We need a way to separate people from each other. Continents was the most effective means of doing this. Otherwise, we'd all look the same, speak the same language and live in the same country. How boring is that.
Also, living on continents allows more people to have water front properties.

Because we can't live under water. We are made for living on land. Millions of years ago, there was only one continent called Pangea. That continent separated and became the continents that we know today.

At one time the earth was one with one super continent called pangea. Over several hundred million years the continents have drifted to their present positions. They will keep moving for millions mores years and who knows what the world will look like then. All I know Is I wont be around to see it.

because we are human, we cannot live in the sea, well, at least there is better option, it is to live in the land.
The earth contains the ocean and the land, this land is divided by continents, and the continent is separated by the ocean and the river.
Actually, the right statement is we live in the crust of the earth, that float above the fluid of the earth ( ocean, lava, water stream, etc)

some folks live on islands. Those of us that live on continents do so because we need to use the ATMs.

Pangaea got all busted up by plate tectonics. And it's still happening.
