Do you think the world will end in 2012?

Posted on 08/10/09, 03:45 pm

I personally think its kind of a joke. :/ They've predicted it several different times saying that the world would end and every time it has failed. I'm not denying that it WON'T happen but i just don't think it will any time soon and if it does it might as well be just our own doing; but i wanna know what YOU think about it. :] [and if it does happen at least let me grab my daploma before it does lol cause i graduate in 2012]

  I guess I haven't heard the prediction that the world will end in 2012. I do recall hearing it would end in 2000. I don't think it will end in 2012 however at the rate the government is going these days I have no doubt a lot of lives will be in misery.

  I think the world of christianity as we know it will end the day we figure the "top secret ingredient" of it as it is... 2012, mnah! Perhaps not?

  Personally, no. I heard there was a similar fuss at the turn of the millennium. And then it was a big deal (at least here) in 2006. So I don't see any truth to it. If anything the world ends every year for someone. (Though I'm a bit curious as to why the hype is over 2012 instead of 2013... Haha)

  Nothing I have read about the Mayan culture leads me to believe that the end of their calendar signals the end of the world or, anything else special for that matter. Some people claim Nostradomus also predicted 2012 but that is false. He never mention specific dates in his writing.
  
  2012 - it's the new Y2K

  The Mayans sacraficed themselves to extinction. A Tribe with so little to no value toothier own life no matter how impressive there talents surely dont deserve to be treated as all knowing knowledge people with a gift to know a end of anything. But themselves.............? LOL*

  I don't know where you're getting your info, Kiska, the Mayans were very sophisticated
  The 2012 thing is just a calendar, a turning of the astronomical page.
  Check the links I left above.
  No value to their own lives? Sacrificed themselves to extinction? What history class did you take? Try looking up Spanish Conquistadors & Disease.

  Didn't Nostradamus predict stuff after the year 3000? It seems to me I remember that, no dates just after 3000...

  mycolors,,,,,,,,,,,, these people sacrificed children,women,men,boys,pregnant women. There extinct today,gone,A living Mayan doesn't exist today. Archeology proofs it. Also no man,or book has written dates, or times of the true end of man. Truth is beyond knowledge,or human prediction. Even the son of God doesn't know the time, the day. Famine,disease, other suffrage people lived with are where sacrifices of ( human blood) came in existence............. To please God, or Gods.. Fear is powerful and makes people do stupit eveil things.
