I don't trust any civilization that couldn't even predict that it was going to get annihilated.
I think it will end much sooner than that, Jan. 21, 2009. A day after Obama takes office.

The world has to end sometime. The question is how will it end? Maybe by a zombie apocalypse who knows. Or evil computers. Maybe a meteor will hit us. Or just maybe a viral plauge.
MAYBE I WILL, but ya we'll see what happens... personally i'm hoping for the world to literally turn inside out... thatd look coolDethFan666 said:
Here's my prediction: In 2012, Starcraft II will be released in Korea. So many people will be playing it simultaneously that the entire Korean power grid will be offline. During the time it takes for the back-up generator to warm up, a meteor will hit a nuclear siulo, making the computer think that they are being nuked, and, thus, fire retaliation nukes at several nations. This, in turn, will cause those nations to fire their retaliation nukes, and we're all gonna get nuked to hell.
But you know what? starcraft II is gonna kick ass.
My serious prediction: anything any philosopher says is too vague, and we just try to apply it to anything that makes us look smart. The fact that the Mayan calendar ends in 2012 is because, well, the person making it didn't live forever, maybe they ran out of stone, maybe they got bored, maybe there was a revolution or something, you don't always get to sit there, undisturbed, carving calendar dates into stone slabs.
If I see anyone who thinks the world will end in 2012, I will bet them $1 000 000 that it will not. In the event that it does, it wouldn't matter, for obvious reasons, but if I'm right, I'll have $1 000 000 worth of pennies to swim around in and gloat at all the people who would fear anything at all just because it's popular to do so.

I gotta admit, its quite a creepy thought that the world will end. Mainly the things said by Alpha Wolf 13. Honestly though im not sure what i believe. On one hand i dont think the world will end cause some fool says so. However, all those culture that had no connections predicting the same date; its more than a bit creepy.
Oh indifference, how i hate you........

K, I don't know if someone said this, but there is NO WAY I am reading 5 pages of posts. anyway a guy told me in Mexico (yes he was Mexican)that the Mayans-not Aztecs- were happily living and making their calendar until the Spanish chased them out of their cities and into the forests. So they didn't predict impending doom they just never finished the calendar. Just what I heard.
Damn, just missed getting a cookie.Hankage said:
As for my two cents, the 2012 prediction has as much merit as every other "doomsday" prediction ever conceived based on a religious or ancient text. Ergo, none. I won't pretend to know when the world will "end", but I can tell you how the world will truly end. It will either be destroyed by our sun going red giant, hurled into the colliding super-massive black holes at the center of the Milky Way and Andromeda (which are going to collide billions of years from now), or torn apart by a force, known as dark energy, that has yet to be understood or examined. Dark energy is some substance or force, which we have observed indirectly, that is pushing everything in the universe farther and farther away from everything else. Many physicists have theorized that, at it's current rate of expansion, that in many billions of years dark energy will begin to not only rip apart galaxies, but stars, planets, and eventually even the very atoms that make up all matter in the universe. Life may be persistent, but even it can't survive that.
