hula girls...
1) Movement. Or lack thereof.
8) Volcanism.
These two items bring up the matter of the formation of the Hawaiian Islands. The ancient natives of the islands were able to tell the difference in the ages of the islands and handed down their legends of Pele and his flight from Kauai to the Big Island.
quote:
the volcanoes of the Hawaiian chain... get progressively older and become more eroded the farther they travel beyond the hotspot. The oldest volcanic rocks on Kauai, the northwesternmost inhabited Hawaiian island, are about 5.5 million years old and are deeply eroded. By comparison, on the "Big Island" of Hawaii -- southeasternmost in the chain and presumably still positioned over the hotspot -- the oldest exposed rocks are less than 0.7 million years old and new volcanic rock is continually being formed.

The following link is an excellent short walk through and goes beyond just a consideration of the Hawaiian Islands to a brief discussion of the Hawaiian Ridge and Emperor Seamounts.

Re: Compression at MOR's kills plate tectonics
Once this observable fact sinks into the cranium of those who have professed the geological MYTH of Continental Drift via plate tectonic sea-floor spreading, then it becomes obvious that the credibility of nearly the entire scientific community is in grave question.
Is that how it works? Truly evolution has no preferred direction..

and the island forming volcanism (including Hawaii) are the remnant "gurgling" of this massive explosive/subsidence event that obliterated what was once dry land.
..and that would explain a linear progression in radiometric dates from the Big Island to the end at Suiko Seamount how??

If you want to be forgiven, learn to forgive, and eventually you may become generous enough to include yourself along with the rest of humanity.
