I am sorry Jay, but this is a gross misuse of Holy Scripture, which is the
Word of God. Genesis 10. 25 says "To Eber were born two sons, the name of
the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided." To force that
into the break-up of Pangea is on one level so absurd and ridiculous to be
risible in the extreme. But on another level it is an absolute mockery of
God's Word. Consider 1 Tim 1.vs 4 "nor to occupy themselves with myths and
endless genealogies which promote speculations rather than divine training"
