The idea of plate tectonics is today such a deeply ingrained idea that many people assume the concept is completely proved and is the only obvious way to explain the Earth’s crust. Many creationists – and I include myself – would suggest that plate tectonics is indeed the best explanation, though we would not accept the evolutionary timescale, suggesting that tectonic movement must have been rapid and catastrophic in the early days of the Flood.
