwin!
My vote seems to have just tipped it 11-10 for the Egg guys

Anyway, Matt... I, like everyone else, have thought about this question sometime in life. I have thought the EXACT SAME THING you think. However, it's wrong.

Ie, humans don't lay eggs, but perhaps through evolution, we will. But that doesn't happen suddenly. What you seem to say is that a chicken-like animal just suddenly laid a chicken AS A chicken. A chicken lays eggs, so the animal which laid the chicken can't have laid an animal in the span of two SLIGHTLY differing animal forms! Evolution doesn't happen that fast. Logically, the animal prior to the chicken would have laid an egg (or something MUCH more like an egg than an animal), which contained the first chicken... It was the egg!
