scientists crack the chicken or the egg riddle

AMEN!!!

Everything was created spiritually first, then came the physical manifestation.

Remember folks, it's why they call it "The THEORY of evolution."

Kinda like the THEORY of Gravity? Can't see it, but it's sure there

Or wind?? Can you see that? There's too many questions about your 'PooF' it's suddenly THERE OMG IT's THERE WHERE DID THAT COME FROM? explanation.

Whereas there is plenty of proof of animals AND people evolving and the different steps they took to get where they are. The horse is a prime example of this... Eohippus to Equus... if something can go from small to big, why not the other way?
 
Well that's the question that is asked each time someone says which came first, there is no way around it.

And it need not be an argument if people know how to 'discuss'.

That's a very common misunderstanding of how the word theory is used by scientists. It is different from the "slang" way it is used by many. Also when it is used like this way, it is intended to be a put-down or a dismissal without even looking into it. A red herring of sorts. Notice that nobody says "Gravity is JUST a THEORY!". That would be silly, nobody disputes the "fact of gravity". Evolution is very very very well supported by tons of evidence across many fields- geology, chemistry, genetics, anatomy, biology, etc.

“Theory” in Science: A theory is really one of the pinnacles of science – what nearly everyone strives to make out of their hypotheses. A hypothesis is elevated to a theory when it has withstood all attempts to falsify it. Experiment after experiment has shown it sufficient to explain all observations that it encompasses. In other words, a “theory” has never been shown to be false, despite – usually – hundreds if not thousands of separate attempts to break it. It explains the observations with one or more mechanisms and, because it provides that mechanism, it is considered to be above the level of a Law. Examples these days are the Theory of Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, the Germ Theory of Disease, and yes, the Theory of Evolution.

In other words Theory as used in proper science is an idea that has a LOT of support. NOT something that anybody pulled out of thin air at a moment's notice. It is something well thought out, worked on with all the evidence for it amassed.. THEN submitted to PEER REVIEW. And stood up to most criticisms & analyses.​
