Coal is mostly the result of ancient land plants, and oil is primarily the result of ancient ocean plants. (Life is carbon based, and these materials are carbon based.) If you think the world is only 6,000 years old, then no wonder you think we can't run out of this stuff; it must get formed rather quickly. But funny, I don't think we've ever seen any new coal or oil formed in our lifetime, nor the lifetimes of any relative we've ever known about.

even if oil/caol can be formed, we have to find a new way to use energy because this enery is not efficient neither is it efficiently used...(i.e. hummers-16 gallons=160 miles mpg-10) we need to find a souce of energy that can keep cars running and stop contributing to the pollution and green house gases in the air..if not then we lose the 7 heavens that god made to protect us and we will melt the ice caps and get fried!!!!

Maybe we need to bury some forests quickly, so that we have more fossil fuels in the next few generations?

They say....that the flood caused tremendous pressure on the earth and that is what made the oil & coal....Or....that god put them here for our use. Love the excuses?

No, that coal and oil was placed there by god, to be used by the United States, because we are a christian nation.

In a lab they can produce oil in a few hours from organic substances. So why do you say it has to take millions of years. Maybe it only takes a few hundred or a few thousand.

Furthermore--when radiocarbondated there is no C-14 at all in these materials.
