What if 1 = -1

So, oil is created by animal remains that are subjected to sedimentary processes, and then brought to a simmer by metamorphic processes, correct -- or close enough?

How exactly does this fit into modern science? How was the arctic so livable millions of years ago?

Is evolution wrong? Is global warming wrong? Is Earth crust displacement true?

Or is the arctic just a massive sea animal graveyard where everything goes to die? Even so, wouldn't the crustaceans just eat everything eventually? The bones would simply be eroded into sediments before they could be subjected to such heat and pressure as to form oil.

Unless the idea is that they melt out of the sediments and pool, but, if that were the case, then why wouldn't the liquified bones, etc, simply continue heating until they were broken down entirely and their molecules scattered?

How does oil in the arctic make any sense?

Causation can be derived from a controlled experiment.

Hey sci, I'm starting to get into the natural sciences, like zoology and botany. Can you recommend any good introductory books to these subjects?

I think it goes a whole lot deeper than intelligence if you're comparing men and women. A lot of what it boils down to is temperment and personality differences between the sexes. Do you know why you tend to see men accomplishing more in society? It's because men are far more likely to become OBSESSED with things. After a certain intelligence level, your IQ does really do much more for you. What really separates successful scientists or performers, or artists is their willingness to become so immersed in something and devote so much time doing it that they attain a level of mastery far outside of the norm. How many women do you know with that type of personality? Probably not many. The general rule seems to be that women are more interested in people, men are more interested in things. I guarantee this has a lot to do with it.
