Some doomsayers are saying the world is going to end December 22, 2012. I, for one dont believe that, I dont believe there will be a revelation of any sort. I DO believe there is a comet headed our way, but I dont believe it will strike us or come anywhere near us for that matter. I believe this will be like the year 2000, just another turn of another calendar.
Now, there are several theories on what will happen in 2012, and I will try to touch on and contradict the ones I rememer.
The core will reverse, the earth will spin backward, and/or the magnetic polarities will change, sparking massive worldwide storms wiping out the population of the planet:
No! why in god's name would the core or earth start revolving in the opposite direction, thats like saying a spinning quarter will spontaneously start turning the other direction without outside interference!
As for the magnetic polarities changing and rather than repelling harmful solar rays and other such things: Last time I checked, a magnet is a magnet. South will attract north, and vice versa, it doesnt matter if the earth switches polarities (some say due to the core reversing), it will always have a magnetic field that helps protect us. Unless of course these harmful things in space have some kind of magnetic polarity. But, I highly doubt that considering the southern half of the earth isnt any more unprotected than the north.
The comet, as nostradamus calls "Nibiru" (IIRC) may or may not be the Planet X NASA discovered back in 2001 I think it was. If it is, GREAT! we will see a comet that hasnt been seen since around 3000BC! Will it hit us? probably not, if it does, oh well, it'll be quick. But according to some historical documents, this comet is apparently so large it will be like having a second sun. I want to have a child before this day comes just so he or she can possibly see, and remember this comet.
Rapid Evolution:
What? Since when was evolution instant? Healing can happen in as little as a few minutes, but evolution takes many, many years in some cases, and in most, millions of years.
Aliens/God will transcend upon us, and take us to a higher sense of self-being.
Sounds like a cult to me, this sometimes also involves the comet. Basically we are nearing the center of our galaxy and the "galactic counsil" will take us in to be judged as a species and possibly let in to the federation. Now, I cant really contradict this because there is no SOLID proof that there actually is life out there. I like to think there is because what are the chances that we were the only ones out of trillions of stars and their solar systems, to form into living, conscious beings? However some say the comet is (paraphrasing the following) "bus that will take us to a higher being". So, essentially we have to "catch the comet" and ride it to the galactic center? umm... Does anyone remember the cult that all committed suicide wearing sweat shirts and pants to "catch up to the mother ship"? Cant remember what they were called. This theory actually kind of goes hand in hand with the mormon religion, hence why I find the mormon religion to be *more* believable than christianity. I just dont like to think someone was spontaneously here, and decided "hey, I wanna create a huge void, put planets on it and life on certain planets". But then again, I'm Atheist, so I'm more of a science guy myself.
Thats all the theories I can remember, let me know if you agree or disagree with anything I posted here. And yes, I am aware the last one there is more personal belief than science, therefore we will all be biased to our opinion.
I also believe that if this crap keeps going on about the doomsday stuff, and the general population ends up believing the world will end, we will go into anarchy and destroy ourselves, whereas if we just wait it out (like Y2K) nothing will happen, and we can get on with our lives as normal. See the human reaction to an EMP attack on North America (not sure, it will likely be in wikipedia) to get the jist of what I'm trying to say.

) Another thing is apparently the crystal skulls (yes, they are real, and so is the "energy grid" that people think was placed by aliens) were coated with a thin layer of silicon (or made entirely of, I cant remember which) and some theorize that they could actually be some kind of advanced harddrive, and when we learn to read it (back to the doomsday theory... ugh) it could stop our destruction.
