- NEW!
Help answer this question below.
Heck, I believe it's the end of the world when I can't get on the internet;)
I've got a book on that I was reading- 'Apocalypse 2012' by Lawrence Joseph. I got halfway through it here at work & havent read anymore of it for a while now. (Hopefully I finish it before 2012) There are some good arguements but I think its more speculative than anything else. Besides, people need something to be afraid of/it sells books/it seems appropriate in turbulent times like these to be afraid of something.
I couldnt forsee though, that there's anything out there thats sitting dormant, waiting for Dec 21 2012 to trigger it to destroy Earth. More likely the Mayans just didnt know how to count past 2012, or that was the number of all the toes & fingers the Mayans could find to count in their village. Or they got sick of predicting stuff, or their crayon ran out.
No. This is based on what some call an old Mayan calendar prediction. There are two problems with it. One, it's when the Mayan calendar resets itself, not when time ends and two, they couldn't even predict their own demise, much less the end of the world thousands of years later.
There has been many dooms day dates given and all have failed. I hear the little boy crying wolf.
December 21, 2012 is the last date on the Mayan calendar.
I do not remember Nostradamous setting this date in any of his writings.
Other cultures have noted the end-date of 2012, but most do not predict the end of the world. They indicate a major change in many things on earth and in the lives upon her, but not their demise.
A shift in the earth's poles is occuring now and will supposedly be about mid-point in 2012.
There are unusual astrological occurances taking place then as well.
Fasten your seatbelt! The ride may just be starting to get interesting.
I am sure in 2012 many lives will be lost. As for the end who can truly predict such an event? I think you know that no one can.
YAY, only 3 yrs to go!
Of course I do . That's why I've quit my job, ran away with a younger man, robbed a bank and left the country. ANyone who thinks the world will still be here december 23rd, is a idot and a fool.
I hope not...I've got so many emails to reply to
well if it wasnt 1989 and not 2000 or 9/11 its 2012 then . . . some new date some other historian philosophies' and calculate to never let the armageddon die
The Bible says that no one knows the day or hour. That means: if someone says it's going to end at this time or that, it won't.
No the bible is very clear that no one knows but the Father. Too many people are expecting the world to end in 2012 for the world to actually end in 2012.
I think the world will end when we figure we have everything all figured out. At that point people are going to be so confident that they are going to stop predicting the end of the world. . . And then the world will finally end.
Yes, Napolean Bonaparte, Mussolini, Stalin and Hitler are going to come back from the dead. They are going to join forces and try to take over the whole world.
Even though there are a lot of 2012 theories, no, I don't believe them. I've done some research on apocalypse theories, and the most likely thing to end the earth is a meteorite. That could happen at any given time, but even then the chances of that happening soon are quite minimal. 2012 theories aren't really supported by very hard evidence.
Oh why? who said that??!!
Wait and watch!
No. I dont. why the heck should it?
No. The Bible state's, No one know's the time or day when Jesus return's except the Father who send's him.
Nostradamus never actually gave a set date for when anything was supposed to happen. He was cryptic in everything he wrote, and you can barely adapt his 'predictions' even using hindsight. Barely.
Also you're thinking of the Mayans, who oddly enough didn't predict the world was going to end on December 21, 2012. Their calendar actually went far beyond 2012, just some guy got hold of the calendar and assumed that, because some arbitrary cycle was ending on the equivalent of Dec 21, 2012, that the Mayans predicted the World would end then. But, like every end-theory, it's entirely fabricated. Oddly enough, if the Mayans were still around they would be having a huge party on that date. And no, it wouldn't be a party to celebrate the end of the world.
No.
I'll make you a deal: I'll give you $100 per day until Dec 12, 2012, if you agree to give me $100 per day after Dec 12, 2012 for as long as I live. Deal?
This question has been asked many, many times on here.
Dec 21, 2012 is when the Mayan calender runs out. Some have tied this to the end of the world. I do not believe it will be the end of the world but it could be a major change occuring in the world of some kind.
I guess we will just have to wait and see.
Natural disasters happened almost every year in the past, so it would be quite safe to predict the same for 2012. +3
thats the date set for my wedding
For lots of people it will! Won't that freak some out if they actually believe this horseshit and 'throw a valve' or something that morning?!
;-)
it is impossible!
True story: the Mayans didn't predict the world would end in 2012. They didn't even end their calendar there, they merely ended a cycle on that date. And yes, other cycles of theirs have ended. In fact, they even planned stuff AFTER 2012. It's just that some failed sociologist misinterpreted the whole thing and decided it'd be a great subject for a fictitious book.
oh no, the mayan calendar ends in 2012!!! that must mean the mayan calandar sayes the world will end in 2012!!!! WAIT, my calendar ends december 31 THIS YEAR!!! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE DEC 31 08!!!!!!!!!
hmm, that didn't happen... well this years callender has been updated... it ends december 31... OH CRAP now were all gonna die december 31 2009!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAHHHHHH
There is no such prophecy.
I CERTAINLY hope not! (I have two boys that aren't married, yet... Three step children (two girls and a boy) who aren't married yet... and a step-grandchild I'd like to get to know better. This doesn't include all my nieces and nephews (none of which are married yet) and my cousin's kids.)
People have been making predictions and prophecies about the end since the dawn of creation. It's just another prediction of end times. It's gaining attention because it ties in with the end of the Mayan calendar, that's all. 2012 will come and go and then we will have another 'end' date, and so it goes.
It will be like anyother year, similar to this one or the previous, the messiah is not going to come down on a white horse to save us. There's not enough room in heaven for all of us anyways... if your uptoose enough to believe your going to be first in line before everyone else, boy, are you settleing in for some disappointment. This "End of Days" craze, as predicted by the Mayan calender is no differant than the Y2K hysteria. This is not the first end of the world fad, and it will surely not be the last.
Yeah ... just like I was afraid of 1981 & 1988 ... and 2000 ...
Not really ... It's ALL guess-work!
Nope. If the world ends in 2012 I'll shit on a bun and eat it. That is my promise to everyone in the world.
Nope - just another doomsday scenario, there have been many before there will be many again. 2012 is going to be a damp squib just like all the others. The fun part, as always, will be watching/reading the explanations of the doom-sayers when 1st Jan 2013 (or 22nd Dec 2012 whichever you choose) rolls around.
I can't wait for it actually.
Come 2013, I will enjoy laughing at all the morons who believed the world would end.
Didn't you hear......The world ended back in 2000!
Nope, why should I fear a year? They have been predicting the end of the world for so long now that it is simply boring. Besides, death is inevitable anyway.
Not at all, If it is the year the world ends I will be home with my Lord.
People have been predicting the end many times before and were wrong..I expect to be here..
Nope! +5 I see you changed your name again! A little overtime with the knife & fork? lol
1. I highly doubt it
2. It's against the rules here to type in all caps because it is percieved as shouting
3. This question is a duplicate and keeps getting asked over and over.
It's supposedly a Mayan theory, the Mayan's calendar ends on that date, so that's supposed to be the last day of the world. However the Mayans disappeared off the face of the earth somehow, maybe the rest of their calendar went with them.
But I don't believe that is the last day...
Well, I think more than a few people will make good money selling books, DVD's and other "end of the world" media related stuff. Remember Y2K? This is something like that again. Nothing is gonna happen!
I don't think the heavens would let us off that easy.
Let us know what our last day on earth is to prepare for it?
No, God'll keep us in the dark, keep us guessing, so when everybody least expects it, Jesus'll be all,
"HA, now what?!"
Nooo that isss sooo not true. God will end the world when hefeels it is time. So noo that is not true
Y2K, There is always something ending the world. If it's ending there is nothing I can do to stop it.
Actually two things:
1- A mega-huge volcanic eruption in Yellowstone Park will happen on December 21, 2012.
2- Also I will be three years older in May of 2012.... Bummer!
Doomsday REALLY does exist, ONLY for those who've died. For everyone else, life goes on.
There is no doomsday, no god & no devil. Now that the air is cleared from all the stupidity, can we (the human race) focus on something more productive?
There's too much work to do down here on earth, where we ALL live. let's make it or at least try to make it a better place to live. I mean it, seriously. Look at all the stupid shit we've done to one another through the ages. When are we going to wake up already and take responsibility for ourselves as human beings?
It's up to us to stop with the blame-game & other bullshit! (Yes, ALL of US!!!).
I want to live by dice for a few days, any suggestions for the options i should use?

We all know making counterfeit money is illegal; but in movies we see "real cash" being used. How do they get 'by it' ?
