2012 : is the world ending? and what happens after that?

[fourboltmain]

Meh, it's about time we got a systematic cleaning I suppose. I'll be watching it from my beach-front condo in Pheonix, Arizona.

As far as the spooky things going on, the Mayan calendar has also been explained by others believing that the once the year 2012 kicks around, the count goes back to zero, kind of like your (older) car rolling over 100,000 miles. So I guess the clock stopping is part of the hype, but nobody tells you that you can replace the batteries.

All I know is that this kind of thing completely ruined my teens as I was too panicky all the time to even live peacefully

I'd rather not think about it, haha. As they say sometimes, ignorance is bliss!

Um..........frankly, choose any year and there will be predictions that it signals the end of the world.

2007, 2018, maybe some Egyptians predicted 2045!

A few years ago I went to Rome, and I remember going into a Catholic church where all of the portraits of the different Pope's hung. Then they had the empty frames of Pope's to-come. I remember that our guide showed us the final frame, and said that "some say that after that last frame is filled, it will be the end of times" (or something to that effect). Anyone know what year that was supposed to be?

I find this all fascinating, though I am a skeptic.

From what I read on the "solar maximums" on that NASA link posted earlier, if that's true then the Northern Lights should be really intense.
Now I know where I'll be at the "end"!

one week before the end of the world I'll go to Ibiza for a happy ending !

After this thread reaches its climax, I'd love it if tFS became breeding ground for doomsday prophets! Would definitely give the fashion world a whole new edge

Ok, I just had a brilliant idea. Lets all sell our houses/cars/valuables and buy the biggest yacht imaginable on December 1, and party in St.Tropez for 21 straight days.

Err I came back on here after ages for a depressing reason, and the first thread that crossed my eyes was this depressing one. In some ways I wish we all knew and we could all be with our friends and families and we could all see it through together. But that'll never happen.

i believe 2012 will be beautiful. human consciousness being raised.. a flooding out of evil.. a better, more intense existance for all.. I guess if you could look at it positive or look at it negative, why not choose the positive?

What a brilliant way to look at it! Thank you! Honestly, I was getting a little freaked out, but I'd much rather take your approach.

Well there goes me showing during fashion week when I complete all my studies.

I remembered when my mother told me, when she was a little child there was a perdiction. The end will arrive in the year 1984. LOL

I can't stand watching the History Channel these days. I've noticed a lot of times, they do these biblical story telling, putting in creationism....blah, blah, blah. And these so-called-scientists on that show aren't really "scientists" if you know what I mean? When you combined "biblical teachings" and "scientists" together, usually they are "creastionists". Creationists are NOT scientists.

Will the Earth spontaneously blow up? Who really knows? My opinion, the Earth will outlast us humans. As for the human race. We will have religious wars. Wars to have more land, wars to have more food, and wars for drinking WATER. That's how I feel the human race will die out, because of human abuse to the earth and to eachother.
