[[Geologists]] have deduced that petroleum is the remains of huge amounts of algal material that was laid down millions of years ago, and altered in form under high temperatures and pressures. Layers of buried plant material tend to produce [[coal]] or lignite.  

 

Secular [[geologists]] have contended that petroleum is the remains of huge amounts of [[alga]]l material that was laid down millions of years ago, and altered in form under high temperatures and pressures. Layers of buried plant material tend to produce [[coal]] or [[lignite]].

 

 

 

This gives support to the creationary view.  If this research is supported it would refute the idea that fossil fuels are diminishing.{{fact}}
