2012 theories
Posted: Sat Jan 08, 2011 9:36 am
Okay, this is something that I want to discuss with some people.
It is currently January of 2011 and most people have heard of the Mayan Calender predicting the apocalypse in December of 2012. Some people out there actually believe that this is true but thankfully to my knowledge this number seems to be decreasing.
I don't think the world is going to end in 2012 and I will explain my reasons. The Mayans calender does not actually state that the world will end in 2012, that's just when the calender ends. The calender on your wall ends on December 31st, does that mean that's when the world is going to end on that day? No, that just means that the year is ending and a new one is starting. Maybe they just decided to stop the calender after 500 years.
But that's just a theory Also keep in mind, yes the Mayans understood astronomy to an insane degree. But every time there was a solar eclipse they would sacrifice their virgins because they thought the eclipse was a dragon swallowing the sun.
Now, what I think the #1 thing we need to worry about is the people that think the world is going to end. People will probably be rioting and throwing rocks into windows and looting. So I think we should stock up on food, guns and ammo, and barricade our houses to protect your property. The biggest threat in 2012 is ignorance in my opinion.
People have been trying to predict the end of the world since the human race began. If any of those predictions were right then you wouldn't be reading this right now.
So what makes you think that this prediction will be correct if the several predictions before were incorrect?
I'm curious to hear from other people on this. If this topic is too sensitive to discuss I understand if this thread gets removed.
