2012

It's not going to end. What scientific evidence is there that the world will end in 2012?
 
I think if people put their minds to it, they can make any thing seem like it could happen.

Y2K was really going to happen too. Remember?

Here is a nice list of failed dooms day predictions:

Here is a blog posting someone wrote about why we shouldn't be scared of it:

Just like anyone could post endless amounts of propaganda to scare people, there is probably just as many people who can argue against it.



If you think you are going to die in 2012 then why are you all still in school? Why do you have jobs? Why are you here on this forum? Why do you continue to life your life as normal? If you really thought you were going to die in a couple years, wouldn't you just end it all right now so you don't have to face all the death and destruction and suffering? Or better yet, wouldn't you be living life on the edge, taking extreme risks and doing crazy stuff because it doesn't matter if you were going to die anyways...
 
I don't think the world is going to end. It hasn't before when people said it will and it wont in 2012.
 
It's not going to end. 2012 already happened on the Mayan calendar...

I know that lol

We just studied it in Advanced Placement World History.
 
You know what happens after the end of the Mayan cycle (specifically in 2012)? A new one begins. If there were any ancient mayans around today, they would tell you the same thing.
 
The world could end now, later today, even tomorrow, but no one can predict that on 2012 the world will end. I understand they have a movie about it, and I'll be the last to watch it. I'll rent a copy when it is 2012 and nothing happens. I'm not saying the world won't end in 2012, because I believe it could end any day, time, or year, but I highly doubt it will end then.
 
I think the movie will be good. Its made by the guy who made independence day and some others...
 
Knowing how people react to all the bullshit they hear, they would acted on this 2012 thing by now. Anyone do any research or even remember how it was when the scientists warned the world about Y2K? Supermarkets sure made a lot of money...
 
Every last forum I've ever been on seems to have this topic, and my answer still stands. I really don't think 2012 will be the end at all. It seems like every so many years they keep making the same predictions and it hasn't happened yet! Like Smooth said, maybe one day it will happen, but not now, that's for sure!
 
Now, I believe there might be major weather that the world never has seen before in 2012, and more history being made during that time. But not the end of the complete world. Now when I read it at the part where it says.



Solar experts from all over the planet monitoring the sun have completed an astonishing finding. Our sun is in a crumb of conflict. The power production of the sun is, like the majority of things in environment, recurring and it is theoretical to be in the central point of a era of comparative constancy. On the other hand, recent solar storms have been bombarding the planet with bunch of emission energy. It is been knocking out power grids as well as destroying satellites. This action is predicted to get bad and calculations suggest it will arrive at its fatal peak for a while in 2012.



Part I put in bold, it might take out all the satellites in the world maybe. When you watch the news about Iran getting nukes, they might just be waiting for the day to use them on america, and other countries. Also cause a 3rd world war. But thats my opinion thats all going to happen during 2012, but not a ending of the world, just another world war.
 
..I thought the world was supposed to end in 2000?



or in 1919: Meteorologist Albert Porta predicted that the conjunction of 6 planets would generate a magnetic current that would cause the sun to explode and engulf the earth on DEC-17.



or..William Miller in the 1840's..



Or.. Like 100 other times listed here.

The prophesize the end of the world every six years or so and it hasn't happened yet..

So I don't believe the the world's going to end in 2012.

Exactly. All just a bunch of..
 
Honestly, I find the whole idea that we're going to die in 2012 pure stupidity. We were also supposed to die on 06/06/06, and what about Y2K?



A bunch of crackpots developed this theory to scare people, just because a calendar is ending. Even after 2012 is over and the theory dies, more theories will be developed.



It's a neverending cycle of lies and those who believe these lies are gullible and stupid.
