Petroleum is of inorganic origin, the organic theory of the origin of petroleum was only formulated to make us believe that petroleum is scarce.

Saturn's moon Titan is full of hydrocarbons, hydrocarbon seas and I believe that there were no dinosaurs there.

Dmitri Mendeleyev, creator of the periodic table, was the first or one of the first to formulate the inorganic theory of petroleum, the rest is history of manipulation.

Yeah you can put the “dinosaur juice” into the urban myth category. Algae on the other hand..

The presence of organic remains does not mean that it is of organic origin.

But it also does not mean it’s not. Crude oil produced from new algae is identical to the one we pump up, just cleaner.

I recommend you to read the studies on the inorganic origin of petroleum, in fact the theory is more alive than ever, you are only studying one side of the story.

Fair enough. But you said “accept the evidence”; this is a hypothesis like everything else so no real evidence.

Yeah, I was under the impression that fossil fuels like petroleum came from organic life. How is it created then?
