Computer models of how Pangea fit together ignore information concerning Central and South America. And, as I said, the way Pangea is usually drawn (at least) shrinks Africa. There are good articles online by creationists that do discuss continental drift. ALL of the suggestions are hypotheses both for the evolutionary side and against. Note, I am not arguing against Plate Techtonics, just against the particular evolutionary interpretation of them.

Plate tectonics is a theory, not a hypothesis. Please be aware of this very important point, it makes a big difference to us fuddy duddy science guys.

There are numerous evidences supporting Pangea. Soil evidence, fossil evidence, mineral evidence, visual evidence, seismic evidence, genetic evidence, faunal evidence. I won't bore you with all that stuff, as you can simply put the phrases "xxx evidence pangea" in google and you'll be rewarded.

Since AndrewC has accused me (implicitly at least) of not focusing, can we return to your contention that "continents aren't on lily pads but there's lots of dirt beneath them?" I mean, that was a pretty important thing you said there and didn't return to.
