As most thought in that era, the majority of people in the 18th century believed that earthquakes and other natural disasters were the pinnacle of punishment delivered upon them by a supernatural deity or power for commiting unforgivable sins.
However, there were some individuals who believed in the scientific cause of earthquakes (the shifting of tectonic plates), but these people were few and far in between.
