we are going to die. december 2012

To put it simply: No.

 

And these periods of aligning earth, sun and imagined center of our galaxy are recognized by nice things (peace and nice stuff on earth), not wars and destructions. At least ancient Egyptians in their scripts are telling so.

 

I've heard that one too. But I saw something on the history channel that NASA has discovered a huge asteroid and that will pass (hopefully) the December 21 2012 date.

 

No, you mean like how the World was meant to end the other 132,246,335' times .

 

wow, I wonder if there is a similar thread about this

 

4 years to go

 

I've heard this lots of times, I guess the Mayans also predicted hurricane Catrina and a bunch of other stuff to.

 

Here's a list of all the 'end of the world' dates in the past.

http://www.bible.ca/pre-date-setters.htm

Over 220 dates dating (dates dating, heh) from 44 to 2047.

If all of the dates from 44AD to 2007AD were FALSE (proof: I am typing this message in 2008 )
Then that means approx 98% of the predicted dates for the end of the world were false, and the rest are still unknown.

Another statistical inference: They say they have 220 dates, and I count 7 after 2007 that say a date and not 'soon'.
That means approx 96.8% of the predicted dates for the end of the world have been proven false so far.

Now, that does not mean that for every 100 dates, the world ended 3.2 times, no. It's just that 96.8% of them have been proven false so far.

I am willing to bet that the world will go on past 2012, 2013, and 2047. No human can predict the end of the world, because no human can CAUSE the end of the world (yet).

This is what I propose: If the world ends anytime from Jan 1 2012 to Dec 31 2012, I will give you $10. If it does not end, You give me $10 on Jan 1 2013.

Anyone up for it?

 

Has anybody been to Copan? The Mayan temples are really amazing. You have to know that the Mayans were really advanced.

 

It would be just my look to get my business up and running and to have my life going exactly the way i want it only to have the world end. I have read about that as well. If it does come to an end then all i can say is, "Everything comes to an end sooner or later" so my advice is don't lose any sleep over. Just make sure you do something you have always wanted to do just before dec 2012 just in case it does end.

 

That's a good idea. I'll have to accelerate my plans of world destruction before a blasted asteroid beats me to it...

 

I'm glad you asked this question, I've watched so much on this and I think it will happen !!!

If the earths poles shift and such as predicted and the world starts to cause havoc on us it will be bad.

@ Debunker: Thanks for the link!.

 

Yup, bad. I think that pretty much sums it up.

 

Lol i don't belive this kind of junk...

 

Not to mention the mayans found the black hole in the center of our galaxy long before modern science did. they just barley recently found it so the mayans knew what they were doing...


Anyway heres 7 more reasons why the world would end in 2012 from another forum.




1. Mayan Calendar



The first mob to predict 2012 as the end of the world were the Mayans, a bloodthirsty race that were good at two things:

Building highly accurate astrological equipment out of stone and
Sacrificing Virgins.

Thousands of years ago they managed to calculate the length of the lunar moon as 329.53020 days, only 34 seconds out. The Mayan calendar predicts that the Earth will end on December 21, 2012. Given that they were pretty close to the mark with the lunar cycle, it's likely they've got the end of the world right as well.

2. Sun Storms



Solar experts from around the world monitoring the sun have made a startling discovery: our sun is in a bit of strife. The energy output of the sun is, like most things in nature, cyclic, and it's supposed to be in the middle of a period of relative stability. However, recent solar storms have been bombarding the Earth with so much radiation energy, it's been knocking out power grids and destroying satellites. This activity is predicted to get worse, and calculations suggest it'll reach its deadly peak sometime in 2012

3. The Atom Smasher

Scientists in Europe have been building the world's largest particle accelerator. Basically its a 27km tunnel designed to smash atoms together to find out what makes the Universe tick. However, the mega-gadget has caused serious concern, with some scientists suggesting that it's properly even a bad idea to turn it on in the first place. They're predicting all manner of deadly results, including mini black holes. So when this machine is fired up for its first serious experiment in 2012, the world could be crushed into a super-dense blob the size of a basketball.

4. The Bible says...

If having scientists warning us about the end of the world isn't bad enough,religious folks are getting in on the act aswell. Interpretations of the Christian Bible reveal that the date for Armageddon, the final battle between Good an Evil, has been set down for 2012. The I Ching, also known as the Chinese book of Changes, says the same thing, as do various sections of the Hindu teachings.

5. Super Volcano



Yellowstone National Park in the United States is famous for its thermal springs and Old Faithful geyser. The reason for this is simple - it's sitting on top of the world's biggest volcano, and geological experts are beginning to get nervous sweats. The Yellowstone volcano has a pattern of erupting every 650,000 years or so, and we're many years overdue for an explosion that will fill the atmosphere with ash, blocking the sun and plunging the Earth into a frozen winter that could last up to 15,000 years. The pressure under the Yellowstone is building steadily, and geologists have set 2012 as a likely date for the big bang.

6. The Physicists

This one's case of bog-simple maths mathematics. Physicists at Berekely Uni have been crunching the numbers. and they've determined that the Earth is well overdue for a major catastrophic event. Even worse, they're claiming their calculations prove, that we're all going to die, very soon - while also saying their prediction comes with a certainty of 99 percent- and 2012 just happens to be the best guess as to when it occurs.

7. Slip-Slop-Slap-BANG!

We all know the Earth is surrounded by a magnetic field that sheilds us from most of the sun's radiation. What you might not know is that the magnetic poles we call north and south have a nasty habit of swapping places every 750,000 years or so - and right now we're about 30,000 years overdue. Scientists have noted that the poles are drifting apart roughly 20-30kms each year, much faster than ever before, which points to a pole-shift being right around the corner. While the pole shift is underway, the magnetic field is disrupted and will eventually disappear, sometimes for up to 100 years. The result is enough UV outdoors to crisp your skin in seconds, killing everything it touches.

 

who cares? i've still time till 2012.

 

The question is: what will you do with that time?

 

honestly i would like to see more research put into it, I know it could be a load of BULL but if it really is true I would like to know so i could stop working and smoke doobies all day and drink till i puke every night haha would beat working my ass off online all day. just to die 4 years down the line...

 

Oh come on... don't believe those predictions. There are countries aspire to be developed nation by year 2020. If that happen they might have to work hard to achieve the target before 2012

 

yeah, i'm not sure exactly what I'd do but it wouldn't be what I'm doing right now. being the richest dead man won't do me much good. :]
