I just spent a lot of (unexamined) credibility trying to educate some of the greatest intellects here the difference between proof and beyond the valley of massive evidence.
With this simplistic comment, I see such debates with you are, how should I put it, necessarily should be a learning experience.
Do you know the difference between proof and evidence? As already pointed out, volcanic eruptions happen along with landslides and they can bury both eggs and parent with eggs.
The evidence is there. What so-called proof do you have that previous life forms were or were not subject to similar environmental conditions as exist in the present.
Please remember, evidence is not your parents, relatives, or preacher.
In my experience, they usually don't save lives by using science.
The idea of the sacred is quite simply one of the most conservative notions in any culture, because it seeks to turn other ideas - uncertainty, progress, change - into crimes.
