This thread got 2 in a few hours... Wow.

So basically the 2012 calender ends since the Mayan's say so. That thing Ferrari said was funny, the egyptians said that it also ends in 2012 but they also said that the brain does nothing. Siggy material!

Other than that, reading this stuff makes me feel better. All the people contradicting the Mayan's beliefs and crap. I think I might keep this to make me feel better whenever I think about the end of the world.

 

[ENDscape]

Just wait until then. We'll see who's right and wrong.

I don't believe it. The Mayan way, anyway. I'm also Catholic, and yeah, maybe the 2nd judgement will come, but don't stress about it! Just live your life. Have fun. Be close to those whom you love, and cherish their lives. It's all about being happy. Build something in your backyard, I don't know. Just be content. =]

That's what all my Catholic friends tell me too.

By the way, I used to play viola too, until I got to High School. It wasn't that fun

Sorry again for the off topic, but then you're not "catholic". People speak of religion as if they were talking of football teams. If you're Catholic, then it isn't all about "happiness", in fact, it's much about disgrace and the hope that it'll be better once you've passed away from this misserable life on Earth. I am not Catholic as such, but I live in a truly Catholic country and know what I'm talking about.

It's not that I want to tell you you don't believe on God or any such crap, but... really, why don't you ever decide what you are by what you do and truly believe instead of doing something and then wondering whether you've done right or not because you're muslim, catholic or a member of the Pokemon Church. It's like you feel happy for Brazil winning the soccer world cup, then suddenly realizing you're from Portugal.

Ok, sorry for the "rant" (just my opinion).

On topic again: agree with many of the possible answers on the issue that some of the users have given about why the calendar ends in 2012. Anyway, imagine some outer civilization invaded us. Imagine they went to the main printing press and found that there aren't calendars any "foreseeing" than 2040... Well, it wouldn't make much sense to me if they said: OMGZ0RZ THE EARTH ENDS IN 31 YEARS!!!!

 

[zeromac]

Lol are you all fear mongering that the mayans, a now ancient civilisation almost extinct now, will say that 2012 will be the day the world ends..

This is just like last year, If any of you heard in 2008 they tried to ram 2 atoms together to form antimatter i think they did so in this long long circler tube and EVERYONE thought it would create a black hole and suck up the earth so everyone was pissing there pants on that day! But the truth is that it could create a black hole! but here is where douche bags got it wrong: it could create a black hole, but only one that could just power a small lightbulb so everyone was shitting their pants for nothing, just like this mayan thing and 2012

You know.
Even if the world isn't gonna end on Dec 21 2012.
A LOT of people are still gonna die.

No cataclysm will happen and btw many people die everyday from non cataclysmic causes (disease, murder, suicide, old age, etc.).

 

[vergilite]

WOW this thread sure is popular i guess a lot of people of there opinions on this topic

 

[Golfman560]

So basically the 2012 calender ends since the Mayan's say so.

Their calender doesn't end! A cycle of it is completed, one out of many cycles. Just because a damn cycle ends doesn't mean that world will implode. What happens after our calenders run out? They end each year on New Years, yet we are smart and just continue the cycle. 2012 moves to 2013, same goes for the Mayan calender.

I think I'm going to shoot myself on December 21 2012 because I will have realized how retarded people have become and that I don't want to live being the smartest person in the world.

I'm actually a mix of Portuguese and Brazilian, so I can root for either if I like.

 

[DeadLocked]

Here's the deal.

Guy does weed. Guy goes on holiday. Visits mayan temple. Sees calendar tablet thingy.
"ZOMGAH this is trippy, dis fing only liek goes up to 2012 aight, end of da world duuuuuude innit"
goes to 4chan and writes Meme about how he thinks the calendar predicts the end of the world

This is how most stuff originates XD XD XD

 

[Splych]

Oohh... Damnit. So basically they just finished one cycle. I seriously wonder how people will react after 2012 in December. When 2013 comes. If we all live, everyone will just be alive, just like any other time realizing that a lot of us were just being retarded. I think I might just spend that day like any other day. Sitting on the computer at GBAtemp ^^

No cataclysm will happen and btw many people die everyday from non cataclysmic causes (disease, murder, suicide, old age, etc.).

No, i mean theirs going to be ALOT bank robberies and and murders and riots due to the fact that everyone think is going to end in 2-3 days.

There are many different theories about the 2012 "end of the world".

1)
The Mayans never said it will be the end of the world.
It's just the end of the actual era (the 5th one from the Mayan calendar).

Their eras are called "sun".
They believed there were 5 big time cycles (or 5 suns). after the 5th one ends, we will go back to the 1st sun. (Even if I found "Mayans seventh sun cycle" on a website)
The suns are divided by 4000 years each (more or less).
Since humanity exists, there were 4 end cycles, so we are now in the 5th cycle "since the beginning of humanity", not since the beginning of the world.


I found a french site, I translate it a little here :
(sorry if I chose the wrong words)
http://www.dinosoria.com/calendrier_maya.htm

" The first sun, Matlactli Atl : 4 008 years. At this time giants lived. The first sun was destroy by water.
all Humans transformed into fish but one couple who gave birth to humanity again.

" The second sun, Ehecoatl : 4 010 years. This sun was destroy by Ehecoatl (The wind snake) and humans were changed in monkeys.
A man and a woman was saved from destruction"

" The third sun, Tleyquiyahuillo : 4 081 years. This sun was destroy by fire. Humans descendant from the second sun's survivor couple, ate a fruit named tzincoacoc ..."

" The fourth sun, Tzontlilic : 5 026 years. Humans died of hungry after a fire and blood disaster."

I never found what the Tzincoacoc fruit was, nor what was its effect

Googling it only shows many site with the text above.



2)
- Next, there's this astral plan crossing with our Milky way, each 33 million years.
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syst%C3%A8me_solaire#Futur
(not said in english page)

3)
The earth magnetic pole are changing every 250 000 years (medium value, sometime very short, sometime almost 1 million years), but the last one occurred 750 000 years ago.
it may be time to change. But I don't know the process speed. it may take hundreds of years.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomagnetic_reversal


4)
And finally, anyone watched anime's Lain ?
It speak about the Schumann Resonance.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schumann_resonances
See the french one for pictures :
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%A9sonances_de_Schumann

It's the earth frequencies changing gradually, to finally be in resonance with the human's frequencies (8hz) in 2012.

Lain anime was based on this frequencies to receive/transmit data from brain to brain without a wired connection (a wifi like internet).

Again, the Earth don't have only 1 Schumann frequencies, and nothing is happening to us.
The main frequencies is at 7.83 Hz (in 2004), and is growing slowly.
It's said that it will affect our brain when this frequencies will be from 8 to 11 Hz (the one from the Alpha frequencies the brain emit when we are in paradoxal sleep state)

Could it explain why a lot of people have ESP power like seeing ghost, telepathy, etc? They are often categorized as Schizophrenic because they hear voices or see things the doctor don't.



5)
Thanks to Smartpal (next post), I forgot this one

It's the end of the Kali yuga.
The Indian/Hinduism era, which is 2 400 years long each.
(I need more reading to understand it, there seems to be 2 Kali Yuga timing)

6)
based on the earth's axe orientation on the celestial map. We are exiting the fish zone to enter into the virgo one.
It's meant to be a pure water era. (I don't think our water is really pure with all those pollution the humans are doing)
