You should be glad to be alive then due to a cosmic event that happens every 186,000 years. The Earth's rotational wobble, the Sun's rotational wobble, and the Milky Way's rotational wobble will be lined up with each other. It'll be something to tell your grandchildren.
Yeesh, what's with you people believing that 2012 isn't coming?
In all seriousness, we can't date the apocalypse. Of course I don't believe in the apocalypse happening on that date.
Exactly! People keep complaining about 2012 coming. I think there was an error in distributing 2012 calendars.
We know. and it will be less than 3 billion years. We will have to leave earth to survive one day. If we even make it that far... ]
Okay, I'm going to call you on this, Dante
There is no Astrophysical event that will happen within 3 billion years from this date that will destroy the Earth.
The nearest event that can destroy the Earth is in 5 billion years, 2 billion years after your timeline, when the sun expands into it's red giant phase, and either throws the Earth out of orbit, or eats it. For lack of a better term.
Can you name an event that could happen before that date that could destroy the Earth?
Also, we won't be around in 1 billion years, when the surface temperature of the Earth reaches almost Venus levels. At lest Mars during the day levels :smile.gif: Yourself would know exactly what temperatures, he's extremely smart. I defer to him on anything. He knows more than I ever will.
The sun will continue to get hotter until a certain point, then it will get colder.

I have Asperger's Syndrome, a mental disorder of the Autistic Spectrum, apologies in advance if my posts seem a bit off.
What's really funny is how people think that the calendar dates have always been around. The Gregorian calendar (the one we use today) was created in 1582, which is fairly recent.
While the Mayans were a civilization surviving from 2000 BC to 900 AD.
You see, the calendar system we use today doesn't translate at all with any ancient dates sheerly due to complete difference between calendar systems.
So it's impossible for some ancient civilization to predict a specific date and time on a calendar that is not even their own.
...coasts over and mostly everything. Nights would be completely pitch black.
That's when the creepers get you...

The world was supposed to end in May this year. What makes you think that 2012 is going to be any different?
Consider this: The Mayan calendar Ends at December 2012. All calenders end. Unless it started at the time of the big bang you can't really prove anything. Also, what if the Mayans couldn't help but end it? Say their area got invaded by another group, and they had to evacuate and leave the calendar unfinished.
Bottom line, 2012 isn't going to special. All of you are being riled up over nothing. Instead, worry about 2050, when earth's resources get exhausted. THEN we are screwed.
The end is December 21. In America, were a day behind the other side of the world. Will we see Russia crumble for a day before we die? And this is off a calendar? Wow, scientists are gathering beliefs from a billion years ago like IGN supports trolling.

The apocalypse starts at the Prime Meridian and goes West at 1000mph.
1. CoD Series sucks.
2. 2012... will happen, so will 11/11/11, 2013 and 2020! i am not sure what you are saying.
3. If you mean the end of the world, there is no logical explanation.
Religion does nothing except make life worse. and give people an imaginary friend. sorry to burst your bubble, but... try watching the news, where dinosaure bones and other fossils, older than the apparent age indicated in the bible, have been found.
RELIGION GTFO!

Dear God yes
I have a feeling that won't happen anywhere near me.
A volcano can go off causing another ice age.
The sun could burn out.
There is a theory where the big bang is still going on and once it completes it will cave back in on itself.
A blackhole could appear.
But any of these could happen any time. Not just in 12/31/2012.
Hahah, good theory.

PSHHH! WE REAALLY SHOULDN'T TALK ABOUT THEM. THEY ARE WATCHING US.

The calendar actually loops at 2012, because it is a circle.
