Surely the centre of the Earth is, in fact, the core? And if you look at a map of Pangea, such as at http://geology.com/pangea.htm then the 'centre' of Pangea is rather hard to guage. Either in the middle of the Sea of Tethys or somewhere in the middle of North Africa? [[User:Darkmind1970|Darkmind1970]] 11:41, 4 January 2008 (EST)

:To defend that claim, I'd point out that (a) the reference is talking about the centre of the ''surface'', or of the landmass, not the centre of the globe as one my legitimately infer from the phrase, and that it does seem that the middle east would have originated near the point of what was later termed the Sea of Tethys, which is arguably around the centre of the landmass. However, the claim itself is tenuous, probably only one person's view (I've never heard it before in over 30 years of studying creation), and not worthy of inclusion, so I've deleted it.
