What came first, the chicken or the egg?

[newhandle]

the egg: Euronome, the Goddess of All Things rose from Chaos and, as she danced, she caught the wind and created the serpent Ophion. As she danced, ever more wildly, Ophion coiled himself around her and a child was conceived. In the form of a dove she laid the Universal Egg and, on Euronome's instructions, Ophion wrapped himself seven times around the egg until the time that it cracked and opened. From the egg sprang every single thing that exists.

God made the chicken in the garden of eden.

Why?

What came first, the chicken or the egg?

This is a logical problem which indicates the existence of God Most Gracious.

There must be an initial chicken that started all this chain of eggs and chickens or else there can't be any such chain.

The implication:
If you say God created the universe.
Then one says to you: Who then created the Creator?
And you answer: another creator.
then he asks: who created this new creator.
And you answer: another creator.

And so on this will be a vicious circle: and there must be an initial Creator who started all such chain of creators; that initial Creator is God Almighty.

It should be as such or else this will be vicious circle and all such chain of creators will be impossible.

Retorting the Atheist

For a creationist the only answer is the chicken. For an athiest I could see it being either, yet the egg is winning.

Edit: And yeah, I don't subscribe to "endless loop of confusion", something had to exist outside of being created for there to be anything.
