I don't know why so many people can't answer this question!!! It's just bloody obvious!
It's the egg. Here's my idea:
1. You have a form of bird that has the genes of the Chicken's predecessors, but it's not quite chicken yet.
2. Over time as this breed of bird reproduces, it's genetic code changes, gradually coming close to that of a modern day chicken.
3. Eventually we have a bird that genetically can be described as being 99.999999999999% chicken.
4. The bird lays an egg, and out pops a bird that can now be scientifically described as a chicken.

Any arguments?

Then why did Paul still told the Philippian saved believers to work out their own salvation with fear and trembling? (Phil. 2:12)

And why did the Lord say that he who believes and is baptized shall be saved (Mark 16:16). Does that mean baptism is a requirement for eternal salvation?

And also say that whoever wants to save his soul-life shall lose it; but whoever loses his soul-life for His sake shall find it (Matt. 16:25). Is losing one’s soul-life a requirement for eternal salvation?

Would taking the criminal element out of the drug trade and sex trade improve society? Is it realistic to think that drugs and prostitution can be stopped?

I could not reconise Jesus when I first saw him. I was suprised that he is not that tall. I am about 5ft 6 and he was about my height or a little bit taller. He also did not appear to have much of a beard at all, as he has got a very smooth face and is young looking. My mother said he was not that tall as well. The adverage height for a Jew back 2000 years ago was between 5ft 1-5ft5., and that was based on archiological (however you spell it) evidence.His eyes were pearcing, and he has a 7 foot tall angel standing beside him. So Christians if you have seen him what did he look like to you. A lot of people of have spoken to says he is about my height.

In spite of all the excuses that the War on terrorism is not a war on Islam, the Quran remains the target of criticism and Quran is Islam.

We must admit that the "terrorists" are a distinct breed that the World has never seen before and the Warlords are unable to defeat this plague with all their mighty bombs and guns.

There is no doubt that everyone is convinced that terrorists get their inspiration from the Quran.

The sleepers in the cave of the Quran are the only comparison with todays terrorists only that they were put to sleep by Allah, but the sleep of the terrorists appear to be the exchange to Paradise.

Is not the War on Terrorism a War that is waged within the circle of the Sciptures that mention the Messiah, with those who say he was crucified and will come again, and those who say he was not crucified, and those who say their real Messiah is still to come?

My family and I are going through alot. We have alot of people trying to hurt us and some of them even took cheap shots towards my deceased father. They even tried to ruin my father's life work. On top of that my mom has a lot of health problems. Mom was hospitalized and during that time, the house got robbed and vandalized. Police are investigating and yet all the neighboors claimed they saw nothing. Funny, cause there was over 200 people at my parents house and they apperently saw nothing.

If i ask god to send his angels to help us through all of this and help us catch the people who did this mom. Will god really send his angels to help us?

My Swedish boyfriend and I plan to visit my boyfriend's family in Malmoe next summer. I'm an Asian and I have no clue about the family values of the Swedes. I asked my BF about it but he just told me to be who I am....which is not that helpful. I'm thinking about buying them gifts and dressing up neatly when I meet them. Will that please them? And how shall I act around them. I know Asian parents like timid and neat in-law. But what do the Swedes like? Any advice...please please please?

Why do so many people get upset about Jesus cursing the fig tree? Jesus was teaching a life lesson when he cursed the tree.

He healed the sick, raised the dead, cast out demons, not to mention that nice little deed he did on the cross and he’s remembered as being a big monster for cursing a fig tree?

I don’t get it. Please explain.

I have been learning duetch but it turned out to be too hard 4 me.... The following passages is my final exam, could anybody help me translate them into German? Thanx so very much!!! Mabuhay! Sabaidee! Sawadika! xiexie! Zhaxidelei! And happy New year to everybody!

Since my third year in the university, I have been learning German and I am still learning it. It is interesting to learn German although it is very difficult.
Learning German is different from learning English. English is much easier in terms of pronunciation and grammar and we have been learning it for many years. But German is different. German words are usually longer and it is much more difficult in terms of grammar. Luckily, we have a very nice teacher and good environment to learn it. And we are making a lot of progress.
I like learning German and I hope I will have more chances to learn it in the future.

im a freshman in college and i shop alone. for me, i like doing this because i can do whatever i want on my own time. i find it relaxing and i can really focus on myself during this time. however, my friends think its shocking that i shop alone and very strange. recently, i shopped with a friend. we went to several stores, i was ready to be out in 10 minutes but we ended up spending over an hour in each store because of her. when i bumped into a guy friend in the mall who i had not seen for several months he asked me "where are your friends?" . i dont understand why it is so hard for people to accept the fact that i dont need people with me to go shopping. what do you guys think if u see a college chick shopping alone in a mall (clothes/ grocery shopping)?
