Would not tons of vegetation being buried under mud and rocks produce oil?

No, not even over millions of years, certainly not a few thousand. Further, you have figured out how to make oil out of lettuce? More BS.

Of course, my argument assumes that it doesn't take millions of years to form oil.

If I bring you a cabbage would you turn it in to oil for me? I need it tomorrow as my Maxima is about a half quart low.

I feel as if I am discussing ceiling fans with my dog. He doesn't understand either. Why didn't God make him smarter?? Why don't deer shoot back?? Why do fish still bite crank baits??

It is because they evolved into either tools or food.


Stay safe; stay armed.

Tell me then, where does oil come from? If you say decaying vegetation, then to be consistent, your own answer is also BS.

You're beating a straw man. I never said that I could make oil out of cabbage by tomorrow. I only implied that the decay of plant material into oil need not take millions of years.

No, they didn't EVOLVE! They aren't meant to do anything other than what God created them to do.
