So assuming that there is an end, how exactly is the world going to end?
Nuclear explosion? Spontaneous combustion? Pluto taking revenge for being demoted to dwarf planet status? >.> |

Well if the wonderful theory of Quantum Mechanics is accurate, there is a possibility that the Earth will just decide to separate all it's particles and send them off in random directions, leaving us all behind. It wouldn't be flashy enough for Hollywood, but the sheer WTF!? moments in those remaining seconds would be hilarious!

I told my 7 year old brother that the world was ending in 4 years and he started crying and had nightmares for a week.
I'm a great big sister by the way. |

Didn't the they stop the calendar when it did because they'd calculated that that was the end of a astrological cycle. I assume they figured they'd just start over and reuse the old one.

i wrote a few paragraphs about this sort of thing in another thread, but since i can't find it to quote myself, i'll have to rewrite from my memory and scratch.
i saw this thing on the national geographic channel - it was a documentary about the end of the world on 12/21/12, and it talked about how the ancient mayans weren't the only ones who predicted the end of the world on that day. apparently, merlin did, too. and some other ancient people whose names i forgot. also, there's supposed to apparently be one of those aligning-in-the-galaxy things on that day that only happens once every 25,800 years [or so], and it'll cause flash floods, start earthquakes, and wreck havoc on our plumbing. the dudes on the tv said that it's happened before, and -that- particular catastrophe started the ice age. make of that what you will. it might just be that the end of the world will end the way that icon said it would. or maybe not. who knows, y'know? |

On the 11th of December, 2012, I'm going on a school massacre and then throw myself off a tall building yelling "I CAN FLY!". If the world is still there on the 13th, that would suck major arse.

If so, you won't see it coming, so don't worry about it.

K-9 must be keeping the black hole from destroying us all. But it seems the test run went as pland. We might have to wait a bit longer for the thing to destroy the world.

So now I have to wait for my armageddon? What a rip-off.

Maybe it is the thing that will destroy the world on the 21/12/12

Biblically speaking, the world will never be destroyed according to Psalm 104:5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever. and Ecclesiastes 1:4 One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever.
However, we also learn from the Bible that the Second Coming could arrive in the forseeable future and culminate the return of Jesus Christ to ensue Apocalypse and destroy the Earth. In other words, we should not hold scripture of any form to be a reliable source of prophetic material <img src='/images/emoticons/smiley2.png'> too many contradictions within the Bible/Quran. Of course, you can always interpret the verses as metaphorical or a parable for something else. |

Calendars are man made and the planet doesn't know what 9/9/99 is or means.
I laughed my head off at all the morons who panicked with the y2k thing, over a year before it began I'd even set my mum's computer date beyond the year 2000 just for the hell of it so I knew there was nothing, more lol at people filling up their baths with water! As far as mayans go, they built things that look like pyramids, so did the egyptians, and on mars there are egyptian style pyramids, and the largest on each planet supposedly line up/point perfectly at each other at certain times, plus a bunch of other egyptian things so I would only rule it out 99% It's pointless predicting the end of the world, unless you are doing a publicity stunt, those mayans could be releasing a movie or a CD! hehe. But yeah it's pointless because if you're right, no one will be around to know about it, and when you're wrong everyone will ridicule you. What it can't hurt to do is assemble an 'armageddon' kit, so if a bunch of asteroids make a mess of the place and 80% of the population is presumed wiped out, you've got stuff like packs of seeds to grow fruit and veg with and one of those machines that makes water from air, which you've modified by adding one of those fitness bikes to power it. And in my strange supporting theory, the world could end because: How much more can technology possibly advance, can you really, really imagine an incredible life-realistic VR simulator machine/program/game? how many more GB can they really fit into a micro SD flash card (the ones close to the size of your small fingernail), they just reached 64GB as far as I'm aware. So therefore technology can't possibly advance that much more, it's only 'meant' to advance so much and the galaxy system caves in around that time! lol |

“Einstein was wrong when he said “God does not play dice”. Consideration of black holes suggests, not only that God does play dice, but that He sometimes confuses us by throwing them where they can’t be seen.”

Well, people said the sun would explode in 2000: WRONG. We are still here. We are still breathing. And we are still alive.
So to say that it would end in 2012 is probably a load of BS. Don't get me wrong-the Mayans were pretty smart as far as ancient civilizations go - but not that damn smart. Damnit....Why do people always pick such accurate dates?: 2000 and 12/21/21? I mean come on! Whats with the 'two's?! Ultimately, the sun is gonna get so big it will have to go boom- but that's not gonna happen for a long long long long time. People say that 'Global Warming' is gonna be the end of the world. The earth goes through cycles, and 'global warming' is supposedly the 7th cycle, it is supposed to heat up the earth. This cycle is supposed to weaken our environment, destroy our O-zone layer, and send the world into drought. Its a renewal process that the earth goes through every millions of years-its pretty natural. :/ Could that be what the Mayans were talking about? It not gonna happen any time soon, though. Not in my life time. Not in my child's life time. And not even in my child's child's' life time. Get it? Either way people will be freaking out about it until it actually happens. I have my best friends screaming in my ears about this crap. Bunch of hippies. There have been predictions about the end of the world since man had walked this earth-and humans have been known to be wrong before... So in this whole subject; I'm pretty open-minded but skeptical at the same time. |

Nuclear tests are what got the ozone layer into the state it's in now, people blame it on industrial gases emitted into the atmosphere but the majority of industry is in the northern hemisphere, and all the nuclear testing has been done in the southern hemisphere, and the hole is in the southern hemisphere, and no where near as many nuke tests are done today (if any), and at the same time scientists have been saying over previous years that the hole is closing...

I find that hard to believe, considering that there's no scientific explanation as to how dense nuclear particles can cause the ozone layer to deteriorate. Haloalkanes can actually react with O3 to break it down into O2, this is something that has been clearly established. To the contrary, there is no explanation I'm aware of as to how any sort of nuclear matter could react in any such way. So no, unless you can actually explain how, I doubt it has anything to do with nuclear testing.
