Because the earth was thought to be made by god, and it was perfect and no continental crusts. The existence of continental crusts is one of the many evidence that proved Pangaea to be a theory.
Also, the existence of the fossil records of the same species along the Coastlines of 2 different places confirms Pangea.
The current movements in earth's crust also provide evidence that Pangaea could have formed.
Most scientists were not given this data and therefore the evidence for Pangaea was vague. Only now has the evidence shown more consistency.
Science is skeptical my friend.
What else can I help you with?
Was pangaea the only supercontinent that ever existed?
No, Pangaea was not the only supercontinent that ever existed. Other supercontinents include Rodinia and Gondwana, which formed and broke apart over the Earth's history due to the movement of tectonic plates.
What is the huge continent scientist believe there was millions of years ago?
Pangea (or Pangaea) was a "supercontinent" that scientists believe incorporated almost all of the earth's landmasses. It began to break apart about 200 million years ago, and eventually the modern continents and Atlantic and Indian Oceans were formed.
How many stages do scientists hypothesis there are to pangaea?
Scientists hypothesize that there are two main stages to the formation of Pangaea: the assembly stage, during which the continents were moving closer together, and the breakup stage, when Pangaea began to split into separate continents.
Many scientists believe a giant supercontinent once existed called?
Pangaea. It formed about 300 million years ago and began breaking apart around 200 million years ago, eventually leading to the formation of today's continents.
What did scientists call the land mass that all the continents used to be in?
Scientists called the now separated land mass "Pangaea."
Did the entire world once consist of a single continent?
scientists believe that it did and it was called Pangaea
Was there pengea?
It is accepted by most scientists that there was a supercontinent called Pangaea.
What is the name give to describe the single huge continent that scientists believe once existed?
Pangaea.
What is the name of the next supercontinent theorized by scientists and mapped by Dr CR Scotese?
I believe its called Pangaea Ultima.
How did scienists react to pangaea?
scientists reacted differently around pangaea
What is the name of the huge super continent that scientists think once exited?
i believe that you are refering to Pangaea (pan-GEE-(short)a)

Did Pangaea ever really exist?
Nobody really knows if Pangaea really existed. People believe it did because if you shift the continents, it looks like it could make Pangaea. There are many other reasons, but that is the most common.
Was Pangaea the only supercontinent to have existed and why?
Pangea was the only supercontinent, which Wegner tried to prove. After Wegner died, scientists now believe that Pangea did exist and now believe that there was more than one supercontinent.
Many scientists believe a giant supercontinent once existed called?
Pangaea. It formed about 300 million years ago and began breaking apart around 200 million years ago, eventually leading to the formation of today's continents.
