Plate Tectonics

Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.

(Isaiah 13:13) KJV

Current biodiversity on Earth is the result of evolution, and its distribution is the result of plate tectonics. These combine into Hypothesis 35 as we go from Noah to Peleg, and then from Peleg to Abraham.

The Earth was Divided

Cutaway comparison of Earth before and after Peleg's tectonics

September 8

To Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother’s name was Joktan.

(Genesis 10:25) NKJV

To Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother’s name was Joktan.

Continental Uplifts and a Major Orogeny

To Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother’s name was Joktan.

(Genesis 10:25) NKJV

Biblical Gravitation and the Cause of Noah’s Flood

But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented.

(Luke 16:25-26) NKJV

A problem in creationism is: what caused the breakup of Pangaea and the formation of tectonic plates? Was it the waters of Noah’s flood or an extra-terrestrial impact? We say neither.
