Eggs and chickens don't really exist. You and I dont really exist everything is just a wild dream that we are all living. Its all just in our heads. At least thats what happened on LOST.

The incredible thought that the creator of the egg is the chicken and the egg is the creator of the chicken is the same thought with existance, God is the creator of existence and before God there was God confusing anyone? Because God cannot be understood only obeyed from him existance of anything good in general will be provided, maybe thats why people trying to do things there way are shown that everything has a process and everything has a deeper meaning love, happiness, friendship, family, life and every other subject, suddenly after much trial we see that God was the answer after all once with him everything is much easier :)
Which came first: run-on sentences or the punctuation mark? :D


As an English major, this is just really really really hard for me to read. It screams out to me, but I get what you are saying... sort of. You don't really express your ideas clearly when you write like that, at least in my own opinion (which probably doesn't matter much, so don't get upset by it!).

I have to agree with Perik here. If God had created the egg first, there would have been no mother to keep the egg warm, so it never would have hatched. Yes, one could argue that God is all powerful and could have kept the egg warm Himself, but then if He can do that, then what would be the point over creating an egg instead of a chicken? We might as well just ask, did God create Adam as a fully grown man, or did He create him as an embryo and let him grow and develop from there? Lol. Now THAT would be interesting...and a little strange.

...I think. I'm not that grand when it comes to grammar to begin with, and that was a really confusing paragraph, so I could be punctuating incorrectly.


As a sidenote: does anyone understand recursion? Because I'm thinking some sort of recursion is happening here. I'm not sure, though, because I don't quite understand recursion.

Without a chicken, there could be no egg, nor the means for it's incubation. Also, on the subject of time and space as in reference to the original post, starting there as a limit is part of our problem. God transcends time and space. He created them. See...it's hard for us to understand. Think about it...something can't come from nothing, so God has always been, and all things come from Him, but before all things, apart from God, there was nothing. We can't really understand nothing. We think of blackness, or space, or a hole, but any of these would be SOMEthing. Before God created, apart from God, there was NOthing. Just Him.
