The bulk of the current events discussing 2012 is the Mayan calendar and that the world will end in 2012. The main problem that I see is the Mayans were neither Greek nor Roman and the calendar that we use today is the Gregorian calendar which is based on the Greco-Roman calendar. They (the Mayans) didn't use the exact same date (the time of the birth of Christ) as the Romans did for the year 1. The Mayans were destroyed centuries before the Spanish came to the Americas.
Different cultures have differing calendars. According to the Jewish calendar we are over the year 6000. (I'm not real sure the exact year)
The Chinese calendar is also well above the year 2007.
The problem is people are using an ancient calendar system and trying to convert it to the Gregorian calendar system and say, "See this proves the world will end at such and such time."
It is not our job to figure out when the world will end, but to be prepared and to prepare others for the time that it will end.

Unknown.
There is no scientific evidence to suggest that the world will end in 2012.
The Mayan Long Count Calendar (which ends in 2012) does not state that the world will end, it is simply the end of one calendar - and if there were Mayans practicing the ancient religion today, they would simply start another calendar. Its no different than our annual calendar ending, and we simply start a new one each year.

Biblically speaking, the answer is no. But we are getting very close. Christ's return can happen as early as 2018, but no later than 2037. The year 2012 may prove to be a pivotal year. Changes in the orientation of the poles on earth and the sun could prove catastrophic. Or nothing could happen. No one knows. But if it turns bad, the timing and the predictions will line up with the early bowl judgments spoken of in Revelation.

We don't know.The Bible says that it's not our bussness to count the times and years.What is suposed to happen is going to happen.People said that the world was going to come to an end in 2000.The most important thing is that you should be worried about is your salvation.The Bible says that we are all sinners and that we all need Jesus.If you want to be secure with God repent of your sins except Jesus into your heart and start reading the Bible.I promise you that it is going to change yor life because it has the answear to every quistion in life.It changed mines.

My calendar ends at the end of January, 2008. Then I'll buy another one. The world will continue until God says so.

It is hard to tell for sure until it is too late. I will be surprised if it doesn't. If it is going to, I understand that to mean that the Close of probation (when everyone's future will have been decided-- Rev.22:11) will be early in the spring of 2009.

No, the world is not coming to an end in 2012. It has been revealed to me that this is just not going to happen.
Relax.
