Mayan Calendar
2012 Ancient Mayan Prophecy
Perhaps that time has not come yet when our, Gods would listen to the beats in our hearts, peace and happiness spread their glow, perhaps we would have to force Mother Time?.
Why Does Everyone Believe The World Will End In 2012?
On the Mayan calendar, it’s the end of a cycle. Not the end of the world.

2012 is predicted by some with New Age beliefs to be a great year of spiritual transformation (or alternatively an apocalypse). This is in keeping with an uncodified, eclectic belief system referred to as Mayanism whose roots can be found in 16th century Christian eschatology affecting Maya texts such as the Popol Vuh and the Books of Chilam Balam that were written down after the Spanish Conquest.
You are absolutely correct. After answering countless questions on this, I watched the program on the Hysteria Channel. If you pay attention and listen carefully, you will hear all the “weasel words” like “may be”, “could”, etc. The entire program was done that way. Their “experts” didn’t actually say that anything was going to happen. They didn’t give any actual Bible verses to support their theory, and all the Nostradamus “quotes” weren’t what he actually wrote. They were what people have decided that he meant. Even Nostradamus scholars don’t agree on how the various centuries and quatrains should be interpreted. After watching the program I am more sure than ever that it is a silly scare tactic.
There is no actual scientific theory or evidence that anything unusual is going to happen in 2012. It is a collection of myths and disproven theories being promulgated by doomsday predictors, who predict a new one every few years.
It is based on the end of the current cycle of the Mayan long count calendar. Their calendar was done in ages or cycles and their years ended at the winter solstice. The current cycle ends December 21, 2012. They didn’t predict the end of the world, it was only the end of that cycle.
Nibiru (Planet X) doesn’t exist. Zecharia Sitchin is an author of books promoting the ancient astronaut theory for human origins. He attributes the creation of the ancient Sumerian culture to the Annunaki (or Nephilim) from a hypothetical planet named Nibiru in the solar system. The Doomsayers predicted that it was to hit Earth in 2003. Undaunted when it didn’t show up, they just moved it out to 2012 to coincide with the end of the Mayan calendar.
Galactic Alignment – There is no galactic alignment occurring in 2012. It takes 36 years to precess through galactic equator, and we will be 6 degrees off in 2012. Even if we did have an alignment, it would have no effect on us. The vast distances involved outweigh the effects of gravity.
Asteroid Apophis – the 2001 alert was for 2029, and was canceled after additional observations showed it would not hit us.
Polar Shift – the magnetic poles are moving all the time. Polar reversals have occurred in the past, but we can’t predict when they will occur again.
Passage through a “photon belt” has been added. This is also untrue and wouldn’t hurt us if it were. Photons are merely units of light.
Solar flares happen all the time and we have more of them at some times than others. They haven’t caused any serious problems in the past. The direct effects of solar flares are mainly related to communications and radio transmissions. We had a major series of solar flares in 2005.
it is a silly prediction but humans look for any way to make the future known or look for some sort of hint of whats about to come and try to put some logic behind it.
The Mayans were an advanced race and were capable of formulating advanced mathematics and chart out the stars. The Mayans predicted that the world will end in 2012 from a flood just based on the reason that the solar system or a certain group of stars were lined up in order. Just because the Mayans were advanced and were right on a number of things people think that they were correct on this prediction. I don’t think so, personally I think a race so advanced wouldn’t sacrifice millions of people to statues and their own kings.
1. Nibiru = fantastic lie.
2. Planet X = fantastic lie.
3, Planetary alignments = fantastic lie.
4. Cross galactic central plane = fantastic lie.
5. Sun, Earth and galactic centre line up = fantastic lie.
6. Photon belt = fantastic lie.
7. Mayans were best astronomers of ancient world = fantastic lie.
8. Mayans predicted end of the world = fantastic lie.
9. Some waffle about precession of the equinoxes over 26,000 or whatever years = fantastic lie.
10. Bible codes = fantastic lie.
11. Nostradamus = fantastic lie.
12. Revelation = fantastic lie.
Get my drift?
They want your money or you in some ghastly religious cult = mundane fact.
Duh, if you read the specs for the Large Hadron Collider, the grand daddy of all supercolliders, you’d head for Pluto yourself.
Supercolliders and earthquakes just don’t mix. With over 160+ moons to dabble on, they should dismantle this monster and toy around with it elsewhere. How these theoretical scientists were given total free reign is beyond me. Advocates will tell you about all the precautions they’ve built in….let me tell you, when a magnitude 7 earthquake rolls around, I’m not sure all that liquid helium is going to dissipate fast enough….we’ll all be frozen solid in 1 second…negative 452 degrees Fahrenheit ( – 452 F).
Oh, and with over 600 million collisions per second, what makes you think you can outrun the God Particle (Higgs Boson)…we’ll be torn in half:
“At full power, trillions of protons will race around the LHC accelerator ring 11, 245 times a second, travelling at 99.99% the speed of light. Two beams of protons will each travel at a maximum energy of 7 TeV (tera-electronvolt), corresponding to head-to-head collisions of 14 TeV. Altogether some 600 million collisions will take place every second.” [1}
They should’ve spent the $8 billion on using supercolliders to 1) extract ANTI-MATTER for the Anti-Matter spacecraft proposed by NASA (to reduce a trip to Mars from 8 months to 1 month); and
2) building geodynamos into the moon(s) and Mars to protect future space explorers from COSMIC rays (the Karlsruhe and Riga experiments succeeded in reaching the critical magnetic Reynolds number. They used a seed field of 0.5 gauss to jumpstart the dynamo. Probes attached to the cylinder full of molten sodium and helical tubes proved that the magnetic field kept on growing).
It’s all in the bible.
Everything that’s happening right now with the war, the new president, and the economy getting so bad.
The bible has verses that read of all the similar things going on in our world right now.
Who said everybody does? I see a minority of ignorant boobs that seem to believe this. The end of the world has been forecast no less than 200 times in the last hundred years but we are still here.
PAIGE, I dont know what you read for a Bible but mine says nothing of the sort in Revelations! There is nothing going on right now that even remotely resembles what the Bible says. Next on the list is the quackerie that Nostradamus predictions have even come close to being decoded in an understandable manner and all the ciphering thats been done is guesswork and speculation.
Nobody who knows anything believes the world is going to end in 2012.
The people who are worried know nothing about it and believe it because they are told it by someone trying to sell a book.
It’s not “everyone” who believes. It’s a minority of poorly educated, ignorant simpletons who espouse that belief.
well if you believe all that then, sure the worlds gonna end in 2012.. if you don´t then it´s all bullshit..
The Mayans have been correct almost every time, so…that is why. HOPE I HELPED…
