Oh and what does a biochemist know about astrophysics..??

EDIT: To add, thats the same institution that you posted a link about the "Young Earth" theory.. Which essentially stated that the oil in the ground is between 1500-2000 years old..

This is of the same ilk as Intelligent Design.. Pseudoscience
Again your argument consists of discrediting the source so you don't have to consider the scientific evidence.

Regarding the oil article: The day after I posted it I was listening to CBC radio and they were interviewing some scientist in New Mexico who is researching the viability of taking carbon and converting it into oil by using solar heat and some other processes. He hoped one day it would be viable as a modest means for oil production with the added benefit of using up waste carbon from industry.
