Will the world end in 2012? The Mayan Calendar says yes



Even though the Mayans were one of the most intelligent beings in history, I still have much skepticism about this. Maybe it will happen in 2037, but certainly not 2012.

Probably for you and your ilk, but for most of us it will be like it was for Noah after the flood.

probably not for you democrats either, for unless you are one of the people collecting a welfare check or a federal paycheck, then you shall be getting taxed more as I shall be.

plus we shall both be using a fiat currency too.

Ugh Here we go again. The Mayan calendar does NOT say the world ends Dec 21, 2012. The Mayan calendar ends on Dec 21, 2012. Those interpreting such calendars are the ones fueling this hysteria by assuming they ended it there b'c they think the Mayans might be saying it's The End! No. The Egyptian calendar ends in 2012. The I Ching ends 2012. Many other civilizations time-lines or calendars end in 2012 with no explanation but that doesn't mean they're saying it's 'the end'.

It might be the end of the age, but the end of the world? I highly doubt it.

According to the mayan calander 2012 is the the end of a cycle, it has nothing to do with the end of the world. Where do people come up with these crazy notions?

There should be an option for "I don't know". And out of curiosity, where did 2037 come from?
