Noticed an article today that stated there is a serious published study suggesting oil is not a fossil fuel.
Page not found - WND
I was going to put this into Coffee house, but maybe it is more a science topic.

Re: Sometimes used as a "Young Earth" argument
I am not taking a specific stand. I do admit since I was a young child, I thought for some reason the story of oil formation struck me as somehow incorrect. I was raised in a more secular perspective by the way.....so it wasn't a thought from religion, and so I am probably more open to exploring whether I had a correct intuition.
Tangenitally as evidence on how perhaps something related to evo theory could mislead science, this could have merit, but honestly, I am not thinking in terms of the evo debate on this one.
I can't provide in-depth material either. I was hoping by posting this someone else could.
Can't we post this as a topic for discussion somewhere so someone that may know about this theory and the evidence can comment?

Re: Sometimes used as a "Young Earth" argument
In general, take it easy on the new topics. You've had quite a few since your comeback.
I'll take your advice and cool out after tonight some, but I was away for awhile and not debating this quite as much.....sort of built up some ideas in that time.

Hydrocarbons
Didn't it just come out in the news that there were a ton of hydrocarbons on Saturn or something like that?
How could hydrocarbons be organic if they exist on other planets that don't seem to have life?
