Getting Laid for Chickens 1:01

I truly doubt that I am the only reader to find this insightful avian conundrum to be at the utmost provocateur eggstreme. The chicken or the egg theory has most certainly ruffled a perpetual feather or two over the generations however, did you know that the quandary itself can actually be quite easily eggsplained?

These day’s, there is resounding scientific evidence that modern birds have evolved from the small predatory dinosaurs of the Mesozoic era. Most paleontologists will agree that modern birds are direct descendents of the Jurassic Period from the Mesozoic era dinosaurs.

Many inhabitants of the Jurassic period including the dinosaur were egg layers. In nature, the laying of external eggs allowed for a large number of offspring without having to carry around the additional weight.

According to archaeological theory, modern chickens evolved from Mesozoic dinosaurs, which in turn have evolved over millions of years from oceanic primordial goo that produced the very first unicellular organisms.

Therefore, chickens are the direct ancestors of prehistoric amphibious reptiles that have evolved from an aquatic existence to later inhabit the terra firma during the warmer ‘Permian’ era. So there, the Egg was first.

These early reptiles were generally small with a longer backside. Species continuity via external egg laying were present in both amphibians and reptiles during this period and these traits continued during the next evolutionary period in which the Reptilian variants became warm-blooded, developed feathers and began to fly.

The ‘chicken or the egg’ theory though has more recently manifested itself as a metaphor for a circumstance in which no clear ordering can be determined, known as cyclical cause-and-effect.

There are many real world examples of the Chicken or the Egg theory, in which the question helps to identify the analytical problem at hand for instance, the fear of economic downturn will cause people to spend less which reduces demand thus causing economic downturn.

Another is, ‘more jobs causes more consumption which inturn requires more production and thus more jobs create more housing which leads to increasing credit card debit and rising interest rates due to increased inflation’.

Last but not least, a personal favourite, the fear of war can make people more violent; the resulting violence causes more fear, the rest is documented history.
The moral of this story could infact be that getting laid stops unemployment, economic downturns and wars.
