Or, is it a natural resource. Like coal
diamonds, and stuff. Cause if it isnt
a natural resource, and it did come
from Dinosaurs......then God DID
make them for a particular reason!

Oil is a "fossil fuel". It is created from decomposing plant and animal matter through heat, pressure and time. It is constantly being made, but takes millions of years to go from living matter to peat bog to oil field. We are currently using existing oil supplies far faster than nature can replenish.

Where Did Oil Come From

Even if dinosaurs decomposing did have something to do with oil being produced, it could only have been a small percentage of the total.
It is produced naturally. We likely do use it faster than it replenishes.

There was a dinasaur in front of a gas station I filled up at last summer! No, seriously, there is no proof that it comes from dinasaurs. More likely, it came from ancient swamps and the peat material breaking down and converting into crude-oil.

No, oil is a naturally occuring mineral product of the earth - constantly being generated - if we weren't pumping it, it would be oozing out anyway - actually is, in many places. Of course, that's how it was discovered.
This is another of the great economic scams of the ages.

I think oil comes from dead plants being crushed under rocks and dirt millions and millions years ago

Did you ask because you heard the words "fossil fuel"? Well, the word fossil means it is the remains or impression of a prehistoric plant or animal embedded in rock and preserved in petrified form, and fossil fuel is a natural fuel such as coal or gas, formed in the geological past from the remains of living organisms. I hope this answered your question.

oil is decomposed matter from a long time ago. i highly doubt that dinosour sweat has to do with anything.
