Taxed2Death, I knew someone would mention that the movement of tectonic plates doesn't necessarily have to be constant. However, if you increase the movement of the plates to the amount needed to put all the continents back into one piece, in 4-6000 years....wouldn't you agree the earth would have been a very chaotic place? IE: Very many earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, etc? I'm sure they moved faster in the early days of the world, while it was hotter/still cooling down...but unless it was an astronomical amount the time frame of 4-6000 years is pretty hard to swallow. While not a 100% accurate way to measure the age of the earth, it still gives a pretty good rough estimate.
