Thank you for saying what I was thinking.
2012 is a good example of why I hate the New Age. Everything is about the fad--and now that 2012 is coming up, people are starting to talk about it.
I also hate the monotheistic cultural school of thought that 2012 must be "the end of the world." Please. Read something about the Mayan calendar before you babble about it.

It would be about right that so much taxpayers money would get blown on the London Olympics and then have the world end a week before or something.
But seriously, isn't the end of the world meant to come when we least expect it? Therefore surely 2011 or 2013 are a better bet? Who cares anyway, because knowing in advance isn't going to mean we can do anything about it! We can't call up Dr Who and have him save us with his sonic screwdriver so why do people obsess about knowing?

The Mayan calander ends in 2012. The Bible states in revealation, that an Antichrist will rise seven years before the end of the world.
There are exactly 2000 years between the birth of Christ and the birth of the antichrist.
The antichrist must start his 3.5 year ministry when he is 30, just as Jesus did when he was 30. This would be around the year 2030.
The end of the world is not 2012 but, some amazing things may begin to happen then.

As tired as I was of hearing about the year 2000 coming. Or June 6/06. Even that movie about the number 23 was enough to cause a fuss. Bunch of twaddle. Personally, I can't wait until 2012, so I can say, "There, nothing happened. Now will you stop?"

wait, where did you hear that? that's the year i graduate!
also on the end of the world topic: there was a person in ancient greece who predicted everything, from pompeii to the everlasting wars that have yet to cease since before B.C. times in Africa and the Middle East. Just saying, he predicted the end of the world. That is the one prediction that many people in the world believe. Ifonly I could find the stupid date. I think it's cool how people are bored and want to have fun or really believe in this stuff. Yes it is interesting to hear, but like you pointed out, it REALLY gets annoying after TEN THOUSAND times of hearing about it. :)

How many times throughout history have we heard it declared that such and such year is the end! It drives me crazy! No one knows what will happen and when it will happen. People should be more concerned with the here and now. And if you do read and believe the bible, it says it will come as a theif in the night (you won't know in advance) so let it go.

The world will NOT end.
What is ending is the political system we now know.
God's new Kingdom, prayed for at Matthew 6; 9,10 will INCLUDE the earth.
(Matthew 6:10) Let your kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also upon earth.
(Psalm 37:29) The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it.
(Ecclesiastes 1:4) A generation is going, and a generation is coming; but the earth is standing even to time indefinite.
(Psalm 104:5) He has founded the earth upon its established places; It will not be made to totter to time indefinite, or forever.

I like re-using my mini list of past "end of the world" prediction dates over & over for a free 2 points. It does get boring though.

Yeah it's getting annoying. People shouldn't believe everything they watch on the National Geographic Channel.
