| I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON 2012 Posted: 7/12/2009 9:31:13 AM | | I think it comes after the year 2011 and just before 2013. That is only my opinion of course but you can always look it up on wikipedia to see if i'm right. | |

| I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON 2012 Posted: 7/12/2009 10:13:38 AM | According to the culture of ancient Maya, part of what scholars call Mesoamerica, astronomy predicts some major cosmic developments for December 21, 2012, including, perhaps, the end of the world as we now know it, as some people believe. Mayan calendars are still used by a few cultures in Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, and El Salvador and are said to be the most accurate ones in existence. They date the solar year accurately within minutes, taking account of the cycles of sun, moon, Venus, and other cosmic bodies and only have to add one "leap day" after 380,000 years. Mayan civilisation was quite advanced, possessing technology that modern man is still trying to comprehend.
The history channel has a lot of documentaries of the Mayan civilization. | |

| I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON 2012 Posted: 7/12/2009 10:37:25 AM | Thanks for the correction on the spelling of MAYAN.. WOOOPS! Nancy there are so many such predictions..it's hard to see what might happen even one from NASA that has a loss of life on earth in the millions..saying such things as there will be a realignment of the earths axis..due too gravitational pull of the planets aligning..in our solar system..OH! Well guess will have to party like it's 2012 when it comes ..sorry had to throw that in .. maybe if we work a little harder on the protection and soladarity of mankind.. and worry a little less about when his/her end will come..then maybe the powers that be will see fit to keep us around.. Seeyaa!! Dan | |

| I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON 2012 Posted: 7/12/2009 11:29:11 AM | Well, I guess I'd better get prepared and start working on that Bucket List. There were many who thought the world would end at the new millennium also. Since none of us can predict the future(can we?), I guess we should live each day to the fullest so if life is over then, we will have no regrets. Since that isn't vet far away- maybe we'd better stop putting off all those things we thought we'd get around to "one day". Life is short- eat dessert first! | |

| I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON 2012 Posted: 7/12/2009 11:38:44 AM | Amber, thanks for starting this thread!!! GREAT thread!!!
Actually Diane and Cajun, the Maya did not predict the end of the world. It is just that their Calendar ended in their year 2012. Like Dan said many people and scholars have been trying to predict the end of the world since the start of mankind. Since the Maya Calendar has predicated more accurately of events to come than say Nostradamus, many scholars have of course been studying them. They were considered to be a highly intelligent people of their time, some say being beyond the knowledge of their time, even more than the great pyramid builders...However THEY did NOT predict the end of the world. Again their Calendar just ended there. Some believe since they stopped there, that this must be the end of the world, that they stopped there because there will be no more future to predict. However some believe it may mark the beginning of a "New" era, where man evolves into a new society, of higher level thinking, perhaps the beginning of a new mankind of peace and understanding. Note the words “BEGINNING OF” Note for those of you that are Catholic the Bible says NO ONE knows when the end of time will be.
Dan actually I only spelled it right because I went to google. At my age my memory isn’t always great and my spelling is BAD. LMAO I was e-mailing Laura (Spacey) about the subject when the thread first opened, I typed it as Mayo, instead of Maya, LMAO she replied back “you mean now the mayonnaise is making predications of when the world will end”…too funny!!!
Some of the events proposed to come together on the winter solstice, 21 December 2012:
On that morning, the Earth and Sun will align with the “Dark Rift” near the Galactic Center. This event last happened about 25,800 years ago. The magnetic poles of the Earth may reverse, leaving us unprotected from cosmic radiation for a time. The effect of magnetic fields on human creativity, initiative, mood, etc., is still unknown. There will be a Venus Transit, an eclipse-type alignment when Venus crosses between Earth and the Sun. We witness a pair of these about once a century: the last few were 1518 & 1526; 1631 & 1639; 1761 & 1769; 1874 & 1882; 2004 & then on 6 June 2012. NASA predicts an unusually powerful “Solar Maximum” (sunspot season) for 2012 (though it may peak as early as late 2011). This happens every 11 years, and disrupts satellite and other electromagnetic communications. The usual disasters loom: food shortages, cataclysmic storms due to global warming, gasoline prices going through the roof, looming chaos in the Middle East – site of Biblical Armageddon and Eden – which will disrupt oil production and bring civilization to a grinding halt (some like to call it Mess-o’-potamia).
According to some scholars the Maya didn’t predict the end of the world rather The return of Quetzalcoatl (one of the great gods of ancient Mesoamerica), according to Aztec and Maya prophecies. | |

| I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON 2012 Posted: 7/12/2009 12:08:09 PM | Thanks Nancy for all the pertenent facts..was going on memory wich i destroyed in my younger years ..the reverse of the magnetic feilds and the effect on the human behaviour..was what i was referring to as a reset a change for the good.. maybe this whole existence of mankind has been running on a negative polarity.. when look back thru history it sure seems like it..your paragraph that starts with the usual disasters..we don't have to wait for just turn on the TV and there with us now..now as far as a return of Quetzalcoati maybe thats the reason for the markers on the plateau's of peru ..starting to sound a little like Scientology..who knows if we did we wouldn't be sitting on a sunday posting about it Seeyaa!!

| I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON 2012 Posted: 7/12/2009 12:28:51 PM | Hey I'm still going for the "LONG TERM".
Guess I'm a "the glass is half full" kinda of gal, I try to hope for the positive. Actually I'm one of those that believes the glass is only half empty when you are drinking from it, which I always drink from it ( I call it living)and then you must fill it again, so while you filling the cup again, the cup then becomes half full.....never mind… off topic and LONG story, perhaps best for another thread. I think too much....
ANYWAY back on topic...I like to think it is a new beginning.
Dan you are right the" Usual disasters" is already occurring, has been occurring for a while.
I think Mother Nature goes in cycles like every thing else. However HER presence is always felt. Unfortunately “MAN” (meaning men and women) over use and total disregard of the balance of nature cause disasters to also happen. Some of which we have only begun to feel the effects. I do hope the Human race as whole, recognizes this before it too late. Of course there are few trying to make a change…Kudo’s to them!!!!
LOL, on a Sunday morning what would I be doing?....LOL should be doing the laundry...pulling some weeds in the yard.....but this was far more entertaining!!!
Slipper as far as the crawfish...Hmmmm maybe they will mate like crazy...thus having a population explosion...feeding the food chain...thus wiping out some hunger in the world....who knows? | |

| I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON 2012 Posted: 7/12/2009 1:54:44 PM | ForumFilly funny you mentioned Y2K...
Some other predications made by some for 2012, or 13.0.0.0.0 as written in the Maya calendar.
“An imminent polar reversal that will wipe our hard drives clean.” Daniel Pinchbeck
“The rare celestial alignment of our solar system, our sun, and our planet with the center of our galaxy—an event that will not happen again for another 26,000 years.” Gregg Braden
The “dawning of a Wisdom Age … standing on the shoulders of the Information Age.” Peter Russell
“The December 21, 2012, date will likely be a “nonevent” similar to … the widely anticipated Y2K phenomenon.” Robert K. Sitler | |
