Is the world we know today is going to end in 2012 . according to the lost book of nostardamas he prophesied that the world is going to end by 2012 ,Another point is that the mayan calender is misteriously going to end in one date 2012 december 12 . also many other old oracles prophesied about the same thing ,so more than one oracle of the old age is saying same thing. as general the population , global warming , ice cap melting all are misteriorsly saying that it is time . so is our world really going to wind up ......?

Welcome to mylot I say nothing is going to happen in 2012 on the basis of this prediction, in the past there were several predictions too, and the globe is very much there.. Well can we do something to stop this? no, so why worried? Thanks for sharing. Welcome always. Cheers. Professor

Lets start with the basic premise that the Mayans predicted an astronomical disaster for that year.....they did NO such thing. Lets start with the premise that the Mayan calender "ends" suddenly in 2012...it does no such thing. In fact, the calender has a number of dates well beyond 2012. It in fact doesn't end, it does what our calender does, it rolls over. The Mayan calender was designed to measure "ages", nuch like ours measures years. When our year runs out, we just go get another calender, saving the world from extinction for another year. The ancient Mayans have been highly romanticized for their purported "advanced" knowledge of astronomy. While it may have been advanced for it's time, (ie; they knew that those little twinkling things in the sky moved across the sky at regular intervals over the course of time in predictable directions), by today's standards, it's "advancement" ranks right down there with using blood draining to cure plague. Basically, the ancient Mayans didn't know a THING about astronomy other than what they observed with the naked eye. They saw little things in the sky that moved, that's it. They didn't know the actual size of these various things, what speeds they moved at, the distances or the make up of them. They were all just little twinkling things in the sky. REAL Mayans today (yes, there are still plenty of Mayans alive and well today) are pretty fed up with it too....so what do ACTUAL LIVING Mayans have to say about 2012?

First of all, Nostradamus was a pro at generalizations. I could say that there was going to be a natural disaster sometime next year. I'm probably right, does that make me an oracle? My calendar ends at the end of this year. It doesn't mean the end of the world, it means I need a new calendar. If I was a mayan I probably couldn't be bothered making a calendar that far into the future, just let the lazy noobs in the future do it themselves. And if they could fortell the end of the world, how come they couldn't fortell that some spanish would come along and wipe them out? I wouldn't say there is anything myterious about global warming either. And honestly, they can't even decide on a name for it. They changed it to "climate change" to cover all the bases. Ha ha.
