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?
Neither are Ipods, but they're still around. Anyway, don't make everything about the Bible. This is not a session for you to ask me about what i think about our religion.
The "Prediction of the Maya" has nothing to do with religion to begin with. The stone that scientists found was a celestial calendar that recorded the movement of astral bodies through the heavens, particularly the sun and moon. I'm no expert, but from what I've heard, Mayan's recorded these movements on whatever they had available, i.e. stone. Now, as cosmic events are circular in nature, I imagine that they recorded events up until they reached their original starting point. After that, well, things started over, so what was the point? If you ask me, 2012 is nothing more than the natural order of the universe coming full circle, as they tend to do. As far as I'm concerned, anyone saying otherwise is just a fear monger.
I read somewhere that scientists made a wrong interpretation of the Mayan's calendar, instead of 2012 it could be any number. And there have been predictions before and nothing actually happened...
And I don't really care about it, I don't think it will end in 2012 but if it does. It won't happen like in the movie, I think ...
Here's what it comes down to: there is no evidence to say the world IS going to end, and we can't be certain that it isn't going to end. And anybody(like me) who says they do believe in 2012 just gets told things like: are you stupid?, that's retarded!, people thought the world was going to end before and were wrong!
So what leads you to believe such insanity? I'm curious.
What leads people to believe in anything that isn't completely proven by science?
The World ending on December 21, 2012 will be caused by natural events per the Mayan prophecy; as this is the realm of science it makes people skeptical when there's no evidence for it.
