Best Answer

James Hutton was considered foolish because he claimed the earth had been built up and eroded away several times in what was commonly considered only 6000 years. Alfred Wegener was thought to be a fool because he claimed the continents were once joined together. People thought: How could solid rock move across the oceans?
