Definitely Egg! (The answer is: The Egg—the whole egg, and nothing but the egg. The conundrum has been resolved, and our educational mission requires our attention in eliminating this fallacious phrase.)
Here;
The Only Egg-Ceptable Answer
The question is: Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Unmistakably, the egg! Given this discourse, it seems to be the only plausible, accurate, and reasonable conclusion that can be reached. Probably the more troubling question is why this debate seems to interminably continue. The overwhelming and compelling evidence from the historic, archeological, and evolutionary records is clear. Given the sheer weight of the data involved, we as educators should remove this misplaced metaphor from our collective consciousness and vocabulary. Those in positions of leadership and learning must correct those who might wish to continue this mythical paradox. As we enlighten minds and challenge assumptions, we should use the example of this misleading phrase as a rallying cry to correct inaccurate impressions and enhance our instructional precision. Henceforth, we should recognize that those who continue to support, exploit, or utilize this inaccurate and deceptive phrase to be astray of an attempt to unscramble this metaphorical mess. We should egg-spect more from our egg-steemed colleagues to no longer egg-acerbate this problem. The debate on this topic should be concluded. The answer is: The Egg—the whole egg, and nothing but the egg. The conundrum has been resolved, and our educational mission requires our attention in eliminating this fallacious phrase.
