Does God love the oil companies?
According to a breakdown of the cost of a gallon of gas aired by the networks last week, there is no profit being made. They showed the cost of crude oil, taxes, processing and transportation adding up to 100% of the cost of gasoline. Oil companies are posting record profits. Since they don't come from fuel sales, is God paying them? Or are they, the government and the networks lying?

I saw the same thing.. it is interesting that 75% of the cost of a gallon of fuel is represented by taxes and tarrifs. Besides being well diversified... oil companies concider profit, money left over after everything and everyone has been paid, including themselves.
That is how I understood it.
Peace.

Firstly, God has nothing to do with any of it.
Secondly, of course the oil companies are making a profit, the media is quite obviously wrong in their reporting if what you say is true. You should post a link.

That's because the oil companies make most of their money selling OIL not GAS. Obviously, the $125+ a barrel they are getting more than covers their costs of land acquisition, drilling, pumping and shipping oil.

I don't know but I do thank God that the global warming hoax has finally gone away. We don't hear much about that any longer. I knew the chicken littles would find a new fad to fret over.

Yes, yes, God loves American and Israeli oil companies!
Remember, Bush senior prayed to oil god prior to 1991 invasion of Iraq and Junior said, "God told me to attack Iraq in 2003"?

God is not doing anything, satan is the one sitting back and laughing because everything is screwed up the way he wants it to be.
