Summarize this:

continents could drift apart and come together.

Considering the weight of evidence that emerged after Wegener's initial proposal, it is highly unlikely that just a map showing the fit of the continents alone would be sufficient to convince scientists and the general scientific community today. Wegener's map was an interesting observation, but it required additional evidence from various fields of study to establish the theory of continental drift as a widely accepted scientific principle.

The initial observation made by Wegener about the fit of the continents was thought to be insufficient evidence to convince scientists and the scientific community. Additional evidence from various fields of study was needed to establish continental drift as a widely accepted scientific principle.
