Hello.
I am interested in 2012, notably - the Mayan prophecy about the end of the world 12.21.2012. Many people talk about it now, besides, the movie comes out soon. I'm interested to read something about it. Disclosing this theme.
Advise me some articles please.

Thank you

Mr. K

You want to know whats going to happen on 12.21.2012?

My 23 birthday that's what, and I like the attention to be on me. So hush up about this nonsence.

If something happens, it happens. IF we die, we die.

You want to make guesses on how we might be going?

Here are my guesses: BOMB/NUKE, COMET, Epic outbreak, SuperVolcano.

There you go.

Now I am going to get fat while I wait for the great famine.

But its not a prophecy, its just the end of a mathematical sequence of numbers that make up the Mayan calender. Most scholars believe that it just fits into the Mayan mythos that they would be leaving one era and moving into the next where the Mayan calender would just start over again. Had the Spanish not wiped out the Mayans' ancestors, we would have a better idea of what this calender means.

Scientists also predict a polar shift too, there's evidence of it in the fossil record, where the physical poles would shift from their current location (or out right inverse). This would cause untold disaster all over the world affecting weather, earthquakes, volcano's, floods, tidal waves, flash freezing resulting in ice ages in some areas, and the list goes on...

You realize that being obese, you would require more food to sustain yourself, and you'd starve faster then those that aren't?

That's brutal

Another one of these threads?

It's hard for me to take any idea on how/when the world will end seriously. No matter how good our science is... No matter what technology we develop... Mother nature is far more powerful, and when she decides it's time to go, we have to just accept it. Or... rather... I will accept it and watch everyone else freak out. That's all I can really say about any "end of the world" idea or theory.

And I'm not Mayan. So it's all good. >.>;; JK, JK.

If the world DOES end in 2012, I hope it will be the zombie apocolypse... For I am the zombie survivor expert. And I've got a whole gun case full of goodies just waiting for some zombie killin' time. (Sorry... that's about as serious as I can take the topic!)

Well, nothing fancy happened on New Year's Eve 1999, so chances are bad that the world ends 2012.
If you're really interested though, you might want to check out this thread SamuraiDude128 opened, could be of interest I guess.

Except of course Mr.K's a bear, simply hibernates and thus endures the famine.
And by the way, happy birthday 3 years in advance, in case I'm dead. I'd feel bad missing out on wishing you a happy birthday then.

2012 is definately an interesting topic. There are so many theories... I personally think that some big religious event will happen (return of jesus, final battle of good and evil, etc.) As I said in the other 2012 thread, even if there isn't some big apocolyptic thing their will be the alignment of the sun with the center of the galaxy. This only happens every twenty-six thousand years. Just remember how lucky you are to be around at the time.

Mr. K

eh? Is that true? Well then, um *puts the Big Mac down* [Actually I like Woppers but Whatever] I'll remember that. I mean I always thought you needed more engery to move, but not more food, and you know since fat is engery stored. I figure I could live off it.

I was having a science moment gone bad theory. Thank you for the correction.

Ahh thank you~! I hope I am there for it too.

What will happen 2012?..
I don't think it's happen more than usaly...
the earth cant be destroyt, it should break the never ending cycle.
It i never think it will be happening...
In worst case all humans dies. But we will be superseded by another intligent creature that could live in this environment.
Just so the cycle don't breaks.
