Scientist rejected Wegners hypothesis of continental drift at first because he did not have enogh evidence to support his theory. He failed to provide a suitable mechanism that could cause the continents to move.
Because Wegner couldn't explain how continental drift happened. Later on the scientists found out that Wegner was right.
I hope this really helped you :D
Most scientists originally reject the theory of continental drift since it did clearly explain continents would move. This is a theory that has been established by Wegener and did not get good support initially.
this is easy! I LEARNED IT IN SCIENCE! WERGNER DICOVERED IT. WEGNERS EARLIER THEORY OF CONTINENTAL DRIFT WAS REEXAMMINED AND A NEW THEORY WAS BORN ............................ THE THEORY OF PLATE TECTONICS
Alfred Wegner's continental drift theory was ignored because he didn't have enough proof to show everyone that tectonic plates were moving. The supercontinent Pangaea sounded like a big fantasy to everyone back then.

Alfred Wegener
The main problem with Wegners theory of continental drift was that at the time he proposed it he had no real proof.

Wegner was the man who established the theory of "continental drift" in 1912

They rejected Wegener's theory for half a century because he could not identify the cause of continental drift.

Scientists treat all theories the same way, popular or not. They will reject any theory if evidence appears which contradicts it.
