Planet positions and gravitational effects

[Akfine]

Considering that most of the planets are opposite to us, excluding Saturn and Pluto, could that have anything to do with major earthqauke in the last couple of years?

Just a thought.

No. I suggest you start looking into this by seeing how many earthquakes there are in a typical year. (Hint: it's more than a few)

You can also calculate (even with Newton's expression for gravity) what the gravitational force is on the Earth.

Actually, most of the brighter (larger/closer) planets are on the same side of the Sun as we are, currently. And their gravitational effects on Earth are minuscule in comparison to that of the Sun, and even our own satellite, the Moon. Gravitational forces fall off as a square of the distance between the bodies in question, and the big guys (Jupiter, Saturn, etc) are very far away.
