I think the idea that coal and oil formed gradually is without any support whatsoever ... Totally implausible to me. I think it is much more likely that it was all formed in a single catastrophe ... The Global Flood.

Yes, it's much more likely that many square miles of swamp were lifted by flood waters in one continuous 6-inch thick piece and deposited somewhere else...
...followed by a 3-inch thick slab of marsh bottom, again several square miles in surface area...
...followed by many paper-thin layers of sandstone lifted in one intact piece, one after another...
And so on and so forth, repeated dozens of times...
...With curious breeds of flood-diving animals furiously scooting to the bottom to leave their tracks in each layer as it get delivered.
For once, I agree with you heathens. The global flood didn't make all the oil since oil is constantly being renewed by the core of the earth.
That's how God intended us to get fuel for the last days - oil from the core of the earth. It doesn't matter if we are using it faster than the core makes it though, because we have just enough to last us until end times.
I know you types will demand "evidence" but all I can say is that its just common since.
How was coal and oil formed? The Flood.
How were diamonds formed? They were crushed during the Flood.
Where did dinosaurs go? Drowned in the Flood.
How did Chuck Norris become the man he is today? He survived the Flood without the benefit of an ark.
How long has "afdave" been sticking his head in the proverbial sand against scientific evidence? Since the Flood.
(Apologies to the victims of Hurricane Katrina beforehand)
So by your understanding, there must be a massive oil depository under New Orleans right now.
@BCD: Your hair brained ideas of geology are quite amusing.
So the recipe for oil (and coal since they are apparently the same thing) is:
1) Huge amounts of water
2) living tissue (or well, previously living)
Following this, the ocean floors are a rich mixture of coal and oil...?
Praise oil, hallelujah!
*puke*
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
