No, there is no scientifical facts to back this.

This is propaganda. Doomsayers and such.

in 1999 and before, people said the world was gonna end in 2000.

In 2006 and before, people thought that the world was gonna end because it was the 'fixed' 2000 years after Jesus was born.

When hitler started world war II, people thought the world was ending.

When world war I started, people thought the world was gonna end.

It hasn't, and it wont

It's a lot of tabloid bunk that some money[grubbing quacks made a documentary about. Then it was either the Discovery Channel or the History Channel which aired it.

It is nonsense. Even the astronomical alignment which is supposed to signal our doom, isn't going to happen. These people can't even read an ordinary star chart. The sun crosses the galactic equator, about 5 degrees away from the center, every year in December. 2012 will be no different. The Mayans, whose calendar is supposedly the basis for this prediction, didn't predict the end of the world, either. So these people spun this whole idiotic story out of fabricated "evidence."

And evef IF there was some rare alignment, so what? Alignments do absolutely nothing to the earth.

Y'see, people? I TOLD you those Nostradamus ignoramuses would piggy-back onto this thing!

Right on as usual KB.

I just can't get over people like OzDonna who come on here and say 'I think a polar flip is supposed to happen...' and yet they don't seem to have the intelligence to understand how or why.

It gets pretty old to have to explain the truth over and over when people refuse to use the search bar before posting another 2012 question.

It seems that the people who are gullable enough to believe in the false doomsday scenarios are also the ones too lazy to conduct any proper research into what they base their beliefs upon.

But then again, there wouldn't be so many people making money on the topic and making retirement plans for 2013 if there weren't so many suckers out there to buy into what they type on the internet and sell in their books.

Sad.

There are two possible ways for the world to end, neither of which will occur in the near feature, we are talking in billions of years not 4.

Possible ways for earth to end:
1. The sun enters it's death cycle and expands to such a large size that earth first is scorched by high heat, then absorbed completely by the expanding sun.

2. Earth's core is not the most stable thing, if something were to agitate the core by a large enough magnitude the earth could literally fall to pieces by an explosion of the core, or implode by a collapse of the core.

No.

All this is an interpretation based on studies of the Mayan calendar.

According to recent studies 12/21/2012 is when Earth (and most of the solar system as well) will cross the Galactic "equator". For the Mayans this had profound religious significance.

Don't worry, you will wake up 12/22/2012

Live long and prosper!

Yeah right, just like all the retards said the world was going to end in 2000. Personally, I could care less if the world ended in 2012, but it is not happening. The planet has been here for a few billion years and will be here long after we are all dead and humanity as a species is extinct. If I had a dime for every quack who wrongly made a world is going to end prediction, then I could buy Yahoo.

I will guarantee you that the world not end in 2012.

I posted a similar question a few days ago and the general consensus was no. A polar flip is supposed to happen apparently but the last one took 4500 years to happen..apparently, it's all a bit up in the air theoretically but if you search around the net there are people that believe it and if you read too much into it you can manage to scare the pants of yourself :)

Hmm, I really like how theres a big explanation about why you think the world is going to end in 5 years...But i digress... My answer to your query would be that the earth has been around for several billion years and in the grand scheme of things, the chances of its destruction in the next 5 years are rather infinitesimal.
