"Who came first the Chicken or the egg?" Perhaps the first chicken egg was laid by a "proto-chicken" which for some reason laid a mutated egg. This egg then hatched into the first chicken. Which came first, the chicken or the egg? I vote for the egg as the first. But what about the first rooster? If the first rooster came before the first chicken then perhaps it could mate with proto-chicken. Now if the gene(s) for chickenness was(were) dominant then eggs fertilized by the first rooster would become chickens. In order for the first chicken and rooster to be able to survive the chicken and/or the rooster would have to kill off the proto-roosters. Extended to FADG this suggests that civilizations fight to destroy each other. But then again I don't believe that the problems of the ME and Venezuela are ones of civilizations but of power and oil. That is which rooster rules the roost and controls the food chain. As far as changing the structure and the culture of feudal religious systems, one must remember that it took 900 years or so to change the European system from a feudal to a democratic system(1100-1900).
