Or am I wrong to assume that believers actually give any credence to tectonic plate theory?
Well, let's look at it this way:
Geology is wrong - radiometric dating proves that strata aren't the age scientists claim.
Radiometric dating is wrong - even though they use it to disconfirm geology (which it doesn't do)
Anthropology is wrong - because the Bible says man was created as a unique creature
Paleontology is wrong - because the Bible says all creatures were created within a couple of days of each other
Cosmology is wrong - because the Bible says..... well, you get the point
I don't think that, after denying all other obvious discoveries of science, it is too complicated for them to deny tectonic theory.
