Do creationists believe in Pangea?

Answer 1

Creationists dont follow scientifically evidence.

CREATionists follow CREATive minds!

Answer 2

I'm assuming not, creationists believe that the world and life as it is now is how it was created. Creationists also tend to believe that the world is comparably new. Pangea would predate the creation of earth and life.

Even if they do, it is kinda silly to believe once science and completely ignore another.

You could probably however find some creationists that believe in the theory of Pangea. Not every one believes the exact same.

Answer 3

Several times I have heard that is why humans (descended form Adam and Eve) are on all continents (even though even the earliest humans came along long after Pangea broke apart) and also that happened after the flood - so that's how there are animals in Australia. And that would have happened in the last 4-6000 years. At that rate California should be a stones throw from Asia by now.

Answer 4

Considering that Pangea would have existed long before 4000 BC, when they (the young earth creationists) think the world was created, it's not likely they do.

Old earth creationists may be willing to yield on plate tectonics, since they are more likely to focus only on biology, not astrophysics.

Answer 5

confident we do have self belief in Pangea as a working hypothesis, although of direction we weren't there to video reveal it so that is not a actuality. Creationist Antonio Snider, the 1st individual to positioned up on continental waft proposed that the continents separated in the time of the Flood. at present his unique thought is backed by potential of modern-day-day laptop modelling.

Answer 6

I do believe that a supercontinent existed before the flood, I also believe it ceased to be at that time as the earth was changed greatly during it. Read the Noah flood story and the upheaval is consistent with earthquake. I am a young earth creationist.

Answer 7

Yes we believe it was one land mass before the flood of Noah.

Here is a link to the following article (I took only the introduction since it shows yes we do believe)
http://answersingenesis.org/Home/Area/AnswersBook/continental11.asp
Before the 1960s, most geologists were adamant that the continents were stationary. A handful promoted the notion that the continents had moved (continental drift), but they were accused by the majority of indulging in pseudo-scientific fantasy. Today, that opinion has reversed—plate tectonics, incorporating continental drift, is the ruling theory. (Interestingly, it was a creationist, Antonio Snider, who in 1859 first proposed horizontal movement of continents catastrophically during the Genesis flood.1 The statements in Genesis 1:9-10 about the gathering together of the seas in one place, which implies there was one landmass, influenced his thinking.)

Geologists put forward several lines of evidence that the continents were once joined together and have moved apart, including:

The fit of the continents (taking into account the continental shelves).

Correlation of fossil types across ocean basins.

A zebra-striped pattern of magnetic reversals parallel to mid-ocean floor rifts, in the volcanic rock formed along the rifts, implying seafloor spreading along the rifts.

Seismic observations interpreted as slabs of former ocean floor now located inside the earth.

Answer 8

creationists believe that god made every thing as in the bible. the bible never does say how long or method.
and they can't say 6 days. they don't know how long a day is to a god.

All the days of man are just a twinkle in the eyes of god. I think that's the line.
So the proses of growth and pangea to reach the earth as we know it is biblical OK

Answer 9

Guess not; when would it have time to break up?

The world must have been created with the false evidence of pangea planted by satan, just like dinosaur bones and light from distant stars.

Answer 10

some, but there is widespread disagreement on where to place the splitting of the continents chronologically. the flood makes the most sense, but who really knows?

that's a good question; i am interested to see the other answers because i am not sure where i stand on this one.

Answer 11

No, creationists believe whatever was, and whatever is, and whatever will be, is as it is now.
Because that is how God made it!
Shame the planet is evolving due to MAN made interference!
Or was that God stoking his fire with coal, and burning petrol in his car?
