And if you do not understand the chicken came first, then you do not understand longtime science mysteries. Too many people believed evolution which taught that the egg came first, but the secular (atheist) scientists were wrong. The egg can't fertilize itself. One needs a chicken and rooster. Also, the chicken produces the protein that coats the egg. We all know that one needs a cell to produce protein. It can't pop into existence at the molecular level.Some of the Bible addresses history - the early state of Israel as an example. But Genesis and the story of creation is mythology.
I thought this way before, but found the Bible is a non-fiction book. After investigating and comparing with evolution, I thought creation was true instead of evo. For example, last year, we found the chicken came before the egg. That's a fact. What parts do you think is myth?
I think the creation story and the flood are both mythical - folklore passed down verbally from generation to generation. As far as the chicken before the egg, I don't know what that is supposed to mean. Before we had birds, we had various kinds of reptiles, which were also egg layers, so I'd say the egg came before the chicken.
Here is a reference to one theory about the great flood
Black Sea deluge hypothesis - Wikipedia
The Ryan/Pitman book is very good.
Edit:
Saying the flood story is a myth is incorrect. There very likely was a large scale event with many ancient peoples displaced by flooding. Tales of that flooding are parts of a number of cultures, and the tale has been included in the Bible.
I love how you 'secular scientists' are wrong- when you could have just been more succinct and said 'scientists'.
I am not surprised that you Creato-Christian cultists refuse the science of evolution- or that the egg came first.
Finally answered! Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
Basically, many, many moons ago there was a chicken-like bird. It was genetically close to a chicken but wasn't a full-blown chicken yet. The video calls it a proto-chicken. So proto-hen laid an egg, and proto-rooster fertilized it. But when the genes from ma and pa almost-chicken fused, they combined in a new way, creating a mutation that accidentally made the baby different from its parents. Although it would take millennia for the difference to be noticed, that egg was different enough to become the official progenitor of a new species, now known as... the chicken! So in a nutshell (or an eggshell, if you like), two birds that weren't really chickens created a chicken egg, and hence, we have an answer: The egg came first, and then it hatched a chicken.
Want another example?
Which came first a baby Liger or an adult Liger?
Eyeroll. It's a FACT now that the chicken came first. You keep dodging the question, so I'm going to ignore yours. If the egg came first, then how did the protein which only the chicken can produce end up on the shell?
You know- the only fact is that you keep saying that the chicken came first.

Where did the Liger DNA come from?
