Comment: Because government regulations make no sense
Because government regulations make no sense
The term "organic" is awesome for government authorities because it is poorly understood and ambiguous. It lets them just arbitrarily regulate whatever they want.
But you are confusing two definitions of "organic." The most scientifically accurate definition of an "organic" molecule is a molecule that contains carbon. The term organic in agriculture has come to mean pesticides. This is a misnomer, however, as there really is no universal definition of what is a pesticide (or what even is a pest). This ambiguity allows the government to pick and choose what it is labels as a pesticide and as an organic substance.
But I think the fossil fuel theory is pretty solid. Young Earth Creationists are fighting the fossil fuel theory with rampant propaganda (that sometimes appears on the DailyPaul) but I have never read any scientific opinion that has given me reason to doubt the fossil fuel theory. The mars rovers have not detected any carbon (organic molecules) that I am aware of. That would be shattering news. That would be a step below finding life.
