Most of the stuff around the 2012 topic is propaganda. The Mayans themselves don't believe it's the end of the world... it's the end of an age.... the completion of a ~5200 years cycle.

If you have interest on the topic, I'd suggest you to watch the Zeitgeist movies (in my signature), they make few reference to it and also cover tons of other interesting topics.

Before I owned MT, I was a lot more into "alternative and conspiracies topics"... I've read many and many things... and I'm not talking about 10mins long youtube videos full of bs... I was browsing for hours on abovetopsecret.com (the biggest conspiracy forum, which contains tons of interesting stuff... and also tons of crazy stuff...)

Anyway, I don't feel like bringing the topic to a debate because there is simply way too many things to be said and it's impossible to have a proper debate without everyone having the same information.

But... to keep it very short and simple, my beliefs on 21/12/12 are either: The return of the ancients, the beginning of the golden age, the end of humanity or nothing.

Also... please stop comparing Y2K to 2012... it frustrate me to see this comparison everywhere... the Y2K bug was about an hypothesis that some old computer system would not be able to update the time date to 2000 and would cause a massive bug when communicating with the new ones and the time difference would have caused massive disturbance in the world network... which just didn't happen.

2012 is about the completion of a very long astrological cycle which has never happened to the face of humanity.

Just felt to give my input because I've read a lot on the topic... but as I said, I won't be replying to questions or participating in the debate... feel free to make your own conclusions <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f642.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":)">:)</object>

Cya

No offense, but it has happened in the face of humanity. <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f61b.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":p">:p</object> It just wasn't recorded. I say this because civilization (as defined by a settlement of people) started around the year 10,000 BC, according to scientific evidence (carbon dating on items that appeared to be in a settlement in the Nile and Mesopotamian regions). In addition, modern humans first appeared around 50,000 BC, so there's been roughly 40+ of these events that have happened. It's the only thing wrong that you said. <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f61b.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":p">:p</object>

As well, to everyone else, the Mayan prophecy only states, in a rough translation that I've read, "The world will change as we know it." As Sawine has said, it can be the end of an age, the start of a new age, some new technological advance, the world blowing up resulting in a cataclysmic multidimensional problem resulting in some kind of super paradox... that last one is not going to happen, by the way, haha. Life and existence cannot end so abruptly as what everyone says will happen. It's against everything we know. We'll be without a sun for about a day or more, I believe, but that's it. Solar equinox, if I remember correctly, when six planets align with each other this December, I believe. We won't have true solar equinox yet, as that's on about an 82,500 year cycle (I forget the exact number but I remember it being in the 80k number area).
what i believe is that something will happen... but not gods revenge.... just a transition in the universe.... the end of this year predicts the end of the mayan calendar... but the mayan were very associated with astrology,... it just so happens that the end of this year marks the changing in the cycle of constellations..... i think were in cancer now... heading to w/e .. (sorry cant remember that bit) ... but its just a transition into another constellation phase... happens every so often as we revolve around the galaxy..... things will happen though.. with anything astronomical... just like the phases of the moon have an effect on the earth.... same principle... its just how everything is lining up that is kinda scary.... transition to another constellation .... wobbling of the poles..... increased climate activity.... its just a transitional phase... though the question is... How big of a transition will it be???
sorry if i overlap on others opinions... i havent checked all the new ones today...

GIVE THAT GUY A MEDAL!!!!!!!!
I LOVE THOSE KUDOS BARS.... lol XD i want one!
The reason people seem to believe this is because SOME of the Mayans other predictions were vaguely somewhat similar to other major events that have happened in the past. People will construe anything they can if it will justify them believing something terrible is going to happen.
Meh, I personally just think they ran out of wall to writet on before they wiped themselfs out from sacrifincing one another....
