Which came first: The chicken, or the egg?

I say the egg, because it's hens that lay eggs, not chickens.

If you believe in evolution, then the egg came first. Why? because an animal reproduced and when it did it mutated, this mutation was passed on and slowly the species evolved into the proto-chicken which then laid the egg which would become the chicken egg.
If you believe in creationism, then the chicken came first. Because God created it to lay eggs.
If you believe in both, then God created everything, but has been guiding it through evolution, so the egg technically came first.
(And just as a side note, DM, chicken refers to the species, not the gender. Of course the rooster isn't going to be laying the eggs... )

But inorder for there to be a circle there had to be an incident that would kick it off... Ex- When drawing a circle there is always a point where the pen/pencil hits the page, thus the starting point.

Is a starting point the same thing as a begining?

A circle has no starting point, it is only a circle.

I agree with VZ.
I could not have said that better.
A beginning is the same as a starting point, because it indicates a point in time where something was started..
A circle just doesn't come from nowhere.. the point has to be placed on the paper, and the drawing has to have commenced, in order for the circle to be drawn.
