Todos no son correctos, el huevo vino primero; el gato puso el huevo y salió un pollogato próximamente después...

Yeah, I saw a tv show with that information that you have told us here, the egg was first than the other one, because the kitchen can't be the first in the earth, already that the kitchen needed to be first a egg before that a animal, and the egg is easier to create with bacteria, it like than the dinosaur happened time before.


Irmamar, I like to see your previous post written in English thus as it's written now.

Irmamar, I can understand you, but I want to read your own text in English. You know it's only practice for you.

Good trip!

I'm not going to Bilbao (Bilbo, here), I have no time, next Monday I'll have to go working again. I'm in Guipúzcoa (Donostia or S. Sebastián) and perhaps I'm going to Vitoria tomorrow. I'm not sure.

Crotalito, maybe when I come back I'll do.

We call these questions Byzantine discussions (I don't know if it's the same in English). But a well done question would be with a hen, not with a chicken (up till now, nobody knows a chicken which had laid an egg.

Scientifics gave the answer years ago: first it was the egg. At first, the egg is a single-cell organism (it'll have time to evolve later); a hen is a multicellular organism. To get a multicellular organism we need to fertilize that hen ovule so it can be turned into several cells, taking place the being called hen. Following the evolution theory, when the first hen was born after several evolutional stages, she came out from an egg.

Therefore: first it was the egg and long, very loooooong before, the bacterium.

And now, tell me: why did you want to see the text in English? Do you want to find mistakes here? I know there are mistakes, although I'm not able to find them. English is not my first language, not even my second one

You're right the bacteria came out first necessary the bacteria had to be first in the evolution, and the thread of the evolution, therefore I believe that always but always the thread of the chicken and the egg, always the answer about it will be the same, than now, bacteria created to the chicken and later laid eggs.

I wanted see your text written in English, because I wanted to see if you're able to write everything you write in English till you have mistakes it's normal even although you don't be American.


First was the chicken and later very later and long time before but long time before, was now the egg.

I don't believe, you made a stupid question, I believe more well a genius ask, and well my answer to your question is the bacteria made to the chicken and later chicken laid eggs and the bacteria came out of the space.

Again with the chicken and the egg?

First it was the egg

A Samuel Butler's quote, to make it clearer:

A hen is only an egg's way of making another egg (sometimes wisdom is inside short sentences)

There is wisdom here. Hens have evolved from other birds, and before that from reptiles, all of which laid eggs. Therefore eggs came long before chickens QED.
(In more modern terms we can say that chickens are merely a means of propagating a particularly successful strain of DNA, which is passed on wrapped in an egg.) I will not even attempt to write this in Spanish!!
