I have seen alot of posts on here, asking if the world is really going to end in 2012. What if it is? How would you live differently? Would you be angry, depressed, hopeful, joyful?
Would you take care of the world, or say what the heck, we're out of here soon anyway, and start littering? Would you pull your loved ones closer, or decide there is no point in being in a relationship knowing the whole thing will be over in 5 years?
How would this change if you thought there would be no afterlife, VS if you thought there would be an afterlife? Would you see it as a motivation to treat your fellow man better "just in case"?

Have you heard this:
Three guys are playing a board game.
Someone rushes up to them and tells them that the world will end in an hour.
The first guy says: then I shall buy seven prostitutes.
The second guy says: then I shall drink
fine whiskey.
The third guy says: then I shall finish the game.
Thats my answer: I shall finish the game.

Tomorrow is not guaranteed to anyone much less the end of your active day today. Personally and as a Christian I agree with Nana to live "as if I live as though this was the first day of my life and also the last day of my life. If the world should end tomorrow , I am where I am supposed to be...ready."
No need for me to change a thing at this point. Have a good day.

Noone really knows what day the Lord will return to take us home, those of us that stand for Him, love Him, and love Him enough to obey Him. But, God tells us certain things to llook for and know it is soon. If we know His word, then we see that most of this is already here,so it cant be long. Doesnt even matter if its two years away. Cuz, we dont know. God says we must chose Him before we die or He comes again. So even if He didnt come for two years, what if you die five minutes from now, then you time is up...... Dont put off deceiding for the Lord today, as in five minutes it could be your time to go and its too late then. Quit worrying about when the end is. Worry when your end could suddenly be and choose Jesus today.
I always ask athiests, WHAT IF YOU ARE WRONG< YOU GO TO HELL. If a Christian were wrong, they just die. You have nothing to lose by just checking out God and the Bible. Its like a huge jigsaw puzzle that fits together one little piece at a time, to form a glorious picture of GOds plan for us. It something seems to contract, its cuz you are still missing another piece that fits with that. We will be learning till Jesus comes, if we start studyign and praying and letting ONly God tell us what truth is. I dont just beieve to be saved, tho that is a good thing. I believe as God has begun to show me things many years ago, cuz of the blind faith I had. I just KNEW. Too many things when we open our eyes and remove the binders, just fit, even before I read the Bible. I saw what happens to ppl who live in a certain way, and those that live the other have other things happening. and it all just fits with what God tells us will go down. If we want to go Up, we better know God and His word today. Tomorrow could be too late.

I would do a lot of things I've never done or been scared to do. I would be happy that all the horrible people I don't like are going to bite the bullet. Even if I'm scarified for that beautiful day to arrive.

the Mayan calendar will end in 2012. the world will change after 2012, but not end, although the world as we know it will end. I dont care what happens to this planet, i think its a waste of space, and so are the morons that think theyre going to heaven because theyre christian........

Yes I do.
Never.
2012 is the end of the Mayan calender, but there are those out there whom feel that is more then that.
The funny thing is that our calender is off by seven years from all the ancient calenders.
