Remember when we hated Neil deGrasse Tyson because he told us that Pluto was not a planet. It is. Well, now, he found a way for us to stop asking what came first, the chicken of the egg.
He says the answer is pretty simple; the egg came first. That is because another type of bird laid it. If it is a combination of two animals, then that does that mean it came from woman, who is referred to as Chick, and a hen. Get it, chick + hen = chicken.
If another bird gave birth to the chicken, then what came first that bird or the egg? Let’s keep going back until there was neither a bird nor an egg. Adam gave a rib for Eve, what did Eve give for the bird? Oh, an egg! Wait, does that mean I answered my question? Eve was not only the mother to Cain and Able, but she was also the mother to all the other creatures. My head hurts. They didn’t teach that to me when I was a religious studies major.
Back to deGrasse Tyson, now, that he solved that original riddle, to his satisfying, will he tell us why the chicken really crossed the road. I bet it was to get away from whatever birthed it.
BTW Can you believe that deGrasse Tyson and I went to the same junior high school and probably had some of the same teachers? Obviously one of us learned things, and the other one graduated because the teachers did not want to have her in their class again.
