Highly doubt the world will end, but the people who think it will end Dec. 21, 2012 may be something we have to worry about. There is nothing more terrifying than human stupidity. Add a fear factor in there and humans will begin to act like animals.

Who cares if it does end? I mean really, what ya gunna do about it? Write a strong letter of complaint to someone? Protest? Sue the solar system?
I am 99.9% certain it won't end next year. But even so, I'm living each day like it may do at any moment.

The Mayan Calendar was miscalculated by 200 years.

The Polar Switches has never led to a mass extinction.. EVER.

Biblical stories of the ending and the apocalypse have always shown MANY dates and times when the world should be doomed, the next being May 21st.


Any others? :headscratch:


Yea, the plants lineup that is to occur on that day, NASA said that they did a lot of calculations and program it all in a software.  They found that never in the year 2012 will that happen.

There are a fair number of folks around here who, I am certain, would immediately try to post a "I can't believe Aces High sucks so bad that the servers won't stay up through one little apocalypse!  I'm going to quit if it isn't fixed to my liking wihtin 15 days!" thread.

The notion that the alignment of the planets will screw everything up is just so ridiculous that I can't even entertain it. Your car has a bigger effect on you RIGHT NOW than all of the planets would if they were perfectly aligned. It's the sort of conjecture that makes me hate MOVIES let alone anything real.

Plus, 2012 is the "end" of the mayan calandar in the same way that "999" is the last year. So, <shrugs> personally I don't think it will happen, but I also don't worry about it either.

Hmmmm!
2012 Nostradamus predictions have gained a lot of popularity, firstly because the year is coming closer and secondly his predictions seem to match predictions from other sources like the bible, Mayan and Gnostic texts and so on. You must also keep in mind that Nostradamus predictions are never clear cut and he writes symbolically and hence different people interpret these symbols in various ways. Although this is the case, many of his predictions have been interpreted correctly regarding the second world war, Hitler and so on. This makes 2012 Nostradamus predictions even more interesting to read as most people feel that they can be highly accurate.

Nostradamus Theory

2012 Nostradamus predictions paint a bleak picture of massive destruction and havoc brought about by a comet. It is not clear whether this comet will strike the earth or will pass very close to our planet, causing massive earthquakes and other cataclysmic occurrences. But all interpreters of his quatrains are united on the opinion that it will be a comet which will come somewhere in December 2012. Nostradamus writes in one of his quatrains – “In the sky will be seen a great fire dragging a trail of sparks”. This line clearly suggest a comet and many are of the opinion that it will be very big in size. Certain interpreters put the size to be just a little less than the planet Jupiter, and if such a comet passes close to the earth the effect of its gravity will cause the oceans to rise and also give rise to earthquakes.

Another theory is that the even though the comet will pass close to the earth it might cause an asteroid to shift course and impact the earth. Such an impact will be the size of several atomic bombs and will cause massive destruction. Some predict that the superpowers of the world will send atomic missiles to break this asteroid in space, but still there will be a shower of hail and fire from its fragments.

For 2012 Nostradamus also suggest that because of the massive destruction caused by the comet there will be widespread anarchy and certain nations can take advantage and plunge the world into a third World War. One of the quatrains says – “King of terror shall come from the sky. He will bring to life the King of Mongols.” This line has been interpreted that after the coming of the comet China will gain prominence and might start attacking countries to gain supremacy.

2012 Nostradamus predictions also gives an indication of the fate of certain nations, and how long the comet will be seen in the skies. He mentions – “The Great Star will blaze for Seven days” meaning the comet will be very near the earth for seven days and nights. Further he says – “The Huge dog will howl at night, when the great pontiff will change lands”. The great dog is taken to be the United Kingdom by many interpreters, and the line suggests its destruction. The pontiff is taken to be the pope and hence Rome too will be destroyed.

In regards to Hitler and the second world war, if he was in some sort of psychic trance, predicting things etc., Why say Hister? If he had knowledge of what was going to happen, why not just say Hitler?

Just like any of the other secret codes, they remain vague.

I think the only significant data from any scientists is that the polar flip of the suns poles will unleash radiation that will knock out our electrical grid.  None have said that it would be permanently knocked out.  That is supposed to happen in the year 2012.
They call it "common sense", then why is it so uncommon?

It's true.

Considering that someone dies every 5 seconds on the planet, it WILL be the end of the world for many.
