Philosophical Jokes

Which came first the chicken or the egg.

Not sure but the one smoking the cigarette would be my guess.

Kierkegaard was a great Dane.

For the [chicken] answer, it would be the christian and for the [egg] answer it would be the evolutionist. As for the evolutionist who is a christian, it might depend on the transcendent properties in his cigarette. #-o

Lol mags. :smiley:

The egg came first, the chicken was but a proto chicken in all cases until it became classified as a chicken by an arbitrary construct called species, one can be sure though that the closest to a chicken there ever was laid an egg and that egg was a chicken, the first in the terms we define a chicken as, but it was laid by something not a chicken who laid an egg that was… hence the egg came first the chicken was a result of an egg that was not laid by a chicken. Mind you that totally misses the point of the question which is supposed to ask a question that cannot be answered by logic, sadly though I think evolution doesn’t care about questions which are not supposed to be answered. Nor does basic common sense care if you don’t get how eggs is eggs. :wink:

There’s often a way of answering questions like: what is the sound of one hand clapping that are definitively answered, but I think we should just delight really in the semantics of clapping rather than claim that it can be answered. :slight_smile:

What’s the problem?

The egg came first. No one ever said anything about a chicken egg, and fossil records show that fish was there before the chicken, laying eggs zing

The lay came before the egg.

Most of the eggs we eat everyday have not involved any sex.

Some eggs come to be without any laying.
For early animals it was that boring!

Actually, I think you answered that quite logically, even including the fact that the chicken was not the first to ever have been hatched from an egg. Which raises the question: what was the first hatchling to ever come about? A dinosaur? Did snakes come before the dinosaur? :laughing:

Nah snakes were later, it was lizards at first, terrible/powerful lizards/reptiles literally the meaning of dino saur, and then they lost their legs some claim it was due to the act of the serpent in Eden, others claim it was due to legs being unfavourable in the environment a lizard existed, because of many various reasons, much of which are to do with being preyed upon amongst other issues such as preying upon others. :slight_smile:

Snakes were late Cretaceous I think.
But there were amphibians long before Dinosaurs, and Fish long before them. But you have to go back much further to get back to early eggs: Arthropoda, annelids… way way way back (screen goes fuzzy ala Waynes World didl a didy la diddy la…

Overheard on the Underground:
“Knock, knock.”
“Who’s there?”
“What do the following have in common:
A: The studio in The Truman Show
B: The Great Wall of China
C: The Red Line in Syria.”

“What do the following have in common:
A: The studio in The Truman Show
B: The Great Wall of China
C: The Red Line in Syria, who?”

“It’s not a knock knock joke. It’s a question: What do they have in common?”

“No idea.”

“You can see them from the Moon.”

“Don’t get it. Anyway, apparently, you can’t even see the great wall of China from the Moon. And The Truman Show isn’t even real. And I don’t get the bit about the red line.”

“It’s wide.”

“Still don’t get it. Not funny. Don’t know why you said, ‘knock, knock’.”

“It was a philosophical joke.”

A scientist and a philosopher were being chased by a hungry lion. The scientist made some quick calculations, he said “its no good trying to outrun it, its catching up”. The philosopher kept a little ahead and replied " I am not trying to outrun the lion, I am trying to out run you"!
