[Whinoa]

A few years ago, we had a thread regarding Mayan’s prediction about the end of the world, 12/25/2012

We’re heading to the date in four more years! What do you think will happen? Could anything happen right now could relate to the innovation of 2012?

[Reidar]

...innovation of 2012?

If the unholy apocalypse is your idea of innovation, I hope you never become the CEO of a company.

[technicolour]

Unless they find the skulls and align them at the precise time, we're screwed.



Or so says the History Channel.

[Marlons]

^ I don't remember that part of the show.

[Tramatize]

I thought it was 12/23/12?

I honestly have no idea wheather or not to believe this, because i've been thinking about this for about a year now, but i heard about 3 years ago that that a meteoroid was going to hit earth in 2012 unless we can block it with a missle...?

[none345678]

I don't know if I do or not, would kinda suck if its true though...x]. But I have also heard that a some point in time a giant snake is suppose to come and kill everything and every one except for people on Australia? or some crap like that.

[technicolour]

^ I don't remember that part of the show.

When the newest Indy Jones movie was coming out, they did this lovely documentary about those crystal skulls. There are apparently 13 skulls, only a few have been found, and if all of the skulls can be found the impending doom will not come.

Something like that. This was a long time agoooo. And my memory sucks.


Eh. I'll find a link.

Read the first and second little section.

According to Mayan Legend, there will come a time when 13 ancient crystal skulls are reunited that can affect the Earth and the course of humanity. The story of Creation according to Mayan culture plays an integral part in daily Mayan living, so it is no surprise that the day the calendar ends plays an equally important role. This date is calculated as December 21, 2012 and there are many interpretations of 2012 Mayan prophecies.

[Tramatize]

I think it funny how people think it stupid though, because i'm not sure if its real or not, nor does anyone, but if it is true, why be surprised? The mayans had the earth under so close of a watch, that we use their techniques today, so why would it be that crazy?

[karmakiller]

Too bad there isn't more evidence that it's true. Otherwise there'd be a lot of illegal things I'd be doing throughout 2012.

Moved to Debate.

[Whinoa]

I demand you to put this thread back in the lounge now.

This is nothing close to the debate. This is simply an open-discussion about THOUGHTS, not really an argument. You didn't explained your actions, mod.


Reider,
i used the wrong word so I'll use this one, "phenomenon".

[creole]

I thought it was 12/23/12?

I honestly have no idea wheather or not to believe this, because i've been thinking about this for about a year now, but i heard about 3 years ago that that a meteoroid was going to hit earth in 2012 unless we can block it with a missle...?

I've heard of that two years ago, about an object in space that is forming and is currently about to swirl around Earth and hit us. If they shoot the meteoroid with the "missile", bits could float around Space, which could even make it worse. I think they should use some type of Repellent to force it back.

[technicolour]

^ It's not a mosqiuto. Repellent against an asteroid is easier said that done. Kind of. Weren't they working on a "Star Wars" type of device thingamcbobber that would take care of it?

But anyways.

Why is this in debate? It's more or less just information. Not debating anything. Except the date of our impending DOOM.

[rnicron]

omg, look out for the snakes on a plane!?

you all really believe everything you hear, yeah? i can understand that, yeah, maybe the world will end in 2012, but by a giant snake? you've got to be kidding me. if anything, i think we'd have a better chance at dying because of global warming, than to be eaten by king kong the snake.

You won't be saying that when I giant sank is coming after you. I'm pretty sure though, I heard that from some cracked out kid in my class soooo yeah.

And "Star Wars" was the name of a program started by a president to try and build a laser in space so if people shoot missiles at us we can shoot them down. Or something along those lines.

[Tomates]

i doubt anything will happen. What about 6/6/06? Nothing happened then. We're all still here today are we not? I already went through with half our class freaking out and going 'its the end of the world!' shit when it was near 6/6/06.

[none345678]

Yeah but there was no historical evidence that 6/6/06 was the end of the world, people just assumed because of 666. some with the year 2000.

[Tomates]

Yeah but there was no historical evidence that 6/6/06 was the end of the world, people just assumed because of 666. some with the year 2000.

exactly. Im not sure if this was issued overall and/or at me

when the snake comes, you be sure to let me know.

it was under president reagan. who doesn't know that?

[creole]

No one really is concerned about 09/09/09?
Well, superstition is just poison to our mind. Science and Fact is the antidote.
Enough said. We should not worry.

[Tung]

Why would we be concerned of 09/09/09? When nothing happened on 06/06/06, or 07/07/07, or 08/08/08.

Idiot.

[datass]

lol what the f**k @ giant snake.

[Tung]

I'm going to move this back to the Lounge.

[technicolour]

THANK YOU!

It wasn't really a debate topic. More...informative. Ish. Kind of. Uh. Yeah.

[datass]

except the info is ridiculous

[rnicron]

Why would we be concerned of 09/09/09? When nothing happened on 06/06/06, or 07/07/07, or 08/08/08.

Idiot.

THE OLYMPICS!

[Whinoa]

how does 666, 999 or y2k relates to the mayans' prediction?
who made these predictions?

it is a known fact that mayans' predictions are accurate by 99%/ 100%. Mayans never predicted any of the 666,999,and y2k.

they were the one who predicted the 9/11 which came out true.


as for the 'starwars' thing, first of all ... hahahahha

i doubt it's going to work against a gigantic rock when it's designed to hit man-made missiles(and the sizes are not comparable to a big rock).

[AngryBaby]

the mayan's predictions were pretty vague....

[Whinoa]

^
yeah, they were pretty vague but scientists tried to get a general idea out of it.

Do you know the descriptions for 2012? what's the website for these claims regarding the end of the world?

[fameONE]

I hope something does happen when the Mayan calendar comes to an end. I've grown to like destruction and mayhem.

[Whinoa]

actually, the mayan's calendar ends at the end of the world, 12/21?/2012.

some mentioned that we're going to have a nuclear war.
if it does happen, America's at this disadvantage during this financial crisis. it's not going to be easy to bring us back up. sooooo, how are we going to have money for war?

[fameONE]

actually, the mayan's calendar ends at the end of the world, 12/21?/2012.

Re-read my post.

Maybe we'll break out in another World War. I'm down with that.

[AngryBaby]

well first off, do you believe in the "negative outcome", or the..."new age outcome"? a golden age of sorts.



i always found this circle interesting as well.

[Whinoa]

^i dont think for myself. i think according to scientist's predictions.

so whether i believe it or not, it doesn't even matter. i am just fascinated by these kind of claims and interpretations made by humanity. our society is really laughable.

Re-read my post.

Maybe we'll break out in another World War. I'm down with that.

Huh?

when the calendar ends, the world will be 'smashed by a rock' or 'nuclear war'.
does that answer the question? LOL?

[AngryBaby]

Oh so you believe in the asteroid theory? that's the only that makes sense i suppose. its the only one realistic too, well ww3 is realistic, but we have control over that..and of course we get screwed with something we cant control -__-

There are 13 baktuns in one Great Cycle, or "13-baktun cycle", as it is also known, which is a total of 5200 tuns, or around 5,125 years. It started in 3114 BC and ends in 2012.

what i always found funny, unless im wrong. how come most of these prophecies are magically proven correct AFTER the fact. for example, after 911, we go back, look at the calendar, and try match some descriptions to the event, and come to the conclusion: "hey THATS what they meant! look!" -__- makes me skeptical.

[fameONE]

Huh?

when the calendar ends, the world will be 'smashed by a rock' or 'nuclear war'.
does that answer the question? LOL?

Haha, nevermind. Pardon the confusion. I'm tracking.

If the market is this shitty in 2012, I'll gladly welcome a war. That's some serious job security right there.

[Whinoa]

i wouldn't say i believed it.
I'm simply enjoying every scientist's predictions so it can range from war, global warming, and to rock.
basically, i don't have a mind of my own. I'm absorbing these information for fun.

in conclusion, i just think something will happen to the world, not really the end of the world or we're get killed or smashed

get my drift?

as for ww3, we don't have control over it. every human's civilization is different so our beliefs are not the same as the rest of the world. a lack of understanding of each other will leads to potential problems.

[AngryBaby]

More control than an asteroid...

[Whinoa]

You didn't say that, "more control"!

Oh so you believe in the asteroid theory? that's the only that makes sense i suppose. its the only one realistic too, well ww3 is realistic, but we have control over that..and of course we get screwed with something we cant control -__-

yeah, the descriptions are so symbolic. it's funny how they used "2 birds" as the twin tower and the "2birds" are crashing "down".

symbols can mean anything.

[Reidar]

some mentioned that we're going to have a nuclear war.
if it does happen, America's at this disadvantage during this financial crisis. it's not going to be easy to bring us back up.

The financial crisis is a worldwide affliction. The U.S. has the largest and most influential economy in the world, which is why foreign banks are peeved with the dilemma originating over here.

sooooo, how are we going to have money for war?

WWII helped bring America out of The Great Depression.

[fameONE]

as for ww3, we don't have control over it. every human's civilization is different so our beliefs are not the same as the rest of the world. a lack of understanding of each other will leads to potential problems.

And as it stands, America, generally speaking, has a limited understanding of the rest of the world. I'm sure the US will provoke another international conflict in the coming years. History repeats itself. The war in Iraq is coming to an end but even then, one step in the wrong direction will ignite the bullshit all over again. If NK, China, Russia & Iran decided to team up; who knows? By the time they're all on the same page and decide to take action, it could be 2012.

...just sayin'.

interesting!
more details! please!

I'm currently studying economy/gov at my school.


about the war,
in ww2, America grew out of the depression because their homeland was safe. Germany's homeland was not safe because they were constantly under attack during the productions of weapons. did the production puts them in a good economy? No. it was widely damaged and "bleeding".

we dont know if ww3 will pull us out of the depression. war doesn't promise anyone out of depression because Germany had financial issues during the war.

[AngryBaby]

You didn't say that, "more control"!

lol you know what, im not even going to edit that.

by 2012 i'll only be at the peak of my sexiness....so depressing.

[sixfive]

It's a good thing we have an awesome bureaucracy to make sure things get done in this wonderful nation.

[AngryBaby]

thats why im voting obama, he'll stop the asteroid

[Whinoa]

MEN IN BLACK!

[AngryBaby]

as soon as i saw this, i said, "well shit i gotta vote obama" i was on the fence too.

[Whinoa]

Yes, that's a very good possibility. American isn't liked by the world right now. their silence will not protect themselves. They are going to act upon their beliefs and anger.

Hellz yeah!

I challenge you to a dual big brother!

about the war,
in ww2, America grew out of the depression because their homeland was safe. Germany's homeland was not safe because they were constantly under attack during the productions of weapons.

America only entered the war after they were attacked on their own soil, so no. There was widespread concern hitherto about potential involvement and to what affect the conflict would have on the U.S. Also, by definition, an economic crisis diminishes national security, so you're working with a tautological problem right there. How did America get out of The Great Depression by being safe when they weren't safe because of The Great Depression?

did the production puts them in a good economy? No.

It did. The increased demand for goods and commodities bolstered the workforce, whereas the New Deal only stifled the pain. There was a huge surge in industry during this period from the demand of equipment and new technologies. Most of the economy was being run as a command and control system with rationing and forced savings, which ensured a cycle of demand.

we dont know if ww3 will pull us out of the depression. war doesn't promise anyone out of depression because Germany had financial issues during the war.

That's because they were still suffering from the repercussions of post-World War I. Basically, everyone recognized that Germany was kind of dickish, so they placed economic sanctions on them, which overran their course and instigated hyperinflation. It's pretty much the exact opposite of our situation and the widespread dependence that foreign countries have on the U.S. economy.

In conclusion: make war, not love.

[Harp]

This things are always blown way too out or proportion.
At least, this is what I think.


Hey, did anyone her about the Federation of Light thing?
Some guy got messages from aliens that On October 14th, 2008
a big 2,000ft spaceship was supposed to circle the Earth, and there would be
chaos in the world? Funny how that didn't happen. AND, when the swiss were doing
the molecule testing thing or whatever, how as soon as they did it, there would be a huge
black hole that swallowed the earth? People got all hyped about that, but it didn't happen...

There are more then one story for the whole 2012 thing.
There's the Mayan thing, and then, I guess a new one about a pole shift?
Where the world with totally turn around? Yeah. Ok.

I'm not worried about this stuff. If it happens, it happens. That's life.
