most of them believe the idea on pangea is a lie and the planet was created with the continents being separate. they believe in the plate tectonics though.

They discount any rational thought as it is applied to geology, biology, or paleontology.
It is crazy situation. The South Americans were cultivating peppers 6000 years ago, and the Chinese were writing 8000 years ago.
Enjoy your wife and children. The wonderful blue earth. Forget those fools.

No. The Earth remains unchanged since it's creation 6000 years ago. Plate tectonic does not exist as it is not mentioned in the Bible.
