    Rudy, where have you been for the last 9 months? The question of 2012 and the Mayans has been asked over 40,000 times.

    SInce the ancient Mayans are all dead now, they couldn’t extend their calendar out further, now, can they? The date was as far as they wanted to extend it at the time, this was done over 1,000 years ago. So of course it has an end date. They attached no significance to the last date, it was just where they stopped. Like our calendars go Jan. to Dec. Nothing ‘ends’ after December, we extend it outward again with the next batch of calendars.

    look. i use to believe that too. but the mayan calender doesnt actually predict anything. they probably just ran out of room on the rock they were carving it in and didnt have the technology to add more rock on it

    Yeah I’ve heard of it but I don’t believe that. How many times has the world supposed to have ended so far?

  • morpheus8250:

    Yes. Allegedly, it’s cycle ends of December 21st 2012, and every kook and oddball on the planet seems to have decided that this signifies the Apocalypse, contact with aliens, or some other catastrophic event. Since even the experts on Mayan culture don’t agree on when the cycle ends and what it means, I’m not going to get too worried about all this. If you want to panic, run round in circles, or pre-order your custom tin-foil hat, then please go ahead.

    Yes I have heard about the Mayan calendar and I did so long before the 2012 hoax started to engulf the world.

    People need to understand a few things, first of all the calendar might end in 2012 but it might also have ended on November 05 1734 CE and it might end at 2532 August 12 CE too. The date in 2012 if far from certain.

    The Mayans didn’t predict the end of the world either, they predicted a change in the world and after the change we’ll be living in the "golden age". That doesn’t sound that bad really, no matter if we are already there of if it happens in the far future and will affect our great-great-great-grandchildren or something like that.

    The date 21 12 2012 would have been important to the Mayans for other reasons, the milky way will be in a position that it has never been in before.

    The calendar had to end somewhere, just as ours end at 31 December, it’s not strange or a reason for alarm. There are many Mayans living in this world today, who knows, they might create a new one?

    What has happened now is that people have started to make money on one interpretation made by a man that’s not even a specialist on the topic. The word spreads and other loonies has decided to cash in too, they confirm the story and say that "it is true" and then they add something that they will be able to make money on for themselves.

    This is why you will find plenty of "OMG! The world is going to end in 2012!" reasons. It’s anything from aliens, to biblical prophecies, to comets to "whatnot". Nothing of it is actually true, it’s all about making money. Now you will also find a big screen movie on the topic and it’s backed up by a web page that many persons take for a real serious informative web page when it’s nothing more than a commercial for the movie.

    With this hoax engulfing the internet and the rest of the world it’s really hard to find verifiable, factual information about this. As you shift throught he sources you’ll find that they all point to each other in an almost endless cycle and as long as they keep pointing to each other they are not facts.
