This... this is news to me. Always been taught that its from old organic matters trapped down in the earth, not as part of the Earth's natural process. Hence "finite" in numbers.
EDIT:
So if oil is part of Earth's natural process, then by the earliest of time the organic building blocks of life is already abundant on Earth. Then you get maybe a foreign interplanetary microorganism to kickstart the life process.
I guess if we can find another planet with similar geological process and find oil, we would finally recognize oil as part of that process or we declare there was once life on that planet ol
Read all the comments in this thread and watch the video someone posted, it will give you a good overview of how the Abiotic mechanism works. As to being the building blocks of life....hmmm, well maybe. I am more inclined to believe that "intelligent design" had a larger role in creating the complexity of life on Earth than it being a natural process.
Here is a reading suggestion: "Darwin's Black Box" by Michael Behe wherein he discusses the gaping holes in the Darwinian model of evolution. Or a simpler explanation comes from English astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle, who said, "The chance that higher life forms might have emerged in this way [via random natural process] is comparable to the chance that a tornado sweeping through a junkyard might assemble a Boeing 747 from the materials therein."
