Sooner or later the end of our civilization as we know it will happen. There are any number of reasons why - global warming, super volcanic eruption, space rocks and ice balls the size of texas, nuclear war, killer robots, some crazy disease, God's apocoylpes. Really I'd put more weight on killer robots.
All I know if the world ends I hope I die very quickly cause I don't really want to live in a post apocolyptic world or that it happens when I'm already dead.
And actually I saw thing on the tele about a meteor (conviently named Anubis, if I remember correctly) that will cross the Earth's orbit within one million miles and if it hits a certain spot they called a "key hole" Earth's gravity would pull it into a spiralling collision course with earth. The rock would orbit for about 10 years spiralling ever closer then crash into the Earth.

All I know if the world ends I hope I die very quickly cause I don't really want to live in a post apocalyptic world or that it happens when I'm already dead. You know, it might be hellishly miserable, and I certainly don't personally long for an apocalypse of any kind, but not matter what one endures, there is an end to suffering eventually, at least of the worldly kind. Beyond that, then, I think that every big event like that is like taking our evolution and reliving the childhood of our Species, but with some experience under our belts this time. The world is a pretty shaky, rotten place in general, at least the "civilized" world. Perhaps when an apocalypse does happen, we'll come out of it better than we were before. Maybe then we'll be more careful with ourselves and our world. With all the movies that have been made, and the books, etc., that put an adventurous, romantic spin on post-apocalyptic earth, it's hard to envision what it would really be like to survive such an event, if anyone will indeed survive - and you have to imagine someone will - but it would be a very different world. What could we accomplish if the standards that hold us back now no longer existed? When civilization falls, the balance of Chaos and Order will be upset, and no longer will there be powerful regimes to dictate what people are allowed to be capable of. We'll need to understand and appreciate community, which most of the world now is so saturated in that we take it for granted that there are other people in the world. I'd bet my money on asteroids, or nuclear war, personally. Maybe there will even be mutant monsters in the wastelands. Or Zombies, I always thought it would be macabrely funny if after we made hundreds of zombie takeover movies, it really happened. Robots, I think, will happen next time, after we recover this time. Maybe it's just the tone of the culture I was raised in, but I've always felt like some kind of apocalypse will happen in my lifetime. I wouldn't be surprised if the asteroid Nibiru turned out to be true, but you also can't really live your life in fear of it either - it's a pretty unavoidable event if it's going to happen. We'll either manage to do something about it or not. Oh, i'd also consider alien invasion on my list as well, it is a big universe out there. peace

all 2012 predicitions are made up by thiose who want to feed off your fear of death and the end - the more thay get you going the better it is for them - and the xtians are right behind them waitin for jeezuz and the culling and the killing and the blood
ok - here's the general idea
The date December 21st, 2012 A.D. (13.0.0.0.0 in the Long Count), represents an extremely close conjunction of the Winter Solstice Sun with the crossing point of the Galactic Equator (Equator of the Milky Way) and the Ecliptic (path of the Sun), what that ancient Maya recognized as the Sacred Tree. This is an event that has been coming to resonance very slowly over thousands and thousands of years. It will come to resolution at exactly 11:11 am GMT.
1) solstice is (wiki):A solstice is either of the two events of the year when the sun is at its greatest distance from the equatorial plane. The name is derived from Latin sol (sun) and sistere (stand still), because at the solstice, the Sun stands still in declination, that is, it reaches a maximum or a minimum. The term solstice can also be used in a wider sense as the date (day) that such a passage happens. The solstices, together with the equinoxes, are related to the seasons. In some languages they are considered to start or separate the seasons; in others they are considered to be center points (in English, for example, the period around the June solstice is known as midsummer, and Midsummer's Day is the 24 June — now two or three days after the solstice).
2) everybody has different data and interpretations of it - the mayan calendar is perfect for arguing over and vague uneasyness because it has no beginning date - you can't carbon date rock and there are no events listed in it to tie it to our dating system and even leap years
3) (http://www.crystallotus.com/TheTransition/005.htm) The Sacred Tree of the Mayans is the crossing point of the ecliptic with the band of the Milky Way. - this is the most important concept in all of all the data
4) the 'band of the milky way' is enourmous - should we use the center of it, or should we use the galactic equator? what about center of galactic mass? what about our solar system's moving around within the galactic arm, which has been proven through observation that we do
5) oh wait - the mayans used eyes, not instruments - to them the milky center would have been the dust cloud that looks like a road through the sky from horizon to horizon when viewed from a truly dark place like Haleakala and Mauna Kea observatories area
5) so when do astronomers say we cross the spot one sees the ecliptic crosses either the galactic center or the galactic equator or the 'mayan road' of the milky way?
oh, and as the sun is one-half of a degree wide, it will take the December solstice sun 36 years to precess through the Galactic equator or whatever - (http://alignment2012.com/whatisGA.htm)
The precise alignment of the solstice point (the precise center-point of the body of the sun as viewed from earth) with the Galactic equator was calculated to occur in 1998 (Jean Meeus, Mathematical Astronomy Morsels, 1997). - (http://alignment2012.com/whatisGA.htm)
Thus, the Galactic Alignment "zone" is 1998 +/- 18 years = 1980 - 2016. This is "era-2012." - (http://alignment2012.com/whatisGA.htm)
if we use the constellation sagittarius, which is smack in the center of the 'mayan road' as the mayans might have used their eyes, it happened on sept 4, 2006, and that is +/- 18 years = 1986 - 2022. - (http://solar-center.stanford.edu)
so you see there is no exact "date" of the shift, and those that have been predicted in the past have been proved wrong by time - which is probably what will happen this solstice as well.
but if it dosen't we need not worry, for, if we are of the light, we will be protected by the light, and if we are of the dark, then we will be protected by the dark, and if we are gray, then we will be protected by both of them
enjoy,
e.

The rock would orbit for about 10 years spiralling ever closer then crash into the Earth. I saw the meteor story too. It's named Apophis, not Anubis. I'm voting that society wipes itself out by making/eating too much fast food and dying of complications from obesity, like heart disease, stroke, and diabetes, myself... Besides, Time'll eventually wipe away any and all traces of our existence anyway. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/blablabla.gif) This post has been edited by Darkmage: Nov 29 2006, 08:24 AM
