Uh, I don’t think that is the case.


Well, you probably know a lot more about it than i do, but mainly i was referring to the idea that oil came from dead dinosaurs which i think is ridicules, the idea of coal coming from wood is a little easier for me to believe.

how ever, What is the sun burning on? and what was saturn burning on before it started cooling off,

I have a lot of respect for the here and now scientists but i am Leary of the ones who think they can see in the past for millions of years by doing thousands of tests , each test depending on every other test, one test being wrong every thing is wrong.

At any rate i will not argue about the coal, because i do not know how deep they find coal, or anything else about it for that matter, but i will stick to my guns about my belief of oil not being a fossil fuel.

The Sun is fueled by hydrogen in a process called nuclear fusion.

As to dinosaurs and petroleum, I have to laugh. There was an ad for gasoline on TV long, long ago that featured a dinosaur’s head and long neck popping out of a gas tank, and roaring. Petroleum formed long before dinosaurs existed and furthermore, there is no evidence dinosaurs roar!

There is an ongoing debate among geologists whether petroleum is still forming deep underground. I know for certain that coal is not: it only appears in geologic strata known to have formed during the Carbonaceous period and nowhere else.
