The mystery of where the oil came from

However, archaeological findings do not support such an event. Scientists believe the age of dinosaurs began with an asteroid impact 250 million years ago, and ended with an asteroid impact 65 million years ago. From the Cambrian to the Cretaceous, only six mass extinctions have been identified, and the two most significant of these are surface extinctions caused by asteroid impacts. But we know that on the surface of the earth dinosaurs would just rot away, not produce oil.

Assuming mass extinctions and deep burials, it would require the movement of plates to suddenly bury animals like "kneading dough". The slow movement of the Earth's crust will only cause the body to rot and eventually become fossilized bones, while earthquakes and volcanoes can only cause local disasters. However, current geological findings suggest that the plates are stable after the existence of life, and there are no sudden global movements, but only slow crustal movements. When was there such a force? It's hard to explain at the moment.

From various analyses of the causes of oil, the traditional theory that oil is evolved from the decay of animals has been questioned, and we can not help thinking about the origin of life again.

The above evidence and findings are almost a great impact on his "common sense" that we do not doubt. Since scientific common sense is questionable, how far is the "truth of the universe" that humans have always thought they knew from the real truth of the universe?

In fact, the logical basis of science now belongs to "induction". In other words, through continuous observation, a large number of observations are gathered, and then the establishment of the theory is carried out. Once a theory has been established, it must be proved by more rigorous experiments, and when an unexplainable example is found, the theory is broken, and a new hypothesis must be returned. To become a law is more rigorous, after a long time of research to confirm that the theory does not ask questions, after more careful verification, at this time must be very rigorous in logic, enough to explain most of the relevant cases, in order to become a law. Similarly, if there is a counterexample or a flaw in logic, it must also go back to the stage of doctrine and re-examine it.
