Do you tink the world will end in 2012.

Good lord no, ask the people who went to the hills and had their last rites read to them in the year 1000 how that went.btaylor2404

You what the saddest thing is? No matter how many of these so called "doomsday predictions" are shown to be BS, some people just keep buying into them all the same.

There's more to it than that... The Mayans made a doomsday prophecy. The reason there's a stir about 2012 is because the Mayans have predicted other events in the past that have actually been quite accurate. It's not because the calandar ends...RotaryRX7

[QUOTE="guitarheroF22"] actually, they did. do your research.guitarheroF22

I can't research on something thats made up:P.

Did anyone ever stop to think that maybe the Mayans just got bored of writing the calender. :)

I still don't understand how exactly it's supposed to end. The mayan calendar ends on that year but so what? Apocalypse97

This is acording to the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar which apperently ends in 2012 so no but u never no wats gonna happen.

I lawled at that one. Must've ben quite a day for those people.

BY THE WAY. I like your user icon wiifan99.

I dont understand where people get the assumption that because the Mayan calender ends on that year, so does the world.

I agree: Perhaps it only ends on 2012, because they may have been attacked rather vicously, and the guys who were making the calander were killed.
Just because it ends on that year does not necissarily mean its the end. I don't know why people don't think of that.

i dont think so...i mean, eventually we'll probably just destroy ourselfs in a battle for power.
thats how i see the human race disappearing.

humans are a paranoid race.

I think the world will end when the world ends. Stop worrying about it and live your life.

tahts all it is. its a astromical cycle that is about to complete itself and start over. don't know what it called I can't remember. as for the doomsday thing , A guy( can't remember his name either) came to the conclusion that he calaender ending must meen that hte world is ending:roll:

The History/Discovery channel is banking on the world ending in 2012, and when it doesn't, they still made a killing in the ratings due to hype/sensationalism, so it's a win-win situation for them either way (Capitalist pricks). It's like milking bogus Y2K fear for maximum profit all over again.
