I'm kinda sitting on the fence about 2012. I mean, people have been making predictions of when the world is gonna end for too too long. I read in a book that the world was supposed to end in 2006. We're still here aren't we? Yes. The only reason, I believe, 2012 is the "true" end is because of the mayan and aztec calendars. yes there calendar ends in 2012, but as someone else said in this post, they couldn't keep going on forever, they had to stop somewhere. So why not 2012? no real relevence. So since the Mayans and Aztecs "say so" the world is gonna end. It doesn't mean shit, it's just the year by default(my opinion).
It could be real though. It is said that there is a reason for everything. Maybe there was a reason their calendars do end in 2012. What about some prophecies being fulfilled? Some of those were made over a thousand years ago and they didn't cease to come true. It could be "luck", but that's VERY doubtful. The world has to end sometime right? Why not now? I know that's kinda scary to think of, but I personally think that some people who say that 2012 is bs because they're in a state of denial. What some of those people think is "Well the world can't end now, it's impossible blah, blah, blah". I mean no offense to anyone either. It could be that the people denying it are in denial and just say it so they don't freak out. I don't mean to sound harsh, but there are sometimes where you just have to accept the fact and there's nothing that you can do or say to make it stop. "It has to start somewhere. It has to start sometime. What better place than here? What better time than now?" sure, those lyrics mean a totally different thing than this subject, but it does apply....kind of....
so there are valid enough points on either side of the subject, but we can't be sure. like global warming. it's almost the same situation. that shit's been being talked about for years, there's valid points on both sides that support it and oppose it. if the world is getting warmer, is it caused by us? even if it is, can we stop it? even if we can stop it, we don't know how.
