Default whats all this about 2012?? :|

from another forum

Quote:
its one thing when like every prophet in existence predicts the end around that date, but when nasa comfirms that **** is going to happen, its just plain scary.


for those who dont know, heres a coles notes...

many prophets throughout time predict the ealry 21st century as the end of human civilization (same prophets who predicted things like the birth of jesus long before his birth)

one prophet from acinet rome predicted that the numbers 9 11 would be very significant one day but would soon be replaced by 12 21 12 (end of our race)

the i ching (sp) which is an ancient chinese fortunes book predicts 2012

the ancient mayan calander ends on 12 21 12

nasa has confirmed that the earth, sun, and milky way galaxy will be perfectly aligned on 12 21 12. the gravitational pull from the sun on one side nd milky way center on the other will cause earths poles to shift resulting in catastrophic events (princeton geologists agree)

the list goes on and on with a butt load of prophets making similar predictions

albert einstien, not a prophet, quotes that the same would happen.
theres also the bible, merlin (not the fictional character), and nostradamus

then theres this computer with AI that was built in the U.S

it was originally desgined to scan the global environment for trends to make stock predictions. it did this with great success and was later reprogrammed to predict other things.

among its correct predictions, with lots of time to spare, are... the anthrax scare, the indo tsunami, katrina, ect ect and then finally its last prediction is the 2012 armageddon.


this cosmic shift that nasa says will happen, happens once every 25,800 years. it was proven that it did happen roughly 25,000 years ago, and at that time before the 'shift', alaska was located along the eqautor. obviously it is not now. (according to the princeton geoligist mentioned earlier)
usually i dont believe that prophecy junk.. but when NASA confirms it....

And this all fits with an illogical dating notation!

Wow!

If you read further on it, it is the new beginning. The race doesn't end, but a new begining begins. In the end, it is simply the end of their calandar since this is the date it goes up to. SO it has to start over from that point.

Just curious, for I know the I Ching quite well - what should it have predicted...?

If 2012 is the end, and we cannot avoid it (or do not wish to avoid it, judging by temporary policy making and economic system), then that is how it is. The better half of my life already is over, what is coming now will not be as good as what already has been. Don't they say you should leave the party when it is at it's best?

Until then, apocalypse will not worry me. Life that needs to be lived - that is what worries me.

This part is true. NASA has indeed said this. (Well maybe not "perfectly" but pretty darn close).

This part is not true. NASA has not said this and i'd be VERY suprised if a bonafide Princeton Geologist would actually "agree" to it.

It's a common conspiracy theorist tactic. Take a simple fact and apply a whole pile of BS to it. It's like saying:

"The sun will rise in the eastern sky tomorrow morning.....and cause everything to burst into flame"

The first part is true, the 2nd is not. See how this works?

The world can't end in 2012! If it does then the UK has spent millions on the Olympics for nothing! I demand my money back!

I'm rather surprised the Mayans and the others could predict the end of the world 2012, when they didn't know when year 0 began, for example.

Along these lines, I heard a rumour that the Solar activity is meant to be up this year, leading to a peak in 2011.

Of course 2012 is going to be a disaster though, Britain is hosting the Olympic Games! :p

Don't let fear rule your life ... faith and fear are a lot alike ...

When?

In the small amount of time that it takes to replace each other ...

Click!

They are just alike ...

Don't be afraid ... be ready.

Proverbs 3: 5-7

Hell, let it come!

The thing that matters most to me, my better half, im happy n shes happy. thats what counts. i heard an astronomer say that every day theres a 1 in 10,000 chance an asteroid the size of texas will hit the earth killing us all. Sure its possible, but unlikely. Like what geetrue said, cant live in fear!
