Do you believe there's even a slight possibility of catastrophe on 21/12/12

[Ezekiel 25:17]

Private poll, to give a genuine result, does anyone on this site openly or privately admit they fear this date and think there's a chance something may happen ?? clearly you will all start queueing now to profess how it's nonsense and hilarious anyone would think so etc but where's the fun in that ??

 

well...

[Pony Princess]

Skeletal frozen Nazi aliens from the dark side of the moon.

 

Illuminati.

 

Aliens.

 

Universal reset button.

 

Skellingtons.

 

So many choices.

[cochyn]

I was listening to some of that rock n' roll music earlier. Which is a bit like Shakey. Given this obvious synchronicity, something could happen. Or it won't. In my opinion.

 

 

What was the question?

Exciting stuff, any more for any more ??

[lifetime fan]

My works Christmas do, it could be Armageddon.

[Jim MM]

It is not just Mayans, there are indications from several sources that this date is going to bring a whole heap of suffering. I'm quite concerned.

[Whelan]

Nailed on!

 

I've just called my boss a snivelling little cunt in preparation.

[Fowlers God]

Did you actually mean the 21/12? Or todays date of the 12/12. Is this a RiS up?

No I meant the 21/12, todays date has no releavance to anything.

[Magic Sponge]

I find it interesting that cultures from all around the world have a similar prediction of things turning pretty shit.

 

The Real 2012 Prophecy: Mayans, Nostradamus, and Planet X, Oh My!1

by Rich Deem

 

Introduction

The year 2012 is supposed to result in a slew of natural disasters culminating in the end of the world (as we know it, or think we know it, as the case may be). We know this prediction is true because a bunch of savage, child sacrificing, jungle-dwelling Mayans2 prophesied it hundreds of years ago through their amazingly accurate calendar. Never mind that the date for Armageddon was originally set as December 24, 2011. We now know that these events will occur at exactly 11:11 GMT on December 21 2012, even though some Mayan predictions go all the way to 4772 A.D.3 Those Mayans really knew everything about astronomy, since their calendar consisted of 260-day periods, which we now know represents the true length of the solar year! According to the Mayan calendar, the "Great Cycle" equates with 5,125.36 years, which began on August 11, 3114 B.C. and ends in 2012. Unfortunately for the Maya (but maybe fortunately for us), they ended before their calendar.

 

Other prophesiers

The Maya were not the only people to predict the end of the world. Incan and Egyptian calendars, as well as with the prophecies of Nostradamus, Edgar Cayce (famous for predicting from 1958-1998 that a tilting of the Earth's axis would result in "The earth will be broken up in the western portion of America. The greater portion of Japan must go into the sea."), and the I Ching, Hopi Indians, along with a slew of wackos have indicated that the apocalypse will occur in December 2012. Nostradamus predicted a great comet, Nibiru, would impact the Mediterranean on December 21, 2012 (or was it the year 1999? - close enough!).

 

Natural disasters

Not content with just one disaster at a time, 2012 will unleash the ultimate disaster movie - earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, tsunamis, floods, and droughts (at the same time and place!). These events are thought to be caused by a polar shift, enormous asteroids, violent solar activity (never mind that the Sun is now at its most quiet phase in recorded history), the emergence of Planet X or Nibiru, and the planetary alignment of Venus. Never mind that the next Venetian alignment is actually, on June 5-6, 2012, and that the alignment will produce a gravitational interaction on the order of your neighbor's Toaster Strudel. This is real science, man! The other probable causes of these disasters relate to the earth's precession, a 26,000 year cycle that just happens to coincide with the 12/21/2012 date (how it coincides we aren't sure, but we want to throw it in so that nothing is left out). In addition, our Solar System crosses in and out of the galactic plane every 33 million years. Coincidentally, the Sun will be at the exact center of the galactic plane on December 21, 2012 (or maybe it already happened 3 million years ago - but who's counting). At the same time, there will be a massive pole shift caused by the galactic alignment between the center of the galaxy and the Sun that will cause massive earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis. What fun!

 

Government conspiracy

The really bad thing about 2012 is that the government knows everything about what is going to happen and they are keeping it from you. When Barack Obama talked about change, he wasn't kidding! In fact, they have set up a secret organization, including a secret website, the Institute for Human Continuity, to promote the continued survival of the human species after December 21, 2012. Among other things, the Institute is conducting a lottery to determine which humans will be selected to inhabit the subterranean cities in their "Operation Safe Haven." Surprisingly, the Institute has been operating since 1978, when they held their first Summit in in Timaru, New Zealand. You best get aboard while you can. Don't wait until 2012! If the links don't work, then I guess you were too late (or Sony pulled the movie site after they released the DVD version of their movie).

 

The real 2012 prophecy

Conspiracy?

In case you didn't get it, this page is satire. The "government conspiracy" websites are really a product of Sony Pictures to promote their movie. Some of my readers made me put in this disclaimer, since they didn't think that some of you could figure this out on your own. They just wanted to ruin all my fun!

 

Rich Deem

Since everybody else is making 2012 predictions, I thought I would throw mine into the mix. And here it is... The 2012 disasters are such good violence and mayhem that they would make the ultimate disaster movie. Hey, somebody needs to make a lot of money by taking from the ignorant interested people. Authors will write books and studios will make movies and the con artists will make lots of money--just like the good old days of Y2K.

 

Prepare for 2012!

There isn't much that one could do to prepare for the end of the world. Of course, if you really believe the world is going to end, then you won't be needing your money. So, you could send it to me. Alternatively, you could follow the advice Jesus gave to the rich young ruler (Matthew 19:21).

 

Conclusion

Yes, there will be earthquakes, volcanoes, floods and droughts in 2012, just as there are in every year. My 2012 prediction is that scammers will make a lot of money off gullible astute people. Now, if I could only figure out how to use that Parmesan Chicken with Pasta Rags recipe from my GE newsletter in my new GE Dishwasher. Don't miss our page devoted to Nostradamus:

[Karl_b]

No.

[md1892]

No, but the poles are due to reverse/swap anytime soon, there is empirical evidence that this occurs every 20,000 years or so.

 

Whether that will cause any issues is up for debate.

 

Also Yellowstone is overdue to blow, and that is an extinction level catastrophe

[Spy Bee]

Should have been last year, the Mayan's didn't account for leap years.

[Dan]

No

[magicrat]

I want to know who the 2 people are that think some catastrophe is about to happen !

[Dan]

Our alien overlords wouldnt allow it, this is all just one big game of the sims is this earth.

[Chocoholic]

I'll tell you tomorrow.

Only when Ris sets them up.

According to NASA a magnetic reversal is unlikely to happen in the next few millennia and would pose no harm to the human race if it did.

[moof]

Also the Mayan calendar does not cease to exist on 21st December 2012. Just like our calendar doesn't cease to exist on December 31st. We just start a new cycle.

[llego]

Dunno if this covered above but its not actually the end of their calender, just a cyclical reset of eras. Next up is a great dawn or sumfink

 

Edit hmmm i see it is covered above

[Chairman Meow]

I've got an Astra booked in for an MOT on the 21st, I suspect that will be a catastrophe.

[Acid]

I've heard it's not even the end of the mayan calendar... just like, time to start again sort of thing.

[Spy Bee]

It's the age of Aquarius next, I hope that doesn't last too long because I'm a Pisces.
