The Pangea after the flood doesn't jive with the latest creationist
explanation of hydroplate theory. According to Hydroplate it was the
collapse of the underground aquafers that produced the flood waters and
the continents slid around to their present positions greased by the
water that was being forced out and the collapse of all the support
columns that were creating the space for the water to reside, under the
crust. So Pangea would have had to break up during the flood.

These guys have no sense of reality. The water would have been hot
already, and everyone on the ark would have been boiled. The friction
of the plates moving that distance in around a year would have pretty
much melted the surface of the earth, but they have to explain why it
looks like Pangea once existed.
