i personal dont believe it but many groups have predicted it ex: mayans,hopi indians,the bible St Malachy predicted the world will end with the 112th pope; pope bendict is our 111th pope. Why would all these people predict the same date?
True they said that by the year 2000 we would be almost like in the future, and really I don't see flying cars, but we sort of did or are in the future. Yeah just like Helrayser said, they preddict a lot years for when the world will end, but I belive that Im going to enjoy my life and we truly don't know, because those are not hard facts, there prediction!
everyone believed in the year 200, all the machines would override and shut down, and there would be chaos and murder soon after, and then we'd all die. look what happened. since the year 200, we've invented at least a hundred amazing new invention, most involving computers.
