Question

Who belives this and why or why not

Answer 1

People believe this becuase the first calander ever documented in history was the Mayan calander and it recorded all the days up to december 2012 why? no one knows maybe it is just the end of another zodiac cycle maybe the "gods" will return from nibiru (planet X) , Which was recorded in all the ancient text dechiphered, they knew about all the planets in our solar system and even the tenth planet we are just realising exsists almost 2000 years later read up on the ancient astroughnats theory by stichin, or read gods of the new mellenium by alan F alford , as for the world ending i dont believe it will be this exact date but i think after the atom bomb was created this world isnt to far from destruction

Answer 2

The world is not ending in 2012... actually, it is supposed to enter a new beginning... the official beginning of the "new age"... or the "age of aquarius". This process started back in the 1960s. It takes like 50 years for the real energy of an "age" to kick in after it begins entry.

The reason people consider it an "ending" is that the old systems are breaking down... everything... the money system, the economy, the governments, standardized religions... anything that is not sustainable is currently going downhill fast. Check the news if you don't believe me.

2012 is the closest year calculated by the Mayan calendar... but the truth is, since there have been so many restarts of the Gregorian calendar that we currently use, we could be closer to 2012 than we realize.

Answer 3

No one that I know of thinks that the world will end in 2012. The Mayans didn't either. They said that it was a change in time periods, a new age. That's all. I am a Christian and I can tell you for certain, the world will not end any time soon. The prophesies are not even going there. We haven't been through the Great Tribulation yet, and that lasts 7 years. So 2012 MIGHT be pointing to that time.

Answer 4

I don't believe the world will end- but that things will change and the earth and it's inhabitants will be different. I'd like to think it will happen in 2012- heck- the sooner the better. But the fact remains, we don't know, and guessing doesn't get us anywhere. Might not be bad to live as if the end were coming tomorrow- and live as if it had a million years left- It would sure help us make better choices.

Answer 5

All those products approximately 2012 is by using the fact the Mayan calendar (truthfully an overlapping device of three calendars) includes an end at that element. on the same time as the Maya have been very stepped forward in many distinctive factors, i think of that in the event that they have been so adept at prediction they might probable have fared extra applicable against the spanish.

Answer 6

2012 is sometimes claimed to be a great year of spiritual transformation (or apocalypse). Many esoteric sources interpret the completion of the thirteenth B'ak'tun cycle in the Long Count of the Maya calendar (which occurs on December 21 by the most widely held correlation) to mean there will be a major change in world order.

Accordingly, several eclectic authors claim that a major, world-changing event will take place in 2012:

The 1995 book The Mayan Prophecies linked the Maya calendar with long-period sunspot cycles.
The book 2012: Mayan Year of Destiny claims the Maya may have been instructed in their wisdom by disembodied entities from Orion and the Pleiades. Contact was maintained through shamanic rituals conducted in accordance with the movements of planets and stars. However, some Mayan priests living and working in Guatemala assert that there is no legitimacy to this theory.
The 1997 book The Bible Code claims that, according to certain algorithms of the Bible code, a meteor, asteroid or comet will collide with the Earth.
The book The Nostradamus Code speaks of a series of natural disasters caused by a comet (possibly as above) that will allow the third Antichrist to disperse his troops around the globe under the guise of aid in preparation for a possible nuclear war, although in the strictest sense it is unspecific as to nuclear war or some other natural or man caused destruction.
The book The Orion Prophecy claims that the Earth's magnetic field will reverse.
The 2005 book Beyond 2012: Catastrophe or Ecstasy by Geoff Stray reviews several theories, prophecies and predictions concerning 2012 and finds where authors have used faulty information or have bent the truth to fit their theories.
The 2006 book 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl by Daniel Pinchbeck discusses theories of a possible global awakening to psychic connection by the year 2012, creating a noosphere.
The 2007 book Apocalypse 2012: A Scientific Investigation into Civilization's End by Lawrence Joseph does not make any specific new predictions, but it reviews a number of 2012 predictions made by various sources, and presents arguments for the possible existence of dangerous positive feedback loops involving solar storms, Earth's magnetic field, cosmic rays, hurricanes, global warming, earthquakes, and supervolcanoes that may be on the verge of erupting.
Other prophecies and apocalyptic writings and hypotheses for this year include:

Terence McKenna's mathematical novelty theory suggests a point of singularity in which humankind will go through a great shift in consciousness.
Some proponents of a peak oil catastrophe place major events in 2012. Richard C. Duncan's book The Peak of World Oil Production and the Road To The Olduvai Gorge claims that the Olduvai cliff will begin and permanent blackouts will occur worldwide. Several studies predict a peak in oil production in or around 2012. [13][14][15]
Some alien-enthusiasts (e.g. Riley Martin), along with some new-agers, believe 2012 to correspond approximately with the return of alien "watchers" or "caretakers" who might have helped the first human civilizations with developing their technology and may have been waiting for us to reach a higher level of technological and/or social advancement. Beliefs range from the extra-terrestrials having benevolent purposes — such as to help human society evolve — to malevolent purposes — such as enslavement of mankind and/or manipulation.
There is a Hindu following indicating the appearance of an Avatar (God in human form) with God-like powers who will herald a new age. A website to this effect appears at: End of the World 2012

Answer 7

Something is going to happen in 2012, I don't think is the end of the world but some deep Sh!t is going to get down. It would be either a great enlightenment or a great screwed. Lets all just hope for the former.

Answer 8

No! The Aztecs may have predicted this, saying that it will happen on Christmas eve (they didn't know) , but that dosen't mean that they're right! Why would it end? The, I don't know, fourth stage of the earth cycles? We will not die of earthquakes. We have much more technology then they did at the time, and they got smushed by the conquistadors! They weren't advanced enough to predict their own demise, so why should be believe them about ours?

Answer 9

The world has been ending for over a thousand years. I can't even begin to name all of the years in which people have freaked over the end of the world. And yet, here we are, still turning on this great, big, mysterious blue marble. Don't concern yourself with it. If it happens it happens and there isn't much we can do about it.

Answer 10

You refer to the Mayan calendar that suddenly ends December of 2012 for no reason. Now, does it mean end of the world or end of our way of life? Who knows.
