In Norse mythology, earthquakes were explained as the violent struggling of the god Loki. When Loki, god of mischief and strife, murdered Baldr, god of beauty and light, he was punished by being bound in a cave with a poisonous serpent placed above his head dripping venom. Loki's wife Sigyn stood by him with a bowl to catch the poison, but whenever she had to empty the bowl the poison would drip on Loki's face, forcing him to jerk his head away and thrash against his bonds, causing the earth to tremble

I think it has more to do with plate tectonics myself

Apparently some people believe we all came from 2 people in a nice garden with a talking snake, and that all creatures were already there.

Can't have been that nice with velociraptors running around!

plate tectonics FFS

next thing you'll be saying is that the earth is spherical and that the climate is changing

Christianity:

The belief that a cosmic Jewish zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

maybe consider how plate techtonic movements occur.

could be something to do with our cosmic alignment/position. could be to do with sun spots and changing solar rays. could be something to do with the changing magnetosphere which appears to be as a result in changes of humanity's collective consciousness then therefore our own individual and collective energy fields (we all have one). similarly there is also research suggesting that the burning of ethanol en masse by some factories causes higher atmospheric weight which can also ultimately affect the ground we walk on.

could be HAARP in some circumstances - ie man made. us secretary of state in 1994 said other governments were developing capability to cause "natural disasters" as a weapon of war superior to the nuke due to its hiddne nature (think it was phrased differently, but this was the mesg). of course the us deny having this tech themselves when all research points to the fact that with haarp they are the world's leaders in the field.

also consider how many earthquakes in the last 100 years. and how many in the last decade. the last decade has seen them in extreme numbers when compared to the entire century.

there ya go - a few more things to look into or think about if you can be bothered
