is 2012 really the end of the world?

No. There is absolutely no factual evidence behind 2012. It is insane conspiracy theorists who believe something will happen then. It is no different than the nuts who thought the world would collapse when the New Year occurred in 2000. These sort of people come around all the time. Nothing will happen, and those who think something will need a serious reality check.

Well, we went almost a month with out a 2012 thread, I guess it was about time. A search will reveal well over 250 threads on this topic. anyways, no, there is nothing to this myth. None of the disaster scenarios stack up to legitimate science. The Mayan calender doesn't "end". Even the Mayans (who are still very much alive and well today) don't believe this silly nonsense.

Oh yes it is!! There is also a theory out there in the internet that your going to hell after that :p I personally don't think that it is going to be the end. theories like this pop-up every weekend. when nothing happens on 2012 they will come up with 2015 then 2017. Yes! and that time too it will be backed-up by historical facts and space science.Its been happening for a long time.

i DONT THINK THAT 2012 IS THE END OF THE WORLD . I AMM NOT SAYING THAT ITS NOT POSSIBLE . ANYTHING IS POSSSIBLE . IT CULD BE TRUE BUT I DONT AXCTUALLY BELIEVE THAT IT IS GOING TO BE EXACTLY IN 2012 . ACCORDING TO ME IT CAN EVEN BE BEFORE THAT OR MAYBE EVEN TOMORROW . WHO KNOWS! I HAVENT ACTUALLY WATCHED THE MOVIE BUT I KNOW ABOUT THE MAYAN MYTHOLOGICAL STUFF BUT I DONT BELIEVE IN IT. THATS JUST MY VIEW POINT. EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO THEIR OWN VIEWS RIGHT
