The Apocalypse

[Shexi King]

So supposedly, the world is going to end on 21 December, 2012.
I would appreciate this thread to be taken seriously, where honest opinions to be valued. And please, not all negative. I want to hear all sides of the story, as im sure a lot of other people do to. because if this is real, which evidence points towards being likely, im sure we would all like to know more about this topic.
The movie, 2012, sparked my curiousity on the subject and i set off to find out what information i could on the subject. i came across 3 main aspects of this doomsday:
* planet X
* mayan calendar
* Great Alignment

Supposedly, there is a Planet X that will come back into our solar system in 2012, and different theories have different destruction plans ahead. all covered here: http://www.instituteforhumancontinuity.org/#/initiatives/earth/education/planetX

the mayan calendar is coming to an end. if anyone can shed any light on that subject and its significance, it would be appreciated.

Finally, the Great Alignment - a subject i comprehend, even if it is a little daunting.
All of the prophecies, all of the predictions concerning the apocalypse, 2012, are all connected with a certain alignment. This is when the sun falls into the gap of Opiuchus, the gap between Sagittarius and Scorpio. It is in this very gap, known as the Dark Rift, that the centre of the milky way galaxy is located. The Great Alignment will occur when the sun rises in perfect alignment with the centre of the galaxy. though like the mayan calendar, the significence of this situation is still unknown.

Also, the bible: revelations 6:12-17. Is this a prediction of what will happen when Planet X comes?

Free to post opinions !!

The Mayan's calendar ends. So. We'll write a new one I guess.
Did you expect them to continue writing it to infinity?
That would really suck for them.

But hey, if they end was nigh, I'd be rather excited about it. I'm not excited.
Hence, the world not going to end.



Oh, hey, maybe all the sagittarius and scorpios in the world will rise up, and kill all the rest of us?

good to see there is nice young people out there.
pause..NOT.

If things aligning with the center of the Milky Way ended life somehow, then we should already be gone.

Mayan Long Count Calendar: They didn't make anything past this because this was the end of one era. If the Mayans had survived to see this, they would have celebrated... and made a new calendar.

Planet X looks like complete bullshit to me, scientists at observatories everywhere would have predicted such a thing. Especially if they can predict the trajectories of asteroids and comets for many more years to come. That and that IHC thing looks stupid as hell.

EDIT: Read the very first paragraph of this wikipedia article.

I think the Mayans ran out of room.

[Tallie]

I've never heard of that 'Great Alignment' stuff.

But, in my opinion, the whole 2012 thing is crap. The world is somehow set to end by SOMEONE'S predictions and conspiracy theories almost every day. There is no point in worrying about it or trying to predict what will happen.

Aw man.
Hey how about this idea: Stop making calendars = save trees. Maybe the Mayans were telling us something afterall! OMFG!

Or not. We will see 2013, and on, however long our days shall last.

neutral The Mayan Long Count calendar isn't made from paper.

Also, here's some information about the whole Long Count 2012 thing. Notice how the Earth has already been through several Bak'tuns.

Okay, it looks like I'm implying that the calendar is on paper, but I'm not. That was my mind working on taking things to left field to make an old topic more interesting for me. Interesting link though.

Ah, I see.

[Elizabeth BEW]

i don't believe in such things. they are as believeable as god exsiting. i think it's something scientists made up to scare us in to changing something. like our ways of living.

[Elegante Noche]

The world ended when Billy Mays die.



Were just living in spare time

[The Hardcore Master]

All these theories are based on guilabitly. The world should have ended now a few million times by these nice conspiracy theorist. It never happened. after 2013 arrives there will be a new prediction.

Also that site just wants to make money of you, they do not give any real sources or anything.

What I do with these idiots is just this.

*points and laughs at the idiots that belief the 2013 crap*
