I await another fascinating explanation by the FES community.

I've never seen continents shift personally so I have no reason to believe that they do.

Very ignorant answers. I'm guessing since no other FE'ers have posted they currently have no explanation.

An unknown answer is better than a made up one anyday.
I applaud the response.

I suppose thats right. Better to have someone admit they don't know than to have them make up ten ridiculous theories with no physical evidence to explain it.

  • FE'ers don't do experiments. It costs too much.

So the fact that other people have seen it personally doesn't sway you? There was such a thing as a earthquake earlier this year in Japan, which has left a segment of the earth's crust in a measurably different place than it was. I'd love to see you deny this and insult the dead.

Give me a second and I'll find you a link to James explaining this.

FE'ers have no explanation so they claim it to be false. I expected a better argument than this but in all reality I should have known this would be the outcome.

Reductio ad ridiculum, and are you suggesting that the McIntyre Intelligent Dinosaur Hypothesis is incorrect?

Ah, there we go. I knew you guys had some ridiculous theory you made up to cover plate tectonics. Bravo. Also I suggest that you take another look at your list of logical fallacies. The one you used doesn't fit.

I'd consider blatantly insulting an argument without actually addressing it to be an ad ridiculum. Also, I don't quite remember why tectonics don't work (it was actually one of my first topics, but I don't remember my logic).
