Will the world end in 2012???

[andre8]

My mind is crazy, doomsday, doomsday, doomsday. UGH!

And it's 5 minutes to midnight on the doomsday clock.

War, floods, droughts, fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, UGH!

[Vffreak07]

Not gonna lie, I just saw a blue thing fall from the sky, and now my whole town is covered in a seriously dense fog. Eerie? Yes. I'm gonna go play Madden.

[holyblakbelt]

^ I saw something falling from the sky too! But I don't think the world Is going to end in 2012. I'm sure I'll see 2013 and hopefully graduate from college on top of that. Whoever is trying to convince me of believing it, they are failing at it.

Here is a short Doomsday Haiku for your enjoyment:

 

Doomsday's surely nigh,

Twenty-twelve will kill us all,

Party hardy, man.

In doing alot of research and reading many books on this, it very well may just be a new beginning not really a means to an "end" par-say. It to me seems like a new spiritual evolution and upbringing. The calendar for the Mayans and such ends for that time period of around 5,000 years or so.

 

Many of the specialist who studied this believe it to be partly alien , but in truth who knows. It doesn't have to do with religion so its not like god plans this. As on this forum there are expressions from many religious point of views. One god over another etc, kinda makes the "end" topic a Bias thing to some or a very strange subject. Meanwhile the best thing to do?

 

Sit on your front lawn that night on a lawn chair, grab a beer, some hot wings , maybe if your not into that a hot chocolate and do as Michael Caine says in The Dark Knight and be like " Some people who just wanna watch the world burn". I guess that makes sense for some also. Personally give me a roasting stick and some marshmallows.

^^We can debate the prediction of the end of the world, but NO ONE can predict when American Idol will end...

 

Hiro Nokoumora can predict the outcome of American idol and when the world will end.

If the world was ending that's what I bet I'd be doing as well.

Lol, thanks. Haikus are my specialty!

I should have pointed this out when I first joined TPR. It's like my signature lol

 

Anyways, like my haiku says (lol), I'll be partying on the aforementioned day in 2012. I plan on enjoying those last few minutes, if they are indeed my last few.

Which I sincerely don't believe. But, hey, it's an excuse to party!

[Mr. Starr]

Yeah, I think I've already had enough with Y2K.

[Elaine]

Pfft, no way. I've had more predicted deaths than hot dinners.

[ahecht]

Nostradamus has predicted that the world will end in 2012. At first I didn't really think much of it, but as I looked farther into the French Astronomer, I found that he also predicted the great Chicago Fire, as well as the terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers in New York. Nights have gone by, and I've began to think about it more and more.

 

At least get your wacko theories straight. The Mayan Calendar ends in 2012, Nostradamus has nothing to do with it. Nostradamus was a philosopher and astrologer (fortune teller), not an astronomer (the telescope had not even been invented yet when he died). A mistranslation of Nostradamus supposedly predicted the Great Fire of London, not Chicago, and a correct translation showed it to be a commentary on the heretic burnings that were occuring at the time. The passage that supposedly predicted 9/11 was a complete internet fabrication -- Nostradamus never wrote them. The only thing correct in that entire post is the last sentence.

[alpengeist04]

Oh no, not this again!!!

[CommanderLock]

$10 says that on 12/21/2012 that everything that can go right, will go right.

It's probably just the Mayan calendar-maker going "**** this calendar! 2012 is enough!" and left it like that.

^And if it does, then fine...we can all move on with our lives, and finally close this topic that always seems to find a way to pop back up to the top of the forum...lol

 

I never claimed that I thought the world was going to end, (as a 14-year old) I just thought I'd share what was being talked about in my Social Studies class. I figured some people here may have had some intelligent opinions to share, but soon it became quite clear that...I was wrong.

 

It's not the first time.

[bhslhs]

Didn't a bunch of people predict that the same thing would happen at the turn of the millenium?

[Devious]

The mayan calendar ends in 2012 because in their religion it was supposed to be their "Next era" and the "End of that world"

 

though, they crashed out long before they reached it, theirs your mistranslation, mostly lost in time and well hidden

 

take that as you will

Mate, you should be proud of this thread, it's one of the classics.

 

Of course it's no "What would rides be like on the moon?" http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21038&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=moon&start=0

 

That was meandering along in a nice light hearted way, until the bottom of page 13, when it turned into TPR gold.

[hobbit]

NO!

in 2012 we will enjoy from a lot of new Rollercoasters! (i hope)

[Hercules]

Damn. I thought this thread ended February 18, 2009.

[Manny In England]

The only certainty is that there will be no 2013 for this thread. Unless people are posting, "wow, can't believe how rediculous all this was, loking back on it"

[Hercules]

^ It already hit the "rediculous" fan, and yet somehow is still moving forward!

[KPfreak519]

OMG YOU GUYS!!! I FOUND THE SECRET TO 2012!!!!

 

NOTE: IF EASILY OFFENDED DO NOT READ

 

Hello Ladies and Gents, I'm here today to talk to you about Jesus.

 

Now I know what you're thinking, Jehovah's Witness, Jesus is your savior, blah blah all the usual crap, right? WRONG. I'm no door to door recruiter, I'm a scholar. Now while most scholars whittle away their life studying the Bible, I was much too clever. While on an excursion in New Guinea in 1996, I discovered something fascinating. A missing book of the Bible - the gospel according to Jesus. That's right, the man himself had something to say about the biblical times, not just his acquaintances. Of course, this had to be kept low-profile, because I couldn't let people know about the facts I had discovered, until now.

 

Let's change the subject real quickly. We all know about the Mayan "prophecies" of imminent doom on December 21, 2012. But those are wrong. How do I know? Jesus. Yes, Jesus says so in Jesus 31:3, "The world shaln't end on December 21, 2012 as some non-believers will predict" and continues on in Jesus 42:5-7, "Sorry, for the digression there, I had to tell someone about the things that leper woman could do. Anyways, no the world won't end on the aforementioned date. In fact, on October 29, 2009, I will rise from the Earth and strike vengeance upon all you ingrate bastards."

 

What does this mean? I wasn't quite sure until I kept reading, but it was really boring, so I didn't get around to it until late 2005. Anyhoo, in Jesus 66:6, "While I'm sitting around for the next 2000-odd years, I'll have plenty of time to think about how to strike vengeance on this godforsaken planet, and I'll put my plans in England, where no one will want to bare through the thick accents and rude behavior to find it." So against my better judgment I went to England. Fortunately, the Airport had the plans framed in a display case with a plaque reading, "Free, please take." So I did.

 

Here's Jesus' devious plans:

1. Rise up from the dead, get reconstructive surgery to not look so zombie-esque.

2. Go to Asia.

3. Take form of a rice plant.

4. When the farmer comes along to reap his harvest, I'll take the form of Godzilla, and team up with Venomoth or whoever the F*** the giant moth is.

5. Repeat for every farmer in Asia.

6. Go to Africa.

7. Take the form of AIDS medicine.

8. When ingested, take the form of AIDS stimulant.

9. Quickly escape Africa to South America.

10. Have a 1 v 1 with Cortez's remains, all of South America will somehow die?

11. Go to England.

12. Bring plague upon all tea plants - all residents will commit suicide.

13. Australia falls upon its master's collapse.

14. Rest of Europe falls into turmoil.

15. Go to North America.

16. Force another Presidential election, support Hillary / Palin '09

17. Remaining world inhabitants die/an hero.

 

You see, all this worry about 2012 is in vain. Take it from me, I'm an expert.

[Chris Benvenuto]

You guys realize Nostradamus predicted all the way to 2979 or some far away year similar to that? I believe Nostradamus more then the Mayans, sure they may've been right about alot but eventually they're going to strikeout and be wrong about something.

 

The world's not going to end, no one can actually predict when it does, but it's fun to speculate none the less. Laugh, point and scold me all you want, that's my belief and I'm sticking to it. Period.

 

My 2 cents, as you will...

[Hercules]

If you use that logic, Nostradomus could strike out too, and be wrong in his predictions all the way to 2979!
