2012: The Coming End of Our Age?

According to the famed Mayan Calendar, civilization, as we know it, will end in 2012. Do we really just have only six more years? Do we need to be frightened? Nervous? Awed? Anxious? Mildly or intensely curious? Do we need to re-look at our investment portfolios? Are we doomed or saved? Just what is this 2012 event?

Girosilationist I seen the space ship get here last night. all the aliens are booking hotel suites so if you plan on traveling i suggest making reservations very early. also my tuning forks have started to harmonize when ever i turn my TV to channel 13 and 52. and sometimes when i tinkle there is 2 streams instead of 1, this is from the magnetic poles splitting into 2. our first order of business when this new age of peace gets here should be to redesign toilets to catch both streams. otherwise we'll just have global peace with a bunch of tinkle on the floor. not good. we should think ahead this time. 11/9/2009
Naturalist Aright I made a nice simple comment but after reading the others I must respond more in depth.

For those of you who think change is not upon us I have something to
say to you. The economy is collapsing. Your currency is an illusion.
The only thing that gives it value is your illusion. Millions of people
are out of work. There is chaos in several cities. Your illusion is
crumbling right in front of you and you can resist all you want and it
will change nothing. Just as in you have to pay taxes that you don't
want to pay but you do, this too will be the case. You will be unable
to stop what is happening. There is nothing you can do. Like a
teenager that says when confronted with something they don't want to do
you hear them say "I'm going to die" this statement is the EGO
resisting change and the obvious. They hate change. They would prefer
to live their own illusion and if they can't, they feel it will kill
them. For you Christians out there understand this, Christ was born and
at that moment the change began. It did take however time for it to
come to fruition. Bottom line is this, change is taking place and
resisting has a great possibility of killing you. Either by your own
hand or in conflict with others. You can continue to be a teenager or
grow up and be a adult and realize just how little control you have.
There are forces worldly (man,nature etc.) and godly (pick your
favorite to call it) at play. Which one will you resist and will you
know which one you are resisting. Have a great day!

Mihai Too many independent sources pointing to the same time of catastrophic events:Nostradamus,Hopi indians,Edgar Caice,Bible code,Maya,the piramids,which cannot be coincidence for.12/21/2012This are events predicted by jesus before his second arrival, time which He does not know ,not even "the angels of heaven" but only THE FATHER ( Mat.cap.24 of the bible) .Therefore the length of this events is unknown "...but on account of the chosen ones those days will be cut short."(Mat.24:21 ) 10/14/2009

Kendall Varden I hope we will come to have peace in 2012. I am so tired of religion and what it brings hate. We need a new way of life. We all share this world we need to get along and get rid of money and help each other this would put an end to stealing because everything would be free. We would still have to work to have food and stuff. But if we didn't have to pay for anything we could do anything that we deem legal like explore space for free, and nobody would be hungry. Only if people would open there eyes. We don't need money to live. Only work on what we want and need. Thats true freedom! 9/6/2009
Christy It better if world comes to an end. 9/5/2009
Kannan Do you want the public to belive this. 9/5/2009
anonymous I really enjoyed that article.
When people talked about the mayans predicting the end of the world i was always annoyed, because I always thought that People believe that ONE thing the mayans believed, and not the other things they believed. Such as sacrificing virgins for the sun.
But you're article gave me another way to ease my mind about the end world

Dennis O Im not going to relate any catastrophy or world ending bussiness or what not too an ancient old book. Yes, there are some points in the stories that back the theories up. But still its just a theory.

Im not going to lie awake on perhaps this upcoming age of terror, or perhaps peace and tranquility..

To sum up some of the world changing catastrophy's ive read in several different posts on numerous of sites.

Trust me, a vulcano errupts when it errupts. Yes, there is a huge magma chamber underneath Yellowstone park, and ofcourse there is a posibility that it might errupt any given day. Perhaps on the day predicted, but that doesnt take a way the fact that there is always the possibility it will. We do not have the technology to scan the inner side of the earth's mantle so prediciting a disaster like this will be max months ahead using a seismometer, most likely weeks. Not decades.

Solar flares fire off whenever they want, theres no way with our current technology we can predict solar flares, and when we notice one is headed or way we only have mere hours too respond. And perhaps the sun is more stable then we ought it should be. But do think about the fact that earth is millions of times smaller then our sun. The change a solar flare will erupt on the precise location that It might hit earth is very, very small.

Some quotes from a site:

The worst Sun storms are called coronal mass ejections (CMEs). They're made of charged particles flung from intense magnetic fields on the solar surface. CMEs are sometimes but not always generated at the sites of solar flares, which are in turn associated with sunspots.

"The faster the CME, the more potentially destructive it can be, so for a worst-case scenario, we now know we have at least 12 hours to take preventative measures,"

There is also talk about the pole shift, which scientists are sceptical about. But theres more and more evidence being found to back this story up.

There also a theory on disasters that our time has come too experience a new one. According to some scientists there is a 99% change that there will be one hitting earth the upcoming years.

I must agree on the fact that we are long over due for a big disaster. But you just cant give a specific date for a disaster or world changing event to hit the earth.

I think its not related, it has nothing to do with digits and numbers. Years and if its about time for a disaster. In my opinion its all about dodging a bullet, and hoping we can dodge the next one as well.

And as we as a human race evolve more, and more we will be able to take matters into our own hands., and deal with a situation we are facing of gigantic proportion.

The story I read on this site does seem the most probable one. But still its just a story, which still has to be proven. And perhaps it will on 21-10-2012. but only time will tell.

I hope that we will reach a higher state of consciousness, and that humanity will become a vast society of care, friendship, brotherhood, welfare and most of all love.

And one last thing to add to this story, so many profecies have been made in the past. And we still went on going strong without any misshaps. So people my opinion and my advise dont let this take a leading role in your life, and if it does let it be a good one. if it does have something to do with any religion, then spend these years in full quality life with your nearest and do some good for the world, even for example if its donating money too a fund, or doing volunteer work.

Well thats basically my opinion. Its not a new theory or whatever. We just have had to many of those too believe anymore. Just stay true to yourself, be a good person and if judgement day will come we can say to god or whatever he/she/it will be that we loved and cared for the world and everyone and thing in it.

Hope these stories wont drive you mad:).

cheers and love.

Alex I feel deeply suspicious of anyone who tells us some enlightened ascended master is going to come to teach the kiddies how to play nice
The age of Messiahs is over, its time for mankind to clean up its own act I think

Ransom This is ridiculous! From the christian point of view the earth is not old enough to go through all the underworld cycles that the mayan people believed. The earth aged by christians is about 6000 yrs. old so the theory of some billion amount of yrs. could not fit in to the time frame. The talk of knowing when the world is to end (well transition in to the peace and higher consciousness) is hogwash in because in the Bible it states that Jesus the Messsiah will return like a thief in the night. NO ONE KNOWS! Thats the point. I agree with Historian that maybe the reason the calander ended is because the people died off, makes more sense than the world is coming to an end. As many people think about the calender ending. 1/14/2009
Historian This is such malarchy... it pushes the idea that the New World Order that is coming about, bringing massive destruction, death, famine and chaos in its wake.. will instead be a passive slip into full consciousness, wisdom, peace, love... just look around you now people. The truth is there is chaos brooding just under the surface, tension building in every nation, waiting, like tectonic plates, to create a surge of energy/cataclysmic in nature... the end result will be the destruction of much of civilized societies by war, famine, disease... as the Book of Revelations predicts. So I think this author's interpretation is BUNK. The Mayan calendar ending in 2012 could be just due to the fact that they DIED... probably due to pandemic, and that could account for the unfinished work. 11/13/2008

Cornelis Droog We learn now from the Bible that the Rapture will be May 21th 2011 AD.
Five month's after, the Ultimate Terror: Judgment Day Oktober 21th 2011 AD
And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. (Revelation 9:5)

The Bible is a Book that is absolutely true and trustworthy. It is the centerpiece, the keystone of this study.
