nothing is 100% true.. however we still got the fact that a european scientist took this object into his hands and studied the exposed minerals and confirmed it to be atleast 1000 years old... however he couldnt confirm the exact date... no hoax can make minerals old lol but then again i dont kno much abt minerals haha

I'm worried about 2012, but in no way do I give a crap about what the Mayans said would happen. They lived hundreds of years ago, and have no way of knowing what would happen hundreds of years in the future.

The way I see it, there is a huge chance that there will be a nuclear catastrophe sometime within the next fifty years. More than likely, it will be within the next twenty, or even the next ten years. With all of the paranoia about 2012, it's plausible that some person, possibly anyone from a lone-acting terrorist to the leader of Soviet Russia, would launch some sort of nuclear strike, putting into action a massive chain reaction.

But that's just one possibility.

Really, it's also entirely possible that when the Mayans said "end of the world" they really meant "end of an age." The birth of a new age would certainly be a date that someone might try to predict.

wrong wrong wronng lol

the mayans did NOT say anything...
they simply made a calendar which ends in 12.21.12 .... theres no written manuscripts about anything happening... the theory of world destruction came from many different sources, some from mayans, but they never said "world ends in this day" they simply made the calendar, our job is to find out why it ends wen it ends.. a part of their culture said that at the end of every cycle, there will be rebirth to the world... u cannot have rebirth without death... and thats how the doomsday theory from mayans started... but theres still many other sources which point to that date...

my personal most believeable sources of 2012 are the mayan calendar and the i Ching... the rest are partially believeable to me

The Mayans never said it was the end of the world. They just stopped their calendar at a certain point, much like how we tend to end every calendar on December 31st. There is no significance to December 31, no catastrophes, no historic phenomena, just... the end of one year to mark the beginning of the next.

PS; they also never said 12/21/12 is the dawn of a new age. That, along with the end of the world, was interpreted by us.

I think no one read my original post. ;_;

I never meant that they literally said anything. You're reading too much into my post. I simply meant that there's a possibility they ended the calender in 2012 for a reason other than a cataclysmic event.

its ok alusair, we all read ure original post... not paying attention to it is another thing xD

either way, lets say ure right abt mayans just ending their calendar like we do, the next viable source is the i Ching... seperate civilizations, very different and unique in their own ways, separated by thousands of miles of sea.. both point towards the same date.. are we going to die in 2012? i dont kno, is something big going to happen in 2012? something that will change lifes on earth as we kno it? i believe yes... why? because i think theres way to much pointing towards it to ignore it... and wether theres going to be a polar shift, a solar flare, massive earthquakes and tsunami's, ufos revealing themselves to the world again, or simply, another day for christmas shopping, we ought to find out on that date.. but one thing is for certain... this date is nothing like Y2K because Y2K was about internet and computer shut downs... which was real, just a mistake by programmers.. nothing pointed to Y2K like they are pointing towards 2012

There was a power outage in my town almost exactly at midnight the night of the supposed "Y2K." It scared the crap out of us, but nothing bad happened. I'm guessing that's going to be pretty much the worst case scenario for 2012, just a couple of power outages across the country, maybe a few hundred people dying, several robberies and murders, and one or two small earthquakes.

Yeah...just like what happens every other day of the year.

I can't keep posting/reading this thread. It's gone too far off the deep end.

Just to let everyone know, I went ahead and plugged the Apocalypse into the forum calendar. http://bbs.evony.com/calendar.php?do...day=2012-12-21

The bad news is that it's on a Friday, so it's a case of getting home as soon as you can to see the loved ones and maybe cracking open a bottle of vino. It's just a shame because the TV is normally good that night.

:rolf: ahahahahha u crack me up boleslav xD!!

well, i guess this is as far as this thread goes then... all i gotta say is... lets wait to see wat happens

oh and yes.. imma crack a 21 yr old buchanans at midnight hehe

care to join?

lmfao i just saw someone tried to post the 12.21.12 thing onto the calendar but they posted it on 12.12.12 hahhaha
