    Going a little poll crazy again
    LOL, seems like every now and then people figure out how to do polls, then every single thread has a poll.

    Sorry, just making an observation. I'll add my own poll... what came first? the snake or the egg???? :gj:

    I went for the egg. You didn't specify what type of animal ... so I'm going to guess there was some sort of egg before the first snake.

    the egg came first. snake=reptile, there were egg laying reptiles before snakes thus egg came first.

    same with chickens....egg came first.

    in fact, eggs came about before vertebrates were even around. the inverts always win!!

    The egg had to come first, because however evolution did it that mutation that made the snake have no legs that snake had to come out of an egg. sorry if thats confusing. haha.

    lets set aside evolution....fossil records show that inverts were around well before any vertebrates....many, many inverts lay eggs.....the egg was first.

    Yes many inverts lay eggs but, the way the op worded his question sounded like he was asking if the snake or snake egg came first. My belief is the snake was created first so the snake egg came second. Just depends on what egg you're talking about but, I still believe whatever egg is in question that the critter came first, whatever that may be!

    well snakes couldn't have been "created first" because fossil records show amphibians came first and they lay eggs.

    it is also well believed that lizards, an egg laying reptile, came before snakes which is supported by fossil records.

    he also said "the" snake or "the" egg and not snakes or snake eggs. "the" egg means any egg as "in the egg is a product of reproduction". no where in that phase is an animal specified.

    i will give you this. the snake egg is the first of its kind. i can't rember off hand of why. it is in a general snake book i have at the house. but this is not what was asked.

    To me, it doesn't matter what the "fossil records" say, I believe that everything in this universe was "created" by God. Now in the Bible, the Lord did create different things and animals in the world at different times so who knows, maybe these lizards and amphibians were created before He created the snakes, maybe not. Either way, I beleive it was all by His hand and His time in doing so and that the creatures were created first. Then they reproduced by giving birth or laying eggs. Just like when He created man and women, not child or infant. These are my beliefs on the subject and what I know to be true.

    No where did I say this is what he said, I said by the way the question seemed it sounded like that's what he was asking. So if the snakes were created first (like in my belief) the snake eggs came second. He did not state what kind of egg he was refering to so I don't know. If he was meaning some other sort of egg, then maybe so. It still comes down to my belief in creation, if the Lord created one of these other creatures first and it was an egg laying creature and produced before the snakes were created then yes, those eggs came first. I don't believe in evolution whatsoever, so I don't believe these things come from that or this or vice versa. My belief is that everyone of the creatures on earth were created by the Lord. I do believe there can be mutations and genetic changes within species due to various reasons but nowhere can anybody show that one mutation or genetic change led to the evolution of another seperate creature. Nowhere. As stated, these are my beliefs of creation and the wonderful world we live in.

    I picked a snake because i figured it was a freak thing when the first lizard was probably born with no legs to become the first snake.. Who knows lol
