I have bad feelings about it mostly because 2009 is 1343 away from the number 666 and in the year 1343 a tsunami, caused by an earthquake, devastated the Maritime Republic of Amalfi, among other places.  It's obvious that something big is going to happen at the end of this year because why else would my company make a calander that ends at the end of this year?

And I who could've sworn that the end was coming 2012! Thank you for bringing these news.

i hope it happens and it's just me and lots of babes left.

I picked yes, but what I meant was that it was just going to be taken over by a big ball of lint that has been building in my closet for quite some time.

BEWARE OF THE LINT!!!

I bet that ball of lint can't compare to the ball of lint that I constantly have to remove from my belly button.

It was just a prophecy.. I hope it's not... when I first read about it  I somewhat scared and always come in my mind what if like this.. what if it's true.. what are we going to do? or how human prepare for this? There's a coming movie entitled 2012? and it somewhat show how the world ends in it's own enterpretation... But of course I still believe in god..

I voted yes, since a guy named Frank wearing a bunny suit keeps telling me the world will end then.

There's why you believe, right there.

world war 3 is on us

russia china iran and north korea are working to destory freedom world wide and it can only end in atomic bombs being used

my friends we are in the last days

Our star, the sun, was born in the heavens about 4.5 billion years ago. Our sun is about 1/3 of the way through its expected life. Scientists are now predicting the following events during the remaining life of our star:

* In the next 1.1 billion years, its brightness will increase by 10%. This will super-heat our planet as a result of a severe greenhouse effect. All of the oceans on earth will boil away and all life will be destroyed.

* In about 6.5 billion years, our sun will double in brightness and use up all of its supply of hydrogen fuel in its core. This will cause the sun to begin swelling as it uses hydrogen from the layers surrounding the core.

* In about 8 billion years the sun will swell to 166 times its present size. This giant star will swallow up Mercury, Venus, and maybe even our Earth. Our sun will then be what scientists call a Red Giant because it will be very large and red in color.

* After all hydrogen fuel is used, the sun will begin to use helium as its fuel. This fuel will burn very quickly and only last about 100 million years.

* In about 12 billion years, the sun will eject much of its outer layers and become a smoldering, collapsed core that scientists would call a White Dwarf.

This will certainly be a violent end for our sun and the earth. This does not, however, mean the end of the human race. If our science and technology capability continues to advance, we may be able to explore and colonize other worlds. Home, for future humans, may be billions and billions of miles from our home world of earth.

It won't end on the 21st. Everyone will be all paranoid about the 21st, and then when it passes without any problems, everyone will let their guard down and BAM! the world will end on the 23rd.

The Mayan calendar is cyclical, it has no end... it simply restarts... besides how many modern calendars have you come across that are printed with dates 2000 years from now? Silly.

Ah, doom prophecies. So many of those have risen since the Middle Ages and still the world survives.

He says Believe in "GOD" not believe that it would happen.. lol

Anyways me too I don't believe in this prediction like others says to see is to believe..

It could possibly happen but we cannot really predict when it'll happen.

^^

Some present day Mayans say "Leave us alone, the Mayan calendar does not foretell the end of the world."

you will not need money when the world will end.

so what for? ^^

It should be clear by now that no higher power will mess with this shithole and will let us self-distruct instead. Just for fun.

Maybe that was all taken into the original calculations: Human advancement, over population, war, disease?

There is no way to tell, it's not like they wrote all the variables they used down for us to go over them later...

lol ^^

Are you afraid  that it'll happen on that year??

I don't want  that to happen while i'm still alive.  r arrr...

I think there is a certain psychology with end of the worlders, whether it's Y2K, 2012, or just your basic Bible thumper that thinks they see signs of the apocalypse.

I think it's a sense of self importance, or hubris if you will.

Recorded history has been going on for thousands of years, and the end of the world has been predicted ever since.

But it didn't happen back, then, and it's not going to happen 10 thousand years from now. Nope, it's going to happen soon. Why? Because I'm here now. The world couldn't end till I was here to witness it. Yep, I'm so important that i'm living in the end of the world times.

Yep, that's when the world is going to end, while I'm alive. Because i'll be here to see it and I'm really, really important. Why would the world end if I was already dead, ten thousand years from now? It wouldn't matter then, because I wouldnt' be around to see it, and I'm what's important. Me!

Sorry, you're just not that important. You are not living in the end of times. Hate to break it to you, but you'll die, and the world will go on with out.

No, if I die the whole world has to end! I'm really, really important!

Nope, you're just another schmuck. the world won't end just because you're going to die.

This reminds me of a KOTOR ! quote...

"Malak is a tyrant who should be stopped. If he conquers the galaxy, we're in for a couple of rough centuries. Eventually it'll come around again, but I'd rather not wait that long. So we do what we have to do and we try to stop the Sith. But don't start thinking this war, your war, is more important than any other war just because you're in it."

Yeah...awesome. Anyways, just my two pence, I don't think the Mayans predicted anything special happening, though it might have held some spiritual meaning to them. Regardless, anything significant, be it a hurricane/political/cat-in-a-tree event that happens in 2012 will likely be attributed to the Mayans as a prophecy. Who are we to judge what is coincidence and what isn't? People will find meanings in events for the sake of having them. It's a silly habit, one I don't doubt of which we all are guilty, but on such a massive scale, it becomes a bit silly. 

Also, to the apolcalyptians, why the heck would you want to predict that?! It's not like you're gonna live afterwards and say "I told you so." Well, you can try to survive, I guess, and eat cake with GlaDos.
