    I assume you mean petroleum oil rather than olive oil?

    It's a hydrocarbon fuel found in the ground often referred to as a fossil fuel. Some probably is formed from remains of organic material buried in Noah's flood and this would indeed be fossil fuel. There is some evidence that oil can also be formed by bacteria acting on substances of non-organic origin.

    Whatever its source there are clear signs that we are using it at a much faster rate than it is being produced and we have already passed peak oil.

    @Truthseeker, same references, LOL.

    The flood a world wide event with plenty of evidence if you just looked and stopped swallowing the man made myths like evolution.

    The same as what the evolutionists think it is. What's your point? The flood of noah is sufficient to account for the oil found in earth.
