What came first? The chicken or the egg?

An age old question that has been lost in the realms of obscurity. Forgotten. Ridiculed. Unsolved.

Ever since the seed of logic was planted into our brains, the essence of this inquiry has grown into a beautiful, but twisted garden of beliefs and truth. Are we cursed to forever repeat history until we find an answer? We reset trends, music, and movies and through the books we create, we even rewrite history. We have come so far only to forget where we come from; a soldier on the battlefield trying to recall his mission.

“If one doesn’t learn from his mistakes, he is destined for tragedy.”

I do believe we are the jailers of our own imprisonment, holding the key to our future in our past. The answer lies within us. It lies within our minds, our DNA, and our souls. Bits and pieces scattered about through all of humanity.

So, I was wondering, what are some of your thoughts on where we come from, where we are headed and why?

That’s a long question, but the best answers are usually simple. Feel free to lay down your thoughts relentlessly.

Someone put the chick inside the shell then hatched it, the chick came in first.

Well, as a theatre historian, I can tell you that tragedy in its strictest sense has very little to do with learning from your mistakes.
As for the larger, metaphysical question... I'm just a historian.

I'm sure that the answers to your questions will come when one dies. And as for the chicken and they egg....it doesn't matter to me...they both taste good.

I do believe some unexplainable phenonmenon was incorporated in the existence of human beings. Not the Lord. Science--yes. But I believe the human race has died multiple times and has restructured itself multiple times.
