So is the lack of fresh water and workable soil a punishment? No, but God has been good.

Well, I support what ericfisher says in his comment based on science,which substantiates that the bible discribes where the garden of Eden use to be ,which was actually in the middle east..

Another question might be...where has all that water gone that used to cover the planet?
If it has evaporated and the world is still 2/3 covered with Salt water then how long will it be before that 2/3 is gone?
How quickly will the deserts grow?

Crude oil is formed from the decayed remnants of aquatic plants and animals that lived hundreds of millions of years ago. Large portions of the modern day Middle East were once submerged under a large, now non-existent sea called the Tethys Sea.
This sea eventually disappeared, sealing large deposits of organic matter under a salty crust. Over the eons, this crust was in turn covered by layer upon layer of sediment. As the sediment was compressed under the increasing weight of the layers above, it hardened into limestone. About 15 million years ago, the shifting of tectonic plates of the region formed large, underground fissures. As the organic matter migrated through the layers of limestone, much of it seeped into these fissures.
These deposits of organic matter became crude oil.

I think the "Flood" was a more localized event for Noah and his family living near the Nile River which was prone to flooding. The story of Noah and his family have been embellished and passed along like the worst example of the children's game called telephone.
Just my humble opinion.

Could we make our own oil from organic material in compost heaps using limestone plates.

Go to Cornell University. Look up the creation of oil by compression of marble at mantle pressure and temperature. Dr. Thomas Gold(Steady state theory) (friend of Carl Sagan) continued the work of others, STARTED MORE THAN 200 YEARS AGO, on an In-organic synthesis of oil and gas.
You are on the right track, but temperatures and pressures have to be greater and conditions have to be anaerobic or reducing. Compost heaps are in an oxygen rich environment.Your environment has to be sulphur and hydrogen rich(reducing)
Write down the chemical equations when you have completed your thinking.Complete your understanding by doing the thermodynamics of those equations. Good Luck!

The entire midwest in the USA was also once an inland sea and the same process also took place. There exists many oil or crude deposits in PA,IND,Ill Iowa,KY,Mo.
and southern and western states. Texas I believe was a seperate inland sea basin and Texas and Oklahome have plentiful and larger crude deposits.This happened I believe in the Coal Age because of fossil findings.

Yes, and that crude oil was in turn converted into cold hard cash by a lot of arabs.

They did more than take advantage of it they got down right stingy! If it wasn't for the way that they
got money hungry about it then I wouldn't be paying 3 dollars a gallon to buy gas.I don't care if someone takes advantage of something like this but not to where they have you castegrated by it.As far as I'm concered about it then wew should take all the oil we want and to hell with them. Yours truly w.

Blame everyone but ourselves right? Oil is a finite substance. We have wasted massive quantities of this stuff. It's stored solar energy. We better hurry up and use the stored stuff to create better technology to collect the new solar energy or Earth's pop will bottleneck.

Now oil is $4.11 per gallon. The American people love to be blackmailed and stolen from by Big Oil and the Oil Cartel. The strategic commodity is to be compared to the commodity of salt during the 15th-19th Century. Salt was used to preserve food, especially, meat. It was technological advancement in electricity, refrigerators and truck/railroad car freezers that did in salt as a controlled, contrived asset.
Now what technology will replace stupid oil in our lives?

Free electricity... once you invest in capturing it.
Unfortunately the cost of capturing what we use is very high. Storing it is not all that practical YET but we're getting there.

We could have free electricity if we could capture and store lightning. The downside might be that we end up causing weather problems or something due to an imbalance of a natural process. Who knows!

You sound like an imperialist taking whatever you want from people that own thier rights and resources. Many agree with this attitude and many Americans have died fighting oil wars. What if the Arabs wanted our acricultural resources and just took them. Wouldn't you be screaming and declare war? I believe in international trade and countries selling thier resources and goods rather than war.

That's not a parallel - you're suggesting that the arabs are taking something that's yours by right which is not true. The Iraq war was an attack largely motivated by a desire to control middle eastern politics and oil. That is an imperialist action.
You do not own middle eastern oil, those that live there do. They have to right to exploit it as they see fit.
When you say you believe in international trade it seems incongruous with your desire for others to do what you want.

When you look at the natural resources for the regions of the Mideast - they are limited. Wars have been fought for "possession" of those natural resources since ancient times. Those that were able to negotiate trades and markets, were able to provide the resources in exchange for those things that their country did not have and possibly avoid war. This is a cornerstone for international commerce even today.
Those who cannot learn from history, are condemned to repeat the mistakes made before.

You are right, of course, but the oil companies and middle easterners did make hugh profits in the last several years. They will pay the piper when/if solar, thermal energy and wind replaces oil. Personally, I think they made a big mistake by raising prices so high.
