Question

do you really think the world will end on december 21 2012?

Answer 1

Only 5th graders and Level One accounts believe that anything bad will happen in 2012. They both watch too much TV. Oh, the halcyon days of my youth when all that was on was reruns of "Gilligan's Island". Okay, so Gilligan was an idiot. Sure, no argument there, but the Professor was actually looked up to. He was a smart man and he had the answers. How to make a radio from two coconuts and Gilligan's hat? Ask the Professor.



These days, no one wants to know the answers. They still ask the questions, but when someone smart tells them "no, that couldn't possibly happen" they ignore it and keep on asking "Where do you see Nibiru in the sky at night?"



Intelligence has lost its cachet.

Answer 2

Maybe or Maybe not.



Every ancient civilization from the ancient Egyptians all the way to the Native American Hopi tribe of the southwest. All believed that the world was going to end in the year 2012.



But it was the Mayans were the ones who predicted down to the month, day, and year that it was going to happen.



There are two reasons for that and here they are:



1. December 21, 2012 is the official start of winter or other wise known as the winter solstice which is the shortest day of the year. The Mayans believed that during a solstice the Sun and the moon line up in a perfect line. But they predicted though on December 21, 2012 all the planets in our galaxy will line up and they believe that opens the door to the underworld and a dark serpent will be released onto the world. Christians, Jews, and Muslims all call this guy Satan.



2. The year 2012 is when the last Super Volcano had ever erupted. And that was starting in the year 2012 was 75,000.



Super Volcanic Eruptions are super rare they only happen every few hundred thousand years. 65,000 years ago on the island of Sumatra in Indonesia the super volcano that we know call Lake Toba erupted with so much force that it leveled forests all the way in India and made global temperatures drop 21 degrees and almost made the human race go exitinct.

Answer 3

The sad part about all the 2012 uproar is that so many of its components are recycled. Just about any of the astronomical "catastrophes" have been the subjects of warnings before this. The likelihood of any of those occurring is 0.



The only thing new that is brought to the table is the Mayan long-count calendar. The turnover of the longest component of that calendar is about as important as New Year's Eve. All it says is the current cycle end and a new cycle begins, period, end of story.



So what will happen? The world will go on. A lot of worried people will feel stupid. A lot of stories will run about the big anti-climax, for about a week or so. And the main hoaxers, will quietly slip out of sight, to reappear in a few years for the "next end-of-the-world" scenario, likely 2029-2033: the 2000th anniversary of the Crucifixion (year depending which chronology you accept).

Answer 4

No, it won't. The claimed 2012 doomsday is a hoax. Everything the scam artists are saying about 2012 is a pack of lies.



The movie 2012 consists of unscientific BS that had been invented for the 2003 end of the world. It is fiction, and not even good fiction.



The Mayan calendar doesn't end, it just recycles. The Maya didn't predict anything for 2012. They didn’t make prophecies and the end of one cycle and start of another was an event to celebrate.



The people talking about all the signs of the end times happening now don’t realize that they have been happening throughout history.



The History Channel doomsday schlockumentary consists of lies, half truths, and wild speculation.

There were no ancient prophecies concerning 2012. Nostradamus never mentioned it. No one predicted it before the hoaxers started claiming it. This was after their 2003 doomsday failed to occur on schedule and they needed to keep selling their books and assorted doomsday garbage.



None of it is said or supported by scientists.



All the claimed astronomical events are either impossible or have no effect on us.



The Solar maximum is now expected to occur in May 2013 and to be less energetic than average. It could interfere with electronics and communications.



We aren't going to have any alignments aside from the apparent alignment that occurs every year at the December solstice.



Geomagnetic reversal (polar reversal) takes hundreds to thousands of years to occur. We wouldn’t even feel it happening.



Nibiru doesn't exist. It came from Z. Sitchen's misinterpretation of ancient Sumerian references to the planet Jupiter. Even Sitchen didn't claim it would come back in 2012 (he said 2085). Nancy Lieder, who hears aliens in her head and originally said her "Planet X" would be here in 2003) took over Sitchen's imaginary planet and changed her doomsday date to 2012 when her original prediction failed.



That covers most of the absurd claims. The world will still be here after 2012, along with most of us.

Answer 5

There's not a single scrap of scientific evidence behind any of it. It's been invented by crackpots and exploited by con artists trying to make a fast buck out of gullible people by selling them books, survival kits and other useless junk.

There will be no pole shift, Planet X/Nibiru, deadly solar storm, rare alignment, photon belt nor any other of the made-up nonsense. It's just a heap of garbage.

@ Emily

Dear oh dear! Talk about Chinese whispers.

No ancient civilisation predicted 2012. Not even the Mayans. This has all been made up by the cranks trying to lend some credibility to their ridiculous predictions.

The solstice has got nothing to do with the Moon.

All the planets in our galaxy will line up? What all 1,000,000,000,000 of them?
