We're not quite sure what the question means by "earth's tilt" or "stay the same".

The axis of the earth's rotation is inclined about 67.5 degrees to the plane of

the earth's orbit, and that doesn't change. Over the course of a human lifetime,

or several human lifetimes, the pole of earth's axis remains pointed toward the

same spot in the sky, presently quite close to the star Polaris. Over a period of

26,000 years, the pole describes a circle in the sky, but the axis remain inclined

to the plane of the orbit by the same 67.5 degrees.

So we must take issue with the premise of the question, and say that the earth's

"tilt" does in fact "stay the same".
