I think this is all that needs to be stated.

For the sake of not trolling this thread, I'll add my two cents to the bucket.

In my opinion, the only way that the world is going to be damaged beyond repair, is by humans and their antics. Pollution, blah blah blah. Stuff that's already going down. Big ass meteors raining down from space while every natural disaster known to mankind is occuring, seems a bit out there, no?

Besides, the world has already ended plenty of times. We're all just dead and don't know it yet.

I agree with most of this, the world ought to end in 1990, 2000, 2004. And now it's 2012, obviously a hoax. Some people also think that "Comet Elenin" orsomething had passed earth too close which caused the earthquakes in Japan.

While it's known that earthquakes are caused from below Earth.

Why post if you think this is BS, I also think it's BS but I'd like to discuss it. There are some people who DO believe in it you know. I'd like to prove them wrong.

Well, it being my namesake, I guess I should comment. No, I don't think the world will end in 2012, and I don't care about Nibiru and etc. (So I voted "no.")

My interest in 2012 relies on the concept of sacred time, and that history is cyclical instead of linear. The Maya never said that 2012 is the end of the world, and if you go to a modern Mayan shaman they will tell you that the calendar will just start over. And this is what 2012 is all about: it marks the end of the longest time cycle in the Mayan religious calendar; it is the ending of a cosmic Age and the beginning of a new one. It marks a time of change and transformation, not death or some absolute end.

Do I think anything will happen on the winter solstice of 2012? I don't know, but it's fun to hope so. I won't be crushed if nothing interesting happens. Actually, I don't think anything noticeable will happen. Even if the Maya are right, a shift in Ages that run thousands of years isn't likely to be some drastic overnight thing. ...Well, to be fair, Maya myths about the endings of previous Ages are accompanied by cataclysms that wipe out the civilizations of that Age, hehe... But I think it would be a subtle and gradual process running in the background of our consciousness.

The whole 2012 thing doesn't affect my behavior or what I plan to do with my life. If something drastic does happen, well, that'd be fun too. I'd be pretty pissed if anything happens to prevent me from reading the ending of my ongoing favorite manga series, though! XD

If I had a dime for every religious prophecy that has yet to come true. If every single religion/cult in the world had a calender that pointed to this time, I would give it some consideration. The world is more likely to end in the year 2750-3000 CE when the world has been stripped of all its resources, and humans have likely all but left.
