What does everyone think will happen on December 21, 2012? Do they think the world will blow up or something?

Answer 1

What makes you ask this question?

Answer 2

Well,
We didn't really think the world would blow up.
But now that you mention it, we've been trying to come up with a good day for that to happen so we're proud to announce December 21, 2012 as:
"The Day the World Will Blow Up or Something!"

Answer 3

What ever everyone can imagine. The History channel gave some specials saying that the Mayans, an ancient South American culture, has a calendar that predicts the future with a certain degree of accuracy. The specials say that they predict the end of the world in 2012. But toward the end of the specials it is said that the calendar does NOT predict the end of the world. Confused? you should be. Sensationalism does that to rational people.

Answer 4

It can't I have a dentist appointment Dec 22 2010. Plus the planets will be in near but not complete calibration to the Sun's orbital gravity. The gravitational forces will be so great that the asteroid belt surrounding outside the rim of Mars will be pulled in a "Slingshot effect" which will once again crash into Jupiter, causing huge craters in the surface. The explosions will be enormous and will be visible from earth, but the radiation caused from those explosions will ALSO be pulled in the Sun's already consistent tragectory which will pass BY earth but not do any actual damage. Any stray particles that occur by random chance will simply bounce off of Earth's magnetic "shield" as they say, flying aimlessly into space until it eventually dies or hits something else. All the while my teeth will be just fine. So blow up, no. Something, perhaps.

Answer 5

Sister, get away from your computer and find out what's happening in the real world. Listen to the news. Read a book (yes, I know books are a bit Medieval, but I'm into those old-fashioned methods).

I don't know what you've heard or what you're hoping to hear, but Wacko! Answers is not the best place to get serious information if you can't sort the sensible from the idiotic.

Answer 6

That's a Mayan prophecy. The Mayan calender ends on this date which could either mean the end of the world or a new beginning. No one really knows what the true meaning is. Many people have predicted the end of the world but so far nothing has happened. I think the end has already started with mankind destroying the earth with pollution, ozone depletion and the fact we are using up all the natural resources. If we're not using them all we're destroying them for greed and profit.

Answer 7

i actually did a lot of research about it

i found things on the end of the world i want to share with u....

http://www.quran.org/ap25.txt... look at this first if u don't read the qur'an... it will make the end of this email make a lot of sense...

first of all i thought i thought it would be in a long time from now... but as i looked more and more, it kept coming to the same year...

http://www.tv-links.co.uk/listings/9/4750 and click on mayan doomsday prophecy.... is the first site i went to... actually i had seen this earlier and found it online... it talks about doomsday and stuff like that...

but the thing that caught my mind is that... i had read somewhere that a long time ago there were fortune teller and that the jinni went up to heaven and heard some information about the end of the world from the angels and they told the fortune teller and that's why the fortune teller of the julius caeser was so exact.

One of the most frequent activities associated with the Jinn, is fortune telling. Before the advent of the Prophet (saws) fortune-tellers and soothsayers were wide spread. These people would use their associates from the Jinn to find out about the future. The Jinns would go to the lowest heaven and listen to the Angels conversing amongst themselves about events of the Future which they heard from Allah. The Jinns would then inform the fortune-tellers. This is why before the time of the Prophet (saws) many fortune-tellers were very accurate in their predictions. However, upon the Prophet's arrival the heavens were guarded intensely by the Angels, and any Jinn who tried to listen was attacked by meteors (shooting stars).

so i believe them no doubt....

then i wondered why the sun will rise in the west instead of the east... i thought it would be the wobble they were talking about....
but it turns out to be something like this... http://youtube.com/watch?v=ash_5a_37-w a pole shift and some people have theories about it but no one know what will cause it... thats the only way the sun would rise in the west...

and then i found this.... http://www.tv-links.co.uk/listings/9/6973 if you really listen to what it says, you will find an amazing discovery... its scary to think that its that close...

Answer 8

I dont think anything would happend. The reason i think this When The World Ends, Which Will Be The Day Jesus Comes Down and Saves Those Who Belived And Loved Him. I Dont Think Jesus Would Do It when Everyone Expects it. The World Is Not Going To Blow Up. Jesus Is going to come Down To Earth And Save His Followers, But That day Is not going to be Dec 21,2012 Its Going To be Unexpected. It could be Tommrow or it could be in 100 years No One Will Ever Know. I dont care what scientist say about what they think is going to happend. Im telling you what i know .. Belive in Jesus If you want to be saved. Trust IN Him. and Love Him

Answer 9

well the world was more-or-less supposed to end on 1/1/2000 too, but nothing much happened. I suspect 12/21/12 will likely be just another ordinary day.

Answer 10

well ever since i heard about the world ending on that day ive been freaked out. its scary to think about.. but i dont think anything will happen then. It just doesnt make since.. I mean how would the mayans or whoever know when the world is going to end? did they just pick a random date? and why would they assume its going to be then?

Answer 11

No person with any pretensions to science has any faith in this prediction. In fact most scientists would not even have heard of it, it turns up on web sites, magazines and broadcast programs that scientists sneer at or would only read or watch for laughs.

The prediction has been made by lunatics or fraudsters and is propagated by fools. It is drivel, just like every one of dozens of predictions of doom (or something like it) based on ancient documents or calendars over the centuries. None of them have been correct so far. None have even come close.
