A Critical Opinion About Dec. 21, 2012, Planet X/Nibiru and End of The World

Tweet

Okay folks, please bear with me, this is a long discussion..LOL But I do have to rattle out some ideas out to you. There have been a number of discussions started by some of my MyLot friends about the significance of the date December 21, 2012, which is practically supposed to be the end of the world as we know it, and is supposed to be tied with the approach of Planet X also known as Nibiru, which is technically speaking already on it's path toward us. Now I'm not debunking this completely, BUT, the scientific and history buff that I am does question some things here. By means of paleaotological, geologic, archeaological, astronomical and even historical means we do know that in general, the universe is by no means a static one. Stars, planets and galaxies are born, they die, often by cataclysmic means such as supernovas. Our own Earth is far from stable and has experienced numerous major changes. By the science of geology, for instance, it has been discovered that much of the land in the Middle East that is desert was once tropical like and there have been evidences of marine life deeply buried in the sands of these deserts. Several times in Earth's evolution the most dramatic of changes has been the shifting of the magnetic poles. Whenever this happens, the changes to the Earth are dramatic and could account for the past Ice Ages, and severe floods when the Ice Ages melt. Also, outside forces such as large meteorites have collided and impacted Earth and some scientists believe this was the reason for the extinction of the dinosaurs. The last major flooding of the Earth was some 10,000 years ago, and some of those who are in the more metaphysical persuasion believe this was what caused the sinking of Atlantis. Okay are you still bearing with me??..LOL With the recent discussions about the approach of Planet X/Nibiru which is considered as another planet that is within our own solar system, such catastrophic destruction of our planet will be caused to virtually destroy life as we know it and is supposed to be in it's final stages near around the year 2012. Some of these discussions have included YouTube videos about this very subject, and that our governments are keeping this info from us. Also, in these videos are so-called documented records of earlier civilizations, such as the Mesopotamians and Mayans who all were excellent astronomers, and were aware of the existence of Niburu, and it's destructive path and even predicted Earth's final destruction, especially by the Mayan Codices and that the "end of the world" would be December 21, 2012. According to the Mesopotamian records they predicted that Niburu makes a destructive approach to our Earth approximately every 3,600 years. Ah, now here is where I'm skeptical. Now I NOT saying that all this ISN'T possible, but I'm just rattling facts here from what I remember of my love for the sciences and history. The ancients were VERY knowledgable about astronomy and it is they we have to thank for our current awareness in this field. Throughout time, there have been predictions of Earth's "doom" it's end. Heck, don't you remember all the dire predictions that rattled about with the approach of the year 2000? Uh, nothing happened. So supposedly, this Niburu, which the ancient Mesopotamians knew about and somehow calculated that it approaches Earth's path every 3,600 just doesn't wash for me. If that were true, then within written history, the Earth would have already suffered devastation. Subtract 2012 (the date of our destruction) from 3,600--you get the year 1588 BC --since writing began roughly around 3,000 BC by both the Sumerians and Egyptians there are no records of any kind of destruction. Are there? Not to my knowledge. Now switch to the Mayan Codices, which relates the various destructions of the world. If I remember right the last and final destruction of the world is supposed to be by the element of fire, yet from those videos I watched about Niburu, it would seem that our destruction would be by the means of water...that is a sudden cataclysmic flooding, not only due to the approach of Niburu, but by the severe change in the magnetic poles of the Earth--we are no doubt experiencing the beginnings of this effect now and besides man's past use of fossil fuels that have emitted into our atmosphere creating the greenhouse effect, combined could explain global warming. And yes, even past psychics have predicted that changes in our Earth could happen in the "twinkling of an eye" as stated by the past psychic Edgar Cayce...he had predicted dire changes that would occur by 1996, and that Atlantis would rise again. Uh, well, didn't. So I'm not completely dubunking all this though, since there IS past evidence from a scientific viewpoint that our Earth has indeed gone through dramatic destructions. I just can't help wondering if what some of what is said is a little von Däniken -ish...He was the person who wrote Chariots of The Gods and many of his claims were later proven to be false. One of the videos I watched even suggested that there were inhabitants of Niburu who were of the snake species, and came to our planet and is reason why almost all cultures have had snakes or dragons as part of their folklore, and that the Niburus even "created" the human race...uh, isn't that stretching it a bit? Yes, it is all possible that with the approach of this other planet of Niburu could indeed create the worse devastation to our world as we know it. What I like to know..One, if you heard about any of this, what are your views? Is it possible that the "predictions" are true? Are we going to face one of the worse destructions of the world as we know it? Or is this just another Von Daniken type thing? Here are some of those videos if you wish to watch--there are quite a lot of them http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-3RLx_4Y5Y http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkv4chj47XY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gV3RzRiRLz0
