Alfred Wegener, a German meteorologist and geophysicist, presented the theory of continental drift in 1912. His theory was later supported by evidence from Paleontology, geology, and geophysics, leading to the development of the theory of plate tectonics.
I think that continetal drift replaced his theory
The continental drift theory was replaced by the theory of plate tectonics.

No, the Earth's magnetic poles are not responsible for continental drift. Continental drift is primarily driven by the movement of tectonic plates in the Earth's lithosphere. The Earth's magnetic field does play a role in plate tectonics through magnetic stripes on the ocean floor, but it is not the primary cause of continental drift.
Yes, fossils are evidence of continental drift because similar fossils have been found on different continents that are now far apart. This suggests that these continents were once connected, supporting the theory of continental drift.

Alfred Wegner originally thought of the continental drift theory, but he wasn't believed when he presented it. After his death (of course) the theory was proved.
Alfred Wegener started the search which then caused scientists to start the search. They eventually proved his theory.
Continental Drift is an obsolete name for the theory of Plate Tectonics and yes, it is true. It has been proved in many ways, by comparing the composition of oceanic crust and its ages with that of the continental crust, by plotting the reversals of magnetism in the oceanic crust and many other ways.
Continental Drift
People thought he was crazy and not very smart but he proved them. He found a way.
No; continental drift is a geological process.
No, only Continental Drift Theory.
Is there a list? Continental drift is real, so religious fanatics don't provide evidence for continental drift.
I think that continetal drift replaced his theory
improvements in technology like drilling for rock samples and instruments that measure magnetism of the iron in the sea floor rock
