I don't believe that the oil industry is evil. It's like any other industry. Their are honest people and dishonest people. The bible tells us that the greed for money is the root of all evil. It's that greed for money that makes people do dishonest things. It's not limited to the oil industry. As for global warming, that is more political science than it is geological science.
