Second I believe that there were two biblical events that would explain fossils.. one the Great Flood two the whole Babylon experience, I believe that Pangaea existed up till this time and it is here that it is broken apart and our current continental situation was brought forth.. this process would not have left as many fossils but certainly it could have...
Galloping continents.
However, for some strange reason, the continents have slowed their drifting down to
exactly the rate that one deduces with the help of radioisotope dating of rocks. Currently, the rate is typically around ~3 cm/yr, as can be deduced from earthquake effects, VLBI, and GPS measurements. Over 200 million years, this adds up to ~6000 km, which is about the distance from their Pangaea positions.
Furthermore, there is an abundance of evidence for pre-Pangaea continental drift. There are some old mountain ranges, like the Appalachians and the Urals, which are results of the formation of Pangaea from earlier continents. And there are several orogens, mountain-range roots, that date back much further, some to over 2 billion years.
So continents have been playing "bumper cars" for the last 2 billion years.
As we know it does not take a huge amount of years to cause fossils, just the right circumstance
Why drag in such irrelevancies?
Fossils are NOT dated by estimates of how long they take to form.
