[…] us in), and so you can imagine the dim view I take of people claiming that a Mayan prophecy says we’ll all die in 2012. I have yet to see one claim about this stuff that is either a) remotely true or 2) not made-up […]

The end of the long count - now in the Zits comic.

I particularly like the slogan in the final panel.

Gary Ansorgeon:

I have it on good authority that earth will end when humans have no furthur use for it,,,say, in about 22,000,000 years. It seems we’re gonna turn the entire mass into space colonies,,,eventually,,,

But that wouldn’t be efficient — you’d still have to haul all that mass out of the gravity well first. It makes more sense to build with smaller bodies, like the asteroids. Besides, I think that even 22 million years from now, people will still be a bit sentimental about Mother Earth.

I could see humans (or their descendants) leaving Earth and letting it revert to wilderness, until such time as the Sun made it inhospitable to life.

I just noticed my drivers’ license expires in November 2012. Do you think they could move the apocalypse forward a month or so? I really hate going to the DMV, especially if the world’s just going to end in a month anyways.

If i can quibble slightly, “Completely Believable” is not neccesarily the same as “Accurate”. Also, I get a “bad request” error following that link.

And I think this quote sums up all the prophecy’s I’ve ever heard:
“Past results are not indicators of future performance”

Well Im not sure where everyone is getting their information from but there are still 8 million Mayan’s left. Not all which follow their heritage.

However, the Mayan calendar (TUN) is a very complex system of events that have and will happen. All which have been confirmed by our scientists.

If anything happens Oct 28th 2011 (true date) It will not be bad, it will actually be something good.

Im horrible at describing things so I’ll leave you with a link to a 3 hour Conversation. EXTREMELY IMFORMATIVE. If you actually want to take the time and truly understand what you’re all bashing than please watch the video. Everything he talks about is mind blowing yet completly believeable, I myself have experienced this first hand. I’m not a preacher, I simply wish everyone to stop, take a step back from their everyday lives and see whats going on around you, your Nation and the Planet as a whole. http://www.livevideo.com/video/Eight…north-ful.aspx
