Next year will be a doozy for doomsayers. depending on the prophecy, the world is predestined to expire by means of a solar storm, asteroid strike, rogue-planet collision, plague, falling stars, earthquake, debt crisis, or some combination thereof. Of

Gotta remember to pick up my survival suit from the dry cleaners.

BTW the mayan calendar speaks of "the end of time *as we know it*." So, just get ready to reset your watches :-) or maybe shift into another dimension.

The calendar we have on our kitchen wall does not cease to exist after December 31.. the Mayan calendar will not cease to exist on December 21..2012..The date is the end of the Mayan long-count period but then..just as any calendar begins again on January 1..another long-count period begins for the Mayan calendar..
But it is something how many people are preparing for the end..

Thanks Agnes..

The Mayan calendar is cyclic, not linear. Doomsday prophecies have proven to be pure B.S. time and again.

Nevertheless, there are threats out there that no so-called seer has noted as threatening us.

Take no notice of the doomsayers that are predicting the end of the world in Dec 2012. Like a couple have mentioned the Mayan Calendar is about cycles, we're coming to the end of a 26.000 year cycle, that's all.

Thank you, Agnes, for this very interesting article. Dee, that is a very good answer. Sure there is a lot of doom sayers about 2012. There are always some doom sayers. Some people like to frighten others.

We are all going to expire long before the universe does. If the repugs get one of their morons elected POTUS I would expect it to be sooner rather than later.

It only will take 1 hour for the end of the world to occur. With nuclear weapons in the world, they are already aligned with the Angel of the bottomless pit. Mans lack of common sense,arrogance and love for violence and war can bring all of us to our knees. (The doomsday clock stands at 5 minutes til midnight,) and we must all together choose the ways of peace if we are to avert someday our own extinction.

Please try to understand, that this danger was not prevalent in the 17th century. The problem began with the invention of nuclear weapons. Man has always been warlike, but now in the age of nuclear weapons this could easily be a recipe for a worldwide disaster just waiting to happen. Seek the ways of peace, respect, and love for these are the roads which lead to life!

It might not be the end of the Universe but the end of our world if one of the
warmongering Idiots hits the button.
