Chicken lays mystery Allah egg
ALMATY (Reuters) – A chicken in a Kazakh village has laid an egg with the word “Allah” inscribed on its shell, state media reported Thursday.
“Our mosque confirmed that it says ‘Allah’ in Arabic,” Bites Amantayeva, a farmer from the village of Stepnoi in eastern Kazakhstan, told state news agency Kazinform.
“We’ll keep this egg and we don’t think it’ll go bad.”
The news agency said the egg was laid just after a powerful hail storm hit the village.
Kazakhstan is a large, thinly populated Central Asian state where Sunni Islam is a dominant religio
Tell you what, Bites-Bites Baby… Let’s test your hypothesis. Leave that egg on a windowsill for two months and then I will pay you $100 to eat it.
[The funny part is that the Allah egg shown here is from a different time Allah's name appeared on an egg. Seems to happen all the time.]

I added this to my “Culinary Iconography” features list earlier this morning. Allah sure has a funny way of showing himself once again…this time coming out of a chicken’s butt!

Chance
Forgery
Miracle
I wonder if any *reputable* organization will validate this as a miracle? Bueller, Bueller, … anyone anyone … Bueller…..
Didn’t think so.

“We’ll keep this egg and we don’t think it’ll go bad.”
I recall the time when the Virgin Mary appeared on a piece of ‘cheese on toast’ I think we can sum up all these religious food miracles up in one word: disillusion. Why would Allah herald a message to humanity on an egg?

I’m still trying to get over a chicken farmer named “Bites”! Perhaps this is what we need to dilute these stories of fantastical apparitions once and for all.
As for the egg, wasn’t it DDT that made birds lay soft shelled eggs? This sounds more like pollution than gawd.

Hello, Muslim children! Can *you* say pareidolia?

Reminds me of an old account of a lady who’s chicken laid eggs with “warnings of the impending appocalypse” on them. It gathered quite a crowd, and six or seven were laid before they caught her in her barn forcibly shoving another egg (hard-boiled so as not to break) up the chicken’s rear end for it to “lay” the next day.
I think it was in one of my Bathroom Reader trivia books, I’ll try and find the exact story for you all later.

Taylor – It’s so bizarre what some people do! I feel bad for the molested chicken. Poor creature!

Check out this site when you have a chance. These loonies see Allah in EVERYTHING.
Make sure you look through the first few pages . . .they say even the shape of our hand spells Allah…then there is allah on a goat, allah in a cloud and MORE. We are stuck on this planet with a bunch of nutcases.

Okay, I’m back with more.
First off, anybody remember the Nike shoes that had “Air” written on the back in lettering similar to flames? That got shot down because the flames looked too much like the word “Allah”, too. They see that EVERYWHERE. Can’t be healthy…

Can’t find any online transcriptions of the CHICKEN OF THE APOCALYPSE story. Man, you can’t even say CHICKEN OF THE APOCALYPSE without expecting a dramatic drumroll…
Anyway, I’ll keep looking, maybe eventually it’ll pop up.

Here’s an orange along similar lines… I think it is some deity trying to tell us something about religious zealots.

[Ed Note: The Crazy Chicken Lady still haunts us. I let this one through because -- well, how often does she get to witness through her particular idiom, the barnyard chicken cluck? Don't worry. She's still banned.]
I just happen to be a *reputable* semi-expert in this very area.
Chance?
I have seen many eggs like this one. It’s rare but, not that unusual. I think it is fun to find eggs like this, but I have never seen the name of Allah on one.
Forgery?
It can’t be a forgery. I don’t know if it really says Allah but it is just wrinkles in a chicken’s egg. I believe that it came out of a chicken’s butt. When she said it would not rot, that didn’t sound like this person would really eat it….or ever crack it open. In that case…the egg might not rot but just dry out in the inside….either way I wouldn’t try to eat it.
Miracle?
It depends on what you mean by a miracle. We can look at the whole of Creation as a Miracle. I do. I don’t think that man can make something as perfect as the egg shell. It comes back to the age old question. Which came first? The chicken or the egg?
I say chicken. In my semi-expert opinion.

Did someone edit chicken lady’s comment or is that really what she wrote?
14 July 2006, on 10:45 am
Star,
Believe it or not, that’s exactly what she wrote… she is fricken insane.

Marcus – This time what she wrote just fit in so well with the
allah egg thing that I thought someone HAD to spoof up her comment.
It’s funny she is still a loyal lurker after all this time (but kind of
creepy too, though).

Stardust,
“It’s funny she is still a loyal lurker after all this time (but kind of

I would put good money on odds that logs would show her IP hits this site at least three times per day.

Marcus, we atheists are so damn intriguing, aren’t we?
(And damn funny, as well!)
14 July 2006, on 2:26 pm
I let the comment from Crazy Chicken lady through, and it is exactly what she wrote.
14 July 2006, on 10:50 pm
So, is she saying gawd is chicken butt?
WOW.Y’know what? Chicken butt. Fuckin’ rich!
