"You can't argue with religious zealots who believe in infinite oil."

If we listen to Wharfy we'd stop looking for oil because it is all gone proof to the contrary. If we listen to Wharfy we'd stop chopping wood for the stove and freeze to death in the dark.

It's not about belief it's about hope and the free will not to listen to doomsayers.

If those religious zealots had listened to me when I said in 5/05 we were within a few years of peak, when oil was at $45, they might have made some money.

I just had a hunch the flat earth didn't have an oil filled center.

How stupid it is to suggest that those speak to the untapped oil reserves and current shortage of refining capacity as religious zealots who believe in infinite oil. But one expects such fools to be in denial that they themselves are the myth mongers.

Is there enough oil for several decades and will the technology of those several decades make oil or some form of hydrocarbon in reality a form of infinite oil???

I see and understand more and more every day of how little I know. And that means I see the stupidity of those who say gloom and doom and the oil will run out as more and more stupid with less and less doubt.
