From the Mayan calendar and a runaway planet called "Nibiru," from killer asteroids and theories about galactic alignments: The internet is full of talk about the world ending on December 21.
NASA scientists recently addressed some of the most pervasive of these rumors around the dubious date. Take a look:
Mayan calendar
The Mayan calendar began somewhere around 3,114 years before the current era, and is set to end on December 21 or 23 (depending on the translation). NASA scientist Mitzi Adams describes what the Mayans would have done had their civilization lasted and why there is no cause for alarm.
Galactic alignment
Will the Earth, Sun and center of the Milky Way line up in December? Yes! But as three astronomers explain, it happens every December and is not a sign of doomsday.
Solar apocalypse
Like any other star, the sun will eventually use up its hydrogen core, expand and engulf the Earth. But don't rush out to buy Red Giant insurance for your home by December 21 - you have about 5 BILLION years to prepare. Two NASA scientists explain.
Killer asteroid
There is a real, long-term concern about possible asteroid impacts, and that's why NASA has been scanning the heavens, cataloging them for nearly 20 years. And as two NASA scientists will tell you, not a single object has been found that's on a collision course with Earth.
Polar shift
One internet rumor about the world ending on December 21 is that the Earth will shift on its axis. Astronomer Andrew Fraknoi explains how it's just not possible to change the way our planet rotates in a single day.


Interesting and Unexpected 12/21/2012 Scenario ..... No solar flares or meteors for NASA to laugh about .. just unanticipated waves of multiple massive Earthquakes that rock the West Coast .....with California, Oregon & Washington State sliding into the gurgling maw of the Pacific ... with Idaho, Nevada, parts of Utah and Arizona now bordering the Pacific Ocean ..... At the very same time .. A Massive New Madrid earthquake takes out Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Ohio leaving a 200 miles watery gap which would now be known as the really wide Mississippi River from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico .. and lastly .... another unexpected series of massive earthquakes occur around the Central Virginia Seismic Zone .... which completely destroys Washington, DC .... then runs straight up to Philadelphia ... takes them out ..... then unexpectedly turns towards New York City and levels it and then, again unexpectedly .... heads straight up North ....and drives throughout all of New England ..... being particularly devastating in what is left of Massachusetts ..... The New Capital of the Western United States is located in Utah ... The New Capital of the Eastern United States is in Georgia .. Blue States now only remain in history books .... Camera ... Action !
I would like to know where did you get all this information. Who was your "source" to all this knowledge?
His anal region.
Lol....Duh
Its already 12/21/12 on the other side of the world and nothing has happened.. ...... BTW jack what if you died what would ppl find in your laptop and phone
The man is obviously
Making a joke..lighten up! If it's the end of the world we cannot do anything anyway...if its the end of
Civilization that's different, and it's always good to have emergency stores of food and water
And to be prepared.
ByebyeStupid,
Your argument might be sound if Mayan civilization was on the other side of the world, but it wasn't, it was smack Dab in the central time
Zone..not that I a imagine anything scary will happen come midnight tonight...but learn before
Making such statements
It doesn't matter where in the world you are, the winter solstice occurs at 5:21 am gmt on the 21st.
Yes then they must also have the answer to how the stones of Puma Punku Bolivia, were made in 14,000 BC.
@Brian:
The winter solstice (summer solstice in southern hemisphere) for 2012 occurs at 1112 zulu time (0612 EST) on 21 December. As I write this it is 2130 EST (0230 ZT) on 20 December. The solstice has not occurred yet.
He got all of his Mayan Apocalypse information watching History Channel, which now must find an entire new library of shows, because everything they've been broadcasting for the past 3 years is now obsolete.
Jesse Moran is my best friends name, is this you? The info you seek is linked below. What worries me is the nuclear power plants in the same map. Red outlines quake zones yellow the plants. Even worse is the countries that do not have our guidlines and build on fultlines. Scary thoughts not of if but of when.....

Amazing grace. Nostradamus alive again. Thank you, I am more relax now. Looks like nothing going to happen to Florida.
Well at least until the next election then we will see how long it takes for them to count all the chads again....
Kind of makes you wonder what other written stories are a bunch of nonesense, think about it!
"a runaway planet called "Nibiru colliding with Earth..."
Here again is a prime example of Fareed Zacharia spewing erroneous information. If one takes the time to properly research what one is being paid by CNN to spew about (I thought they hired Zacharia to make us all feel warm and cozy about the Middle East), one would know that Nibiru, referenced in the Sumerian creation myth, never collided with Earth.
According to the Sumerians, Nibiru is on a highly elliptical orbit that brings it near Earth every 7500 years or so, and the inhabitants of Nibiru, the Ananacki, use that opportunity to come to Earth to mine gold.
In fact, the Sumerians believed that the human race was cloned by Ananacki to mine the gold for them. Zacharia should read Zecharia Sitchin's "The Twelfth Planet" before dabbling in ancient myths of which he obviously knows nothing...
@papa: if their were any other planets beyond pluto it couldn't support life, so no aliens coming for your gold. lmfao
second: if there was any planet out there of enough size to impact the earth we would see a shift in our stars wabble as it moved toward the inner planets along with the effects it's mass would have on other planets orbits.
third: as massive as jupiter is, anything large enough to harm earth from the outer regions of out solar system would be drawn into jupiter and crushed.
sounds like an interesting movie, when is it coming out?
I blame Bush. Or Obama. Or maybe a touch of delusional thinking on your part.
Let's all take refuge in the padded rooms at the Asylum Suites! Its sounding like a great party! Where is your tin foil cap?!!! LMAO
"Jack" is the perfect exemplar of what is wrong with our country. His is a blatant dismissal of science, logic, and basic good sense backed, no doubt, by a religious and political extremism that rejects reality completely.
He and his type are destroying America. He and his ilk are the reason that we are failing and falling in the world.
May God have mercy on America for we are doomed because of "Jack" and his like.
I'm sorry you were bullied as a child
Good thing no one is applying any sort of stereotypes here, because that would be bad.
Someone needs to ask Santa for a funny bone for Christmas.
No, we are doomed as a nation because of dumb red state theists and a über greedy 1%.
You made yourself sound a little silly because he was saying that the apocalypse would only wipe out blue states.
He is clearly making a joke. Is there no such thing as humor anymore? Maybe you are whats wrong with america. You make it so depressing and serious. I think im going to curl in a ball and cry now.......alot.
I guess that about covers everything.
Good eye, sperry23. Check-plus, smiley face.
And, Jack? I hope you’re proud of yourself – destroying the whole continent of America like that! If there were any justice in the world someone would send you straight to bed without dessert, young man! Continents aren't toys you know!
Someone grab his gun, and his professors teaching degree if he has one. Jeeze man, check with Walgreens – I think your prescription needs refilling.
I think the solar flares are emanating from Uranus
OMG...that made me laugh out loud!
That's impossible... Uranus isn't a star... not even a brown dwarf star.
Horray! Someone who came up with an equally entertaining reply to Jack's humor...and a one liner too...I'm going to have to remember this one to use at a New Year's Eve party or something.
* right lateral
Jack's last name must be Hoff.
Good effort on that low-hanging fruit, realityman2012. It’s nice to see a man at the top of his game.
I agree, cause he's Hoff all the time! Lol...!
and the fault line that runs throughout peachland is dormant amazing!!!!!!!
What about the rest of the world!!??
Jacks statement makes sense but you need play Dixie land and wave the Dixie flag while reading it
Thanks for researching that one for us, geeworker! I hope you didn’t hurt anything.
"just unanticipated waves of multiple massive Earthquakes that rock the West Coast"
But they can't -be- unanticipated! You're anticipating them right now! How can you anticipate something being unanticipated? You can't, that's how! Now they're just boring *anticipated* earthquakes, and you've ruined it for everyone! I hope you're happy, anticipation-ruiner! Now when the earthquakes strike I'm just gonna be like, "Welp, saw that coming" and then a big beam will fall on my head or something and my last moments will have been ones of boredom instead of shock and terror! Did you consider that before you started in on your reckless anticipation? What ELSE are you anticipating, anyway? Want to clue us in on that so you can ruin even MORE things for us? Stock crash? Camry actually got good crash test results? Morgan Freeman and Spike Lee to co-star in a romantic comedy? Why not get it all over with now, you – you – ANTICIPATION KILLER!
Jack and PeriSoft,
Thank you both for a good laugh. It's too bad more people are not able to recognize Jack's joke for what it is.
Brilliant!! Simply brilliant!!!
Truly truer than true genius!
Yea Utah! Only problem is that, (as I look outside our window), all I see is snow and snow covered mountains. But, just knowing that a warm beach will be here soon, gives me hope! lol
TRUTH IS...NO ONE REALLY KNOWS
Of course we know nothing will happen!
Excactally, no one does know, So I wish all these rumors would stop going around it's doing nothing but scaring our kids.
Sorry to interrupt, but – Hoolagans? Captain Obvious asked if he could have a word, when you have a sec’.
As a child I agree with misty besides my birthday is tomorrow and I really want to turn 12!!!!!
While intriguing and thought out, if not particularly well, earthquakes of that magnitude would devastate the entire continent, not just select US states. So if you want Georgia and Utah to become the new capitals of the US then I'd suggest praying it doesn't happen.
Probably not a Jazz fan! Can't blame yea. They really sucked last night against the Pacers.
TOMORROW IS THE END OF THE WORLD? LOL
FEW HOURS MORE: The Apocalypse is coming. Find a safe place to hide. God save us all. Please WATCH, LIKE, COMMENT & SHARE my short film on youtube. Thanks.
The blonde has nice cans.
Bad acting... Bad production.... F-
What is this? weather god throwing tantrums against USA and USA alone?
Hey Jack, you are crazy! did you know that?
I am all for creativity and imagination. Just as long as it is not drug induced. Well?
Why do so many nutbars write like this ... their comments always look like an ellipses bomb exploded ... I don't know why they punctuate like this ... but they do ... now, now all nutbars do this ... SOME DO THIS INSTEAD ... and some MIX ... ELLIPSES BOMBS ... WITH ALL-CAPS ... but my point here is ... every time I see something written like this ... it's always insane gibberish ... not all nutbars write like this, but all people who write like this are nutbars. (Except for me, just now.)
What? Are you...talking about?!!?!!?! I'm an author...and I write like that all the time. And, yes...I ALSO like nutbars. I did not realize before...that there was some kind of CONNECTION! HOLY CRAP! ...DO ELLIPSES MEAN YOU LIKE TO EAT NUTBARS??!?!!!?!?!...or is there something in nutbars that chemically induces the use of ELLIPSES??!!???!!???!
(you forgot the extensive use of exclamations and question marks...I love to do that too!!!!!!!!!!!!??)
I thought you were nuts until I got to that sentence. Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!
I am pretty sure that Jack is a pseudonym for Lex Luthor
Yeah sure buddy! Keep dreaming! Obviously a GOP election sore loser still hoping till the end of days that somehow a catastrophic event of unheard of magnitude will somehow help the GOP and r3dn3cks to win an election in the near future because of some 180 degree flip flop of the north American continent so that blue states turn red ? Your psychosis is getting the better of you my low-foreheaded friend!
Get over it slacker GOP sore loser! The world will not end, so don't quit your job so you can keep paying your bills !
FOUR MORE YEARS AND THE WORLD CONTINUES TO TURN ROUND AND ROUND! THANK YOU GOD!
GOD BLESS AMERICA AND GOD BLESS OBAMA!
GOP LOST THE ELECTION BECAUSE THEY LOST AMERICAN FAITH. GOOD JOB L0SERS!
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
Wow, intelligent reply...Oh, I guess I should add, NOT. If you're so damn smart how can you not recognize sarcasm at it's most blatant? Do people have to add, "Just kidding" to the most simplistic of smart ass remarks? Oops, you also might not think that I mean what I say BECAUSE IT'S NOT IN ALL CAPS WITH A BUNCH OF !!!!!!!!!!!'S.
If the world is indeed ending then why not laugh a little...I'd much rather go out with a smile on my face.
Some right winger's wish list, may be. Sorry, you will be disappointed. LOL.
byebyestupid: It doesn't matter if it's the 21st on the other side of the planet. The Mayan Calendar officially ends on the 21st at 11:11am, GMT – which is 6:11am Eastern Time in the United States.
You're funny. I saw this in the History channel.
I live in San Diego and there was a 6.0 quake not too far just the other... Didn't even wake me up.
Relax
The new capital would be in Georgia? Georgia? Man, I'm glad I'm on the west coast. Apparently we won't be left to try and pick up the pieces!
People, Jack's post is an obvious joke. He is clearly kidding around. Seriously, how dense you are people making fun of him when really you are making fools of yourself by taking his post seriously.
WoW super like the Washington part ...a lot ...will there be a Sequel ? like no IRS , no Government ...keep up the good work ...and have the prop boys move the sun a little ...gets too hot here in Florida
I didn't realize all the doomsday hype would revolve around the united states. Clearly it should, since we're the only country stupid enough to buy into all this nonsense.
Sadly – You Americans arent the only ones stupid enough to "buy into" this c*ap – I have 3 frightened children who dont want to go to school this morning because some stupid "childrens" TV scared the s*it out of them last night..
And I said "its all bull**it, just like god and hell and santa and baby J and.. the the other dozen end-f-th-worlds there have been in your short lifetimes – and the solstice is passed anyway.." And they said "yes.. but they say it might be tomrrow.." - Well, thats ok then – says I .. No reason not to go to school today!
First, it is quit obviously a joke. those off you who took this seriously and insulted the OP because of this should now hang your heads in shame.
second, my IQ has just been decreased alot by reading the amount of pure crap that is in some of your comments. this is a news website is it not. and news is for what? thats right, news is to let you know what is going on around the rest of the world. and news thereby increases your knowledge base. but along come you lot and write your thoughtless comments and instead of increasing my knowlegde ive found it to be decreasing.
third, OP im sure if i was american i would find this joke good, but as i am not im just not getting it.
Where's my "like" button?? Oh phooey, forgot I wasn't on facebook!
I guess if you believe the Mayans were sophisticated enough to even make a calendar
like that, without some help. It just does not add up.
Wow look at the stir you caused Jack. One joke=dozens of DB replies I hope you're happy. LOL can't wait for the next doomsday to hear what's in store.
And STILL...right-wing whack jobs are whining.
Wow. that was great...
I'm seeing ufo stuff everywhere. What is happening???
Just stop fear mongering.
Clearly Jack, your information is irrelevant. Let NASA be the judge of what happens.
5pm 21 Dec in New Zealand and all is well. Lovely sunny day of 25 degrees Celcius with humidity nearing 80-90% in Auckland. Nice typical summers day. No transcendental enlightenment and no hell fire and brimstone, no massive earthquakes or asteroid. Ok we still have 7 hours of the day left. See you all tomorrow.
You just rehashed the plot of Superman: The Movie. No end to the world.
imay be..we had a short day of living in this planet.. but we try to survive when its be done so be prepared always..
I am sure that all you predict will happen during the next hundred milion years or so. Don't hold your breath, Jack.
That would make an awesome movie!
Interesting, ALL based on major fault lines in America; the question is when. I am more worried about the years 2013 -2015; why? Jesus said in Matthew 24 of the bible about the end of days and signs to watch for "But immediately after the tribulation of those days THE SUN WILL BE DARKENED, AND THE MOON WILL NOT GIVE ITS LIGHT, AND THE STARS WILL FALL from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.".
NASA has confirmed four lunar eclipses (moon becomes red) will occur on God’s annual Holy Days during Passover and Sukkot in the years 2014 and 2015, and two solar eclipses (sun will be darkened) on Nisan 1 and the Feast of Trumpets in those years!
There's a problem with your little story line! I believe I have been hearing earthquakes here in Georgia. For all we know it might just be a stock market crash or a bunch of babies may be born! Did you ever think of that?!?!?!
A few more minutes till we find out if Jack is right or not.
13 minutes
@ Jack, you sir, are disguisitng, you want to half the people die in the country just because they DARE to think just little different than you. They are still americans even if they think differently that you and your circle of hate.
@hugh ...you need to calm down. I think the only one spewing hate here is you. Jack made no mention of hate in his "little circle". How can you read what he wrote and get so worked up?
How about Jack's statement: "Blue States now only remain in history books .... Camera ... Action !" Doesn't that give you a hint that it is Jack's hidden desire in his sub-conscience that all Dems disappear from the face of the earth? If that doesn't demonstrate hate I do not know what does.
Marita and Hugh, just because someone thinks that blue states will be wiped out by NATURAL disasters, doesn't mean that they hate blue states. If Jack hated liberals, he wouldn't give them any warning at all and just let them perish. But I DO think that those who see hate under every rock and behind every tree may well be closet haters themselves. By the way, I don't think that anything unusual is going to happen on 12/21/12.
Marita, give it up... You clearly missed the boat....
man, republicans really do want total control or a civil war eh. they just deny their hatred. guess what... Obama is black.... yea, it's true.
Um...Marita? Jack was just proposing a draft of "2012 2/The Day After Tomorrow 2: What If It Happened Like This" that will be directed by Roland Emmerich. (If you make the movie you can kill off whomever you wish, or make any political statement subtle or otherwise and it's art.)
Jeff are you Jack's boyfriend or somthing? I'm thinking so.... Better hurry up and get married before the world ends so u two can enjoy your honeymoon at the end of the world! Congrats h0m0s!
Not that there's anyhting wrong with that, for you guys. Not for me!
MacInBlack1970
You are so mature that I think I might be in Love! Barf...
This is why when I grow up I'm gonna be a libertarian!
Hugh buddy, take the the blue pill and release your mind.
Are you whining?
Wow, really hard to believe that some of your are not smart enough to see Jack was obviously joking.
THIS is why we cannot afford to cut education spending.
Another video for ponderance;

@Hugh, HA! democrats still can't spell **disgusting
How dumb are you? haha Cause he think different you think he can't spell. It's called "misspelling". I hate Republicans, you're the worst kind of people. You guys don't like to help people, you're to damn selfish. You don't like to give rights to people that doesn't affect your life or anyone around them such as gay marriage and abortion.
Yes, because your name and comments are just the type of endearing solidarity that allows us all to express our thoughts and opinions without prejudice
it's too, brainiac.
Oh god you are such a 'tard. When your tagline is "FU Republicans" you lose all credibility. I for one (as a republican) only tend to take people seriously (regardless of political affiliation) when they can 1) state a problem clearly, 2) concede that there is an opposing view, and 3) convince me that their view is better. Moron.
I'm a Rrepublican and I give to others. I also support ALL the rights every person has in this country. you must have very low self esteem to have such hatered for others.you should get some therapy since you dems already have us paying for it.
FU, you are an idiot!!!! I am a republican and give to people all the time. What I am tired of is helping people that will not help themselves..Tthis has to be one of the most ignorant statements I have seen in a while.
If that is so, then why do conservatives give more to charity than liberals do? Don't believe me? Look it up in the far left-of-center New York Times for yourself! Google "New York Times Bleeding Heart Tightwads".
yeaaa, A church and the NRA is not a Charity.
Does poor grammar, missing words, and incorrect pronoun usage also indicate a Democrat? Because if so...FU nailed it. Dude...what a total Democrat.
@summero
As a democrat I offer my apologies for FU, it seems though that more and more people people like FU, b real and whoever b real was responding to do not know that politics do not belong in every single thread.
You lost again republiCANTS....
Get over it, and stop getting in the way!
So, just because you're a Republican, you think you're better than Democrats? Just because he misspelled ONE word? You are obviously a very ignorant man. And a very stupid one, if you back the Republicans.
I could say the same thing about those that back the dems. When are you dems going to stop spewing hatred and calling everyone that doesn't believe in unicorns and rainbows a moron.
Signed a Republican that does not believe in any god, supports gay rights, is pro-choice but hates the concept of wealth redistribution via excessive taxation and the out of control government spending.
The Mayans cannot even predict the demise of their own culture and tradition, and nation, let alone see the end of the world tsk tsk tsk.
Well... they never predicted the end of the world. Some dumb scientist thought the world was going to end after the calendar ended. He probably thought the world end every Jan. 1st. Beginning of a new year.
No "dumb scientists" involved. Only people who are need to fantasize about the end of the world.
Sorry "FU Republicans" (I HATE your tagline btw) but I do agree with your post. ANyone running out to buy guns or water is a moron. Even die hard Christians should know that according to the Bible, none of us are going to know when the end of the world will come – period. This whole thing is so stupid. I can't believe that people are worried about a rogue planet or asteroid or nuclear war. COme one! We would all see that coming. At least use something credible like a gamma ray burst pointed at earth to fall back on to support your paranoia. This is getting stupid.
I think European imperialism and disease had to factor in there.
kind of like going to see a fortune teller how good are they really when you knock on the door and they "ask who is it?"
There is no proof that even Mayan predicted this. These are predictions from people who want to sensationalize end of world scenario and make money out of it.
Obama's answer would be to raise taxes. That fixes all things.
You're a sad, pathetic, simpleton.
That's Obama's answer to everything.
Another fake palintwit. Only a pathetic ass would plagiarize someone else's screen name. You must be a teabagger.
A New Era Will Start On The 21th Of December 2012. An Era of evolution of our minds although nothing will happen physically.
An Era for the better of Mankind I hope...
Doesn't THAT happen every Christmas? (at least in civilized countries)
I agree with you little bird, there are already big changes going on all over the globe and that makes me greatly greatful to be here right now to experience this spectacular change. I am excited for the future of humankind and have hope we will make radical changes for the best of everyone. May love fill everyone's hearts.
My biggest hope, prayer, wish..whatever anyone wants to call it, is that your sentiments will infect the rest of our population. I too feel positive about our future and refuse to give in to the hate and negativity. Every single day is a chance to show someone else (by example) that life truly does get better with positive thoughts, actions and energy.
Keep spreading that joy! It's my main goal in life.
Well said Little Bird, 2012-21-12 will be a new beginning for all of us.
Ditto!
Bless you, little bird, love is contagious if it is allowed to spread. Search the Bolivian prime minister's speech about his beliefs. Truly wonderful and positive.
Ehem...didnt NASA also track Santa Claus and cover up Rosewell? Now they want to rain on our EOTW parties...
Its just another day. the only thing special about it is that it is the winter solstice. Red or blue, if you believe the world is going to end tomorrow, you're either nuts or gullible beyond all reason.
The most paranoid doomsters of all are the governments, because they have been building underground cities, bases inside mountains, and seed vaults (like the one in Norway) round the clock for decades. Not to mention implementing emergency response systems fit for an apocalypse. If there was nothing to any of these rumors and we are safe for future centuries, why are they even bothering? People get laughed at for prepping with a couple months worth of food, yet here you have the mots elite of our military and non-elected officials prepping to survive decades underground? Ha.
A bad thing that could naturally happen to our planet is an asteroid hit. If it does happen, obviously the folks within the blast radius are dead. The rest of the planet will be fine ... except for the loss of the sun for a minimum of 2 months to as long as two years. Unfortunately during this time a chain reaction will take place – the plants will die -> the animals that eat the plants will die -> the animals that eat the animals will die. Obviously humans will be fine since we can easily store enough food to last however long. But get used to being a Vegetarian for a while
The end of the world? nah, I couldn't be so lucky.
Are they going to create a new calendar? Is the days and its arrangement will be changed? Wondering...
You have all been lied to. Every conspiracy theory about 2012 is false. So here is what will really happen.
On 12/21/2012 at precisely 11:11 PM a huge rift will open up in between dimensions. When this rift opens out of it will step every imaginary character every concieved from brave Odysseus to Superman. Now before you think this is "cool" let's not forget the other side of the coin. Humanity will continue to exist for approximately 58 minutes after the Imaginary Universe comes into existence. At the stroke of Midnight USest Mickey Mouse will storm the Magic Kingdom with his terrible facist army of Stormtroopers, Pac Men, and Klingons. The minute Dictator Mouse sits on the Disney throne all of humanity will immediately vanish from the face of the Earth.
Humankind will become entirely imaginary and the Imaginary Characters will become fully real. Humanity will then proceed to be written about and used in movies and video games which will get worse and worse as years go by and the Imaginary People develop better special effects. As special effects become more important with each passing decade Humanity now turned imaginary will begin to lose its plot and purpose gradually until it becomes entirely pointless and stupid. Nothing can be done to stop this, so you cannot prepare for it. The government has known about this for year and in exchange for keeping us in the dark will be the subject of future blockbusters.
That's it. Somebody has to do art of Evil Overlord Mickey and his army of Pac Men and Klingons.
No, We have arranged a truce with the Klingons through Ambassador Worf.
Michael Bay, is that you??
I thought the rumor was that the "grays" that the mayan, ancient egyptians, vikings, cavemen, etc all wrote about and depicted in drawings were supposed to be coming back to claim the Earth tomorrow? IF this crap doesn't happen... Well i just don't know how i'm supposed to pay back the 3 month $50k loan i took out last week with that really nice italian guy in Vegas.
what a bunch of nonsense if you wanna know about the end of the go to God who has the answer
'God' is the biggest bunch of nonsense there is!!
But god doesn't exist
Which god?
pathetic ass fake palintwit
Congress is currently in negotiations on legislation that would modify the Mayan Calendar to postpone the end of the world by one year. Dems and Republicans feel sure they can come to a compromise before the deadline.
I am laughing so hard at these comments, omfg. On another note, I personally don't believe any of this crap, but I am wary that there will be mass rioting throughout the world. You know how crazy some people can get, especially if they believe this doomsday stuff.
Every year I look at my desk calender and it ends on Dec 31... I panic, I freak out, then I remember that I have a new calender for the next year.. all works out and we are all saved, because I started to use a new calender.
This Guy ^^ right here
ok. I completly agree with you but to look at december first and realize there is no more calendar is stupid. I would think you are smater than that. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LMFAO ROTFL!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you teel me where to find an app to reset my Myan calendar???
Its called "Mayan Doomsday Widget"
Guys,
I don't believe tomorrow will be the end but I do believe I figured out the Earth is routinely struck by orbital dark matter particles expelled from the Sun that are orbiting through and around the Earth triggering our weather, sinkholes and seismic activity. No joke. We tend to believe they are meteorites because they glow hot coming in then disappear.
Darkmattersalot.com
My underpants are routinely struck by 'dark matter' too...
That’s it, Tom, lead with your best material. Once you’ve got ‘em laughing, then you can trot out the low-brow stuff.
Actually, planets ARE aligning on December 21, and a NASA spacecraft is poised to witness it from Saturn. See http://www.nightwise.org/blog/calendars-end/ for rare alignment to be recorded by astronomers. It's not the end of time, just the end of another calendar.
The planets are NOT aligning on the 21st. Quit lying.
Actually, they will align, just as they do every December.
Yum
People who believe this are too stupid for words.
Maybe you’re just giving up too soon!
How about an interpretive dance? Or maybe a short skit using anatomically-ambiguous facilitator puppets? Surely you could find some way to insult them!
The end of times will be the salvation for those who diligently wait for our savior to return to earth.
It's just great to see some people who are so desperate to be seen as special. They make up things wholesale, turning themselves in to rather inept liars. Jack is such a cutie, with spewing the usual revenge fantasy of many conservative Christians. Alas, if it's the end of the world they are seeking to support their religious nonsense, they'll be so sadly disappointed. They'll of course change their minds on what date it will be and make more and more excuses why they failed, just like Pat Robertson and the presidential election.
It's rather like watching cranky three year olds when all of the "end times" nonsense comes out and some Christians get off on threatening anyone who dares disagree with them.
You don't seem to be able to tell the difference between a threat and a warning, Club. I don't believe that anything unusual will happen on 12/21/12, but what Jack said was clearly meant to be a warning, not a threat.
A warning is based on reality. A threat, especially in this case, is the mental masturbation of someone who thinks that a magical god wil do their bidding and who has no scrap of evidence for his pathetic wishful thinking.
Do you not recognize SATIRE when you see it? Some of the responses, equally satirical, have been outrageous. This thread has made my day, albeit, sadly, my last. [Satire Filter Off]
Sorry, claiming that one is a poe and that one should magically know when "satire" is used is just sad . What an excuse when there are plenty of people who are quite serious about such garbage. Try again.
@club ... again I ask: can you not recognize satire when you see it? Jack was mocking all of the doomsayers with his tongue planted firmly in his cheek. Granted recognition of satire usually requires an education greater than kindergarten so maybe that is what is holding you up. To quote an earlier poster, take the blue pill and release your mind. What else can we educated people of the planet do when faced with all of the fear about the Mayan calendar? I think that mocking it in a way quite satirical epitomizes the foolishness of the whole thing. But that's just my opinion; yours may vary, regardless of how misinformed it may be.
If, and I mean a BIG if, something happens, it will be man-made. You have millions/billions of people of all faiths believing doomsday is approaching. That we are entering "End Times". Some of these people are in positions of power and control. They want "End Times"; their 'savior' will come back. What better way to bring Him back than light the fuse that brings about doomsday? If not this made-up date, another one will follow. Too many people who believes this stuff for it to not someday happen...
Unless you hear a trumpet and see Jesus it ain't gonna happen.
...around here,that's referred to as an '0rgasm'~
Of a polar shift is possible since it already happened some 77,000 years ago and it could happen in as little as 18 to 36 hours. This doesn't mean that it will, but it is possible!
First off, the "polar shift" you refer to is actually a swap of the MAGNETIC poles, not the AXIS. Magnetic shifts do happen fairly regularly, the 77,000 years you state sounds about right. However, the shift does not happen as quickly as you state and is proceeded by an extended period of magnetic field lines "snapping" ... which we have not seen. So I think we're safe ...
One thing that isn't mentioned in this article is what would happen if we got hit by a massive solar flare? It probably won't happen tomorrow but it is something that we should be very concerned about. It will happen eventually (and not in the far, far future). We have no protection from such an event. We could lose our satellites and most of the electrical grid which would take months to years to fix due to critical components not being available. This would result in mass starvation, riots and chaos.
Christians who know the Bible should know not to try to predict the end of the world..we were never given a timeline and it says not to try to guess. Im neither a Donkey or Elephant and both sides have their issues. People should be free to make their own choices which has been a Republican issue, but not handed every single little thing like the Democrats do. I dont like paying taxes so other people live off of me. I like the medical program, wish it was more intensive. Maybe take a page off the Canadians for a change. There is too much venom on both sides and if it keeps going the posioning of our society will have no antidote. God Bless everyone even those who dont believe
one "word" for everybody– Y2K
Funny, I thought when we fell off the fiscal cliff it would all end....
CNN is a fa66ot
I think the biggest threat is self-fulfilling prophecy. I hear that this delusion is big in Russia. If the wrong person goes over the edge he could get his finger on the wrong button.
There is some truth to what you say svann. Some religious fundamentalists want it to happen and will hasten it. In their self righteousness they think they will be going to Heaven to be with God.
At least I'll have a good excuse for not meeting deadlines after Friday . . . "My Mayan long-count calendar ran out and I haven't been able to find a new one anywhere. . . "
Congress is currently in negotiations on legislation that would modify the Mayan Calendar to postpone the end of the world by one year. Dems and Republicans feel sure they can come to a compromise before the deadline.
What a retard you are....ya, all republicans dont care about people and eat babies too! You are soo dumb.....you lefties actually believe this crap?
Jack is right! Get your affairs in order!
Even it is WERE to happen, the media (which is controlled by 5 corporations worldwide) would NEVER tell us that it would because that would induce worldwide panic and their job is to keep all the sheep in check. Believe what you want, but to all those people who routinely believe everything the "news" tells them, well then I feel real sorry for you!
You have to be a complete freaking idiot to believe this clown. I mean come on. Reading the article about the Mayan descents in Mexico feel that it is a begining of a new era. That may be true, I don't know. I think if the "end" was happening we would not be given a date. But only a sign. So that's all think realistic now, please.
Odd, no reference to any biblical "end of world" events.
Whether the world ends on Dec 21st, during or after Armageddon, or finally with the death of our star should not affect how we live our lives today. If you want to spend today fighting, laughing, loving, hating, stealing or giving then thats what you should do. But with each of those actions are consequences, sometimes those consequences are from the people around you and sometimes they are from within. Choose actions that provide consequences you desire.
The Mayan calendar does not predict the end of the world. The Mayan elders speak of a new era based on love and compassion rather than violence, power and greed. Most people are gathering with the desire and intention of creating this future, which I think is what most people want for themselves and their children. It would be nice if the news media would report on this rather than the ridiculous.
I'm going to get a case of beer, sit on my front porch and just watch it unfold.
I dont know about the mayans or any calendar, but i am certain that JESUS of Nazareth is LORD and is coming, but as the scriptures record : NO ONE KNOWS THE DAY NOR HOUR, not even the angels or the son, let them who have ears prepare for the Glorious coming of the MESSIAH. SHALOM.
Its already 1 am in my country, and I drinking beer and watching wwe!! its said that the world temperature gonna increase, well damn it I am freezing to death...
Its probably not the end of the world. The universe is larger and vaster than we can even comprehend. I have a theory that the universe is like a giant globe but we live on the inside of it and its inside edges are like mirrors. The distances are so vast (light years) that we will never be able to travel them due to laws of physics as yet uncovered. So when we look at galaxies and stars and planets in other systems what we really see is our own galaxy stars and planets in stages of development. This is why there are no extra terrestrials or signals. We are looking at a finite number of celestial bodies (within our reach) and their reflections of past light? What lies beyond my sphere of influence universe? God? The Forbidden Zone? An alternate universe? Antimatter? We may never know.
Imagine you are watching the guys make the calender from a round stone. One looks at the other and says, "What do you think will happen when this is found many centuries from now and they are able to read this?" The other guy says, ":Oh, they'll think the end is near and sacrifice a virgin to satisfy the Gods and make a new calender!"
Sounds in line with what a pagan Mayan priest might think when making a calendar.
Pagan Mayan? Weren't the Pagans in Europe? The Mayans were in Central America
Definition of PAGAN
: heathen 1; especially: a follower of a polytheistic religion (as in ancient Rome)

Not-so-bright people have been predicting dooms day forever. Hey, we're still here. Get a life and enough with this sillyness.
Hey guess what? It's 12-21-12 in Asia right now.. no signs of world ending events so far! Will be going to work tomorrow as usual.
You might want to wait until its 12-22-2012 in South America. Just sayin.
central america
It would be funny if the mayans were off by a few days or months and we were too stupid to figure it out. Wouldnt that be the ultimate slap in the face from God? Even worse than electing Obama a 2nd time?
Hey look I came up with a plot for the new Dawn of the Dead movie. Someone call George Romero.
There is something worse than electing Obama to a 2nd term? End of the world? Bring it on! I am still stuck on this Obama getting re-elected problem, and probably won't get over it. There are just no drugs strong enough to stop the pain I will be feeling after this nightmare comes to full fruition.
I recommend the Pineapple Headband. LOL
I thought tomorrow was the day everyone turns gay. Dam that must have been a dream.
I think youre confusing 12-21-2012 with 11-14-2012.
That little squiggle at the end of the Mayan Calendar that they can't figure out says "REPEAT"
It says "place virgins heart here"
Isn't that the Mayan sign for "ad infinitum"?
Read the bible and stop looking towards man for answers to questions we have no place on answering nor holding the knowledge towards. Dare refute this fact and you shall surely forever burn in hell without your repent of your foul and accursed mind.
Thanks but lately I am into non-fiction.
You are scary Marcus, really, really scary.
Umm I don't see alien invasion being discredited!
Dang, dude! Now this segment has hit EVERY possible Roland Emmerich scenario. You just had to bring up Aliens when he's thinking about making an ID4 2, didn't you? Now he'll get all worked up and try to make it some sort of statement about global warming or nuclear weapons that attracts the aliens and then we'll all be disappointed again like the last few end-of-the-world-Emmerich films.
I would much rather fight aliens for my life than for my job.
On the 21st John Boehner will compromise on taxes for the rich and Karl Rove's head will implode, forming a black hole and dooming the world.
No matter what we do the problem wont be solved by taxing the rich or poor-politicians will simply spend and waste more money and we will pay more for the outlandish debt they ran up.
we r nat GOD if it the world ends we cannot do anything to stop it
n we r nat GOD to know if we r if the world is endin or nat
Its not as if we can leave the world we are too selfish to even make the travel arrangements. Lately I am a firm believer than any intelligent God would want to imprison us here on Earth on purpose to prevent us from corrupting the other unspoiled races and beings of the universe with our evil and greed.

The nice thing about the world ending is that everything you buy in stores is reduced by 50% the day after.
you're all idots
Let us assume Jacks 'Earthquake [fantasy] Hypothesis' is true, the blue states are all gone (also most of Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Missouri) fast forward just one generation... The entire US collapses due to massive inbreeding, religious wars, and moonshine still explosions! Ohnoes!!
F it!! We all have opinions!! Just let time tell an let all these theories rest!!
My refrigerator died yesterday. I say there is no greater indicator of an apocalypse than that. In truth, real truth, some aspect of our current reality will end tomorrow. Some particle, a pion, K+, boson, who knows what, maybe a whole whopper of protons will annihilate themselves and we won't even be aware of it. Although, Sarah Palin will probably consider it a liberal opportunity to ignore her, the universe has its own plans. There are many dimensions postulated that we may not be considering that will be destroyed tomorrow, so be optimistic. At least for my refrigerator, the end of the world is tomorrow; sometime between 8 and 12 when a new one gets delivered. Unfortunately it is not for me, as I am stuck in this freakin' wheelchair until...
Just so funny that NASA's best answer to make us feel better and more secure is that since we cannot see any new asteroid or new planet coming toward earth, that they are none existing
what a joke, just like when driving a car, its not because you don't see a car coming that it wont hit you... what about an asteroid coming out from a black hole ? or what about a new black hole that will through out stellar gargabes such as asteroids and etc...
I think its pretty stupid to make people believe that just because you dont see it coming toward us, that it wont come. maybe it will come so fast at such speed that it could take only 30min to hit the earth...
peace out Im going to ski tomorrow anyway
Dude, there are a lot of bong hits in 30 minutes.
match made in heaven
An asteroid out of a Black Hole? Are you nucking futz? Only Romulan starships can come out of a Black Hole. Everyone knows that!
But seriously, it is apparent that you know the term but not the physics. The Black Hole, per se, is a singularity, a point of infinite mass (hence, gravity); it is the EVENT HORIZON that many think of as the Black Hole. The Event Horizon is that radius about the singularity where the gravity well is so steep that not even light, travelling at 186,000 miles PER SECOND, cannot escape.
Tip: If you start all the videos, mute the commercial, pause the videos once the commercial is over you can watch them all uninterrupted. I know CNN has to pay the bills somehow, but a commercial before EVERY video? And usually the SAME video.

Besides, you mixed your metaphors, likely on purpose ... for which I applaude you.
So what really happened to Chicken Little?
Mayan was stupid generation of ppl who killed ppl for thier imaginary god and in this day and age the stupids believe what those murderer said, I hate mexians, blacks and jews.
funny how an asteroid just streaked between the Earth and the Moon without NASA noticing until almost the last minute...just a few days ago...and also the three large active volcanos right now, but I think the end of the 13th baktun just leads to the beginning of the 14th ion the Mayan long count calendar
it was just a joke, ease up on jack... if u take such a blatently fictious story that someone threw in as absurdity ontop off absurdity as truth and get this angry... my friends u need help!! joke away jack joke away... and by the way, very few true christians beleive in any of this garbage because the bible plainly states that when the end of this time comes the Lord will wake us all up and we will know at the same time... dont remember receving that wake up call yet... and no i dont go to church, but im literate so i read, stupid liberals, enjoy spending your welfare checks on supplies to "survive the end of the world" cuz that makes sense
Mart. Dont you think the ultra powerful and rich and influential would want a plan in case something ever happened. Of course there are multiple underground sites setup for such people. But that does not mean tomorrow is the end of the world. such places have been around for a long time. Just not as well setup.... If you truly believe that please feel free to send me some stuff for christmas. We have absolutely nothing to give each other and i have been looking for work for over a year. Lets see how many people believe what they say and get rid of the things they normally wouldnt. Ha. Bestwowgoldmakingguide yahoo
What has to be understood about those who believe in a doomsday is that they want to believe in a doomsday. They will always rationalize why it did not happen and then make another prediction that it will happen. Perhaps they are the perennial optimists.
Monument 6 at Torturego explains that how, on Dec 21 2012, the Mayan god Bolon Yokte descends to the earth. What that means and if its physical, I don't know. But the god Bolon Yokte is present during world creation events, and was recorded to be there on the last creation which was in 3114 bc.
Other theories point to a 3 days of darkness period beginning on the 21st.
Ultimately we will know in 1 day.
God bless!
This End of the World theories sound so superficial from the on set. Even if science can't prove everything, it can prove this.
A huge crater is in the Indian top right corner.
One of my favorite prediction styles is when people pick a time for the end. it seems to be that they believe the only time zone that is important is the one they live in... Until the majority of people on this planet are able to get away from the me or i mentality we will face our own doomsday issues like the one faced in the sixties where we were close to creating a very bad scenario.
Well you DO have a black president so you can't rule out a comet or asteroid strike.
C'mon folks, Jack and I are obviously both joking... A little Saturnalia satire, if you will! But seriously, an asteroid out of a black hole?!?! What do they teach in schools anymore?!
I don't know how these comments got all politically oriented...we all know the world isn't gonna end tomorrow...we don't know when or IF it even will. Other than that, stop politicizing this whole hoax and move on with your lives.
Hey guy's relax and enjoy your life...Don't worry be happy. Life is too short but there is no way that world will end on Dec 21 2012...or Dec 23 2012 ............
a big fat phallus ridden by Diane Sawyer will be entering earths orbit and landing simultaneously in the mouths of Lindsey Lohan and Britney Spears details at 10
@Really, i like what you have to say however id like to point out that the world will definately burn out someday. although i suppose a few billion years may not be worth discussing at this point
also although paying bills next month worries me more than if the world will end this year i would like to point out that something such as an eight plus earthquake could happen at any time in california and it could be regarded as the beggining of end and the nuts that tought knowing all would feel rightous at that point.
Normally I just read and don't comment, but I'm pretty sure Jack just described the movie 2012. Which, by the way, is hilarious to watch if you know ANYTHING about continental shifts, or other geographical phenomenon.
I'm sure you guys wouldn't even think of politics if he hadn't mentioned a color, and this entire argument is as laughable as the rumors themselves. If the world IS going to end, it's because people won't ever get over themselves and stop thinking in color. So please, for the world's sake, knock it off. I'm tired of seeing every article I read have a political debate in the comments, related to the topic or not. We're all human, and that's all that matters. Everyone makes stupid choices.
Its going to be an alien invasion from outer space.
In some parts of the world it is already well into the 21st so i guess they are safe

An asteroid passed between the earth and the moon the size of the one that crushed 800 square miles in russia in the early 1900's. Nobody saw it until a day before it happened. Thats scary. Who is to say another is not behind it?
I find it amusing that scientists think that just because they can "measure" certain things in the cosmos that it means to them that somehow the events are going to unfold as they predict. Science ends up being wrong 99% of the time anyway. They are just really good at covering up the mistakes and promoting the events they think they have correct (which later end up being wrong most of the time anyway.)
In short, scientists are just as ignorant as everyone else. They are just better at covering up their ignorance through Greek and Latin based words.
Yeah, who listens to highly educated scientists who've spent 30-40 years studying things you wouldn't even be able to read.
I'd rather listen to a high school dropout hill-billy like RSM who asserts that 99% of things scientists say is wrong.
Let me guess RSM: I suspect you are one of those Jesus Freaks who is mad at scientists because of Darwin's theory of Evolution. Bingo!
Their description of what the significance of the galactic alignment is inaccurate. What the mayans based the long count calendar on happens on every 26000 years. It has to do with the way the earth wobbles and the effect of how you see the starts in the sky. Personally I don't think anything is going to happen, but give the Mayans props for looking at the stars more accurately than CNN's experts.
The only way to prevent doomsday is for everyone to pretend that it's just a regular day.
@Secrtsqurl, in the early 1900s there were no space telescopes nor satelites or other space eqiupment to monitor what is going on.
I wouldn't mind seeing DC get destroyed, but only if all the politicos are there.
@Archyle The Mayans NEVER predict the world would end. The calendar only resets. NO ONE (You sound like the Mayans have complete control) can ever predict the exact time the world would end since every time zone is different. Even if there is an exact time the world will end, the time has to be by the International Date Line.
I dont think anything wil happen the 21st. but i do think that we are in for a bad year. i beleive the weatheer is gonna get worse and worse and that is what will eventually do us under. provided the goverment dont release a bug on us. or a plague of some sort. which is what i do beleive will happen
There is another little known doomsday prediction which states that cosmic energy of unknown origin will force people to actually care about what Fareed Zakaria thinks.
There were a lot of different different prediction about the end the world but none of those prediction come true so far. why ? most of the prediction were technically baseless like Nibiru. But it has very bad impact to the people who are not well educated enough to understand about it.
Everyones comments are GOBBILY GOOP
The funniest posts here are the angry responses from people who didn't understand the posts that upset them were tongue-in-cheek jokes. Lighten-up, Francis!
@Alexgallant, items that are sucked into a black hole stay there including light. I think you would have slightly better luck suggesting that a theoretical worm hole will appear and out will come something with a trajectory of earth.
All of this reminds me of the radio broadcast war of the worlds. The panic that ensued was crazy. Bestwowgoldmakingguide yahoo com
Disappointed they didn't have the one where the dead rise out of their graves and are taken to a paradise. That is the most common doomsday myth.
Well, that totally sucks! I was going to get my hair did and canceled a few weeks ago for this "event". That's the last time I believe anything on the Internet. Oh, what's this? I can increase my erection by 4"?
BRB!
Everyone is so Dumb if it is the end of the world No one will ever know cause you will all be DEAD simple as that.....
That’s awesome! The way you can just cut through all the BS like that! I bet Ockham’s Razor is holding its bladehood cheap right about now!
All i have to say this guy really get all of you going lmfao..
For the doomsdayers again i a small donation of what you wont need anymore would be well received. if the world does this year wouldn you like to know you made a family happy by having done something good before the end. if something does not happen then you still have done something and given to a family that would not have anything this reason otherwise so it would still be a good deed that would be very well received.
Well I say look up Maria Divine Mercy on http://www.thewarningsecondcoming.com
They said to look out for false prophets but who am I to say her messages from Jesus are not real
I trust in him and strive to be a good person everyday
If something happens tomorrow in the sky and you see a cross know that was a sign from him
say your prayers and repent
he told us not to be afraid
If the Mayans knew the future=why they ll gone!!!!
No offense to the Mayans, of course, but I’ve always preferred the “glass half full” philosophy and adhered to the future=why not. However, I didn’t fully understand the last part of your sentence, so I might have missed something.
If the Mayans were such good predicting the fture, why aren't they alive now?
I’m going to go way out on a limb here and say HMOs - or lack of adequate border control, one of the two. I never did such well in History.
I really dont want to get into the middle of religion here but for eveyone sighting scripture and people portraying direct spiritual knowledge of a very soon to be event are there not seven seals and a false prophet amoong other things such as no man shall know the time of their demise otherwise are we not skipping things to feed our own fears? Im starting to think my posts are not getting or just are worded lamely? Happy holidays however long it lasts
Since people are so fascinated by the "End of the World" and try to figure it will end by every myth, ancient culture, Nostradamus, religious, computer programs or whatever else they can to explain the "End of Times"-someone really needs to educate the masses! The simple truth is 'yes' it will end; however, not tomorrow. Try 4.5 to 5 Billion years down the road from now. Our Sun will consume all of its remaining fuel...(BTW: the Sun is mostly composed of Hydrogen and Helium.) at that point in time, our Sun will start to expand and slowly start to heat up and burn our poor planet Earth into a ball of embers. It is for our future ancestors to come up with a plan to 'pack up and move' from our dearly beloved planet Earth to find new accommodations. With the nearest Star 'Proxima Centauri' being 4.2 light-years away from our Sun; our future ancestors challenge to find a hospitable new home will be as immense as the Universe! (BTW: Light travels at 186,000 miles per second; 671 million miles per hour!) With light taking 8 minutes, 19 seconds to travel from our Sun to Earth. The challenge would be to build the ultimate 'Noah's Ark' which could withstand contingencies travelling at the speed of light-(ie travelling at such speeds, a grain of sand would tear completely through our future ancestors 'Noah's Ark') ;however, with the rate of technological advances over the past twentieth (20th) Century and going from grounded on Earth to flying in the air and with other awesome steps forward for 'Humankind' one can only remain very hopeful and very optimistic about our future ancestor's travel plans! So do not worry my friends about the end of the World tomorrow for I expect fair winds and Sunlight coming up over that Mountain in the morning! `jo~
Doomsday already happened 12 years ago...when GW Bush was elected as president.
The Mayans don't like The Sons of Anarchy.

Watch RT for the real news
Dear all, why we human argue about "The Story End of the world" just a story lines by people whose days and is not happen anyway by today or even thousand years to come...as long our world live in peace, we had nothing to worry about it.
Hahaha, you're all gonna die while I'm safe in my underground nuclear shelter with a radiation suit, a machine gun, and food/water to last 20 years. Suck itt
i like turtles
Dude... Wait.... What ?¿?¿?
will it blend, that is the question?
Waaaay too much time being spent by the media on idiots who believe this Mayan calendar crap.
Login on on dial up...from newzealand the sheep and moon are glowing red. Quick before its to late run out into the street mow down any non preper. Hold your M4's as a crucifix its your only hope
Only 17 years until asteroid Apophis gets here then if it doesn't hit it will come back in 2037 Get Ready the world is going to End!! LOL
Nice job Nasa. So that is how many ends we survived so far? Enough to become an annual celebration I believe.
Hey guys I live Aussie, and still kicken. Yep no need to fear
Foolish for those whom think that it is the end of the world on the 21!! There is no day said, for when God is ready he will speak to those whom hear his voice.
How can you hear something that doesn't exist?
Sin will not save you when the end is,many people plan to party thinking that dec 21,2012 it is the end of the world! Very selfish people! Focus on helping others instead of your! self! BE GOOD AND KIND! Help those whom need help!
Please get over yourself. I don't need yr sin bs. U want to know wat a sin is. Religion. More people have died trying to prove that their way is right than any other so called sin . But do you know what, your going to die some day. I don't need an excuse to fear death. I know it's coming someday and I welcome it. Focus on the today and tomorrow not the has and has been. Grow up and realize that you are an animal. You have some kind of superiority complex over everything why? Because you can use a toilet, remember yr just as I am a nuckel dragging ape that can wipe its own but. Clap clap
i dont see timewave zero on there, still a possibility folks, google timewave zero and tell me what u think, it could mean infinite enlightenment for all of us.
Well the NRA will talk today.
My friends there is infinite possibility to how and when this Planet will end, 2012 is just another year of number and has no effect on phenomenon. It is with great scientific research to conclude that today, December 21 2012, Jesus will rise again. Like every December, the moon, the Earth and the Milky Way Galaxies will line up and create a doorway between our worlds and all the others out there and Jesus will walk through the door and make himself known. Tomorrow the Year will be 0001 again and the worst will happen on the 13th of days of the 13th month. Beware evil eas born January 13 1983.
i've survived .. 2012/12/21 11.11GMT lol......................
Everyone go look at the sky it dosen't look right something is wrong
Hey in Aussie all is fine
Whew... what a great story.. I have such a big woody now.. better take care of that, heh...
My best way to describe this is that i personally have been informed that the mayan calender simply restarts evry 5 sum thousand years. maybe this is a new age to be at the most severe. i dont get how this DoomsDay 2012 got conjured up... maybe to save someones career of horrible movies. like 2012 was a pretty bad movie without doubt. end of opinion
iIf you have the guts to survive .. why give up ? other hand we have no exit on this...but it is only a story of the Maya that shock on this time .. be positive of what we are .. and think for the way to do survive if its true..a very lucky person stand on last day ..be the one of them .people.. if theirs a small time that lift .. share the good day and serve a special serving of what we had ..smile lough .. and enjoy living, party . drink the finest wine that you have and share to everyone of this planet.
LOL ... yeah the world ends ... when you die!
he hawways calls me that
We must believe in Jesus christ and we should not be afraid of anything.
Telling people they must believe your opinion about Jesus is no different than a Red Sox fan telling a Yankee fan they must agree the Red Sox are greatest.
Opinions are wonderful – we all have them, and by definition, no one's opinion is wrong.
So, Daniel, nice that you have your beliefs, in this Jesus guy, and it is just as nice that non-believers have their own opinions about science and stuff.
Obviously, none of us will ever know.
i wonder if they predicted the magnetic poles switching which has happened multiple times in the earths history. The proof is on the Atlantic Ocean sea bed where areas of rock have different magnetic alignment the adjacent areas.
Do not be disappointed doomsdayers if the world does not end today, Climate change and resource depletion are looking real good (or bad depending) so you may not have spent all that bunker money for nothing.
Okay, first of all it's always good to plain ahead. Expect the unexpected, get ready for the worse, even if the world don't end today something might happen to put us back, like the electrical grid stopping. I have plenty of coffee to keep me through lol. See drinking some now. Lets just say some type of new sickness goes around. Do you have the medical training or supplies to keep you through? Do you have enough food, if the grid goes out? WHAT IF!? Theirs nothing anybody can do if China decides to send out a nuclear bomb. Only a great few of us actuality plain ahead and have a back up plain if that fails. I am a believer of Jesus Christ I am a Christian and a god lover. He gave us knowledge and power to figure everything out, if their wasn't a reason for it he wouldn't have gave us none of that. If their wasn't for a reason of how we are good at survival, if their was nothing to survive about I love the world we live in, but I'm just saying it's always good to plain ahead!
Well... off to visit your Mother!
Some of these thing are true, however what scientist can say the world roation cant shift in a day. Who ever even said it would be a day, and also you cant say it cant happen if it never happened, and if this alignment happens every year why didnt i ever see it. And please explain persesion
It is utterly amazing to me that people will get all wound up over this so called prophecy which means absolutely nothing and yet ignore or make fun of the real and devastating prophecies about to take place! The horror about to hit this planet and every living thing on it will happen the morning you all wake up and millions of people all over the globe are mysteriously missing! You want to talk about cataclysmic events? A leader in Europe will rise and create world peace. He will be loved by everyone, yet no one will know him! Kind of like Obama. He will be a master Orator. The moment he signs a 7 year peace agreement with Israel, you have 7 years left in human history! Most people have no clue this is going to take place or refuse to believe it, but, it’s going to happen, and happen soon. You can laugh and make fun of all you want, just remember, when the TV, Internet, Radio and every other communication devise is panic stricken with the news about these millions of missing people and you are still here? You won’t be laughing any longer! You may even have your own family members missing. The chances of you surviving the next 7 years, especially the last 3 1/2 years? 99% you won’t. It’s going to be that bad. If the unnatural "natural" disasters don’t kill you, the new wicked world power and its disguised demon hosts will. You might want to think about what you should do to escape this horrible time that is coming, because yes, there is a way out, a way in which you don’t have to die or be tortured and then beheaded this way. The answer is in the bible, the book of John, chapter 3 verses 16 thru 18. Read it. Once you read it, you have no excuse; you need to make a decision. Yes or no, it’s your choice. You choose to live or die, it’s all on you and only you. Think about it, but don’t wait too long, we never know when the door is going to close, but it will be sooner than you might think! How do we know this? Because of the bible prophecies in one hand and a newspaper in the other. It cant get more plain, even to the unbeliever. Look for yourself, read for yourself, we dont have much longer, dont wait. Ask God to open your eyes and reveal the real truth, He will.
To say that obama has made the world a better place or is peaceful is just fallacy. The guy has not done anything....Thats the problem! Im not a fan of Obama. For many reasons though, but hey with all his issues that he is having to go through maybe that is alimently stopping him from doing something stupid. Also there are many interpeatations of where the Anti is suposto come. Some Say Syria. Check out the Dead Sea Scrolls. Or Revalations. But frankly all people who want power, or athorative posistions and do not use it for the service of sacred holy understandings in other words God. Are technically all potentail Anti Christ. If you actually read scipture God is very explainitory of what he believes as rightous. Or serving Gods will and alitmently doing Good. Hate violience, distruction. Aragonce , Ingorance, Pocrastination, Lieing , Deciving and so much more are elements of the ANTI. Because technically its opiset of God. The devil has always wanted us to Avoid worship. Avoid holyness. So too must we aovid Him in reply. In scipture/ Bible you understand exactly were to find Jesus and to indentfy him. And how to Identfy the oppiset We can see the characteristic of the devil. aka EVIL as the name shows In the Gospels. When Jesus was being tempted shortly after baptism.
This is greate because it gives un an understanding of what the Devil is looking for. And how we should avoid him.
But alitmently you too are the factor of FEAR.....Because alitmently you are saying the world is coming to end and how there is no hope afterwords. What a load of crock! If you are truely someone whom has been educated in the bible and a believer of that path. Then you should also have realized that alitmently GOD will not stand for it. And that Jesus will return. There will be 1000 years of peace. The tribes of israel will return, however you believe that to be. And that Gods truth will rule always. That is the main goal! In other words there is most certainly a happy ending to the story. Apprently you decided to leave that out! Read revalation The last three paragraphs.
The end of the world means the day "you" die marks the end of "Your" world . . .You don’t need prophesy, a Book, a PC or a religious nut case to tell you the world is going to end and the Rapture is here. When you die then that is “the day” your world ends plan and simple. How many times have we supposed to have died by now? 10 that I can think of and that goes back to when the Spacelab back in the 80’s was to fall out of the sky and dive into the ocean, the Y2K Bug, The Rapture, Mayan it’s all Bull... OMG We are going to die,, BS, when you pass, that is the day “your world ends” for all those who went out and stocked up on food, battery’s, water, GAS MASKs and bullets for that “Just in case “ happening happens, so to have wasted all that money, but think of it this way, you can use all the Batteries on your kids gifts from Santa (Thank goodness you didn’t die, think of all the money you have lost if you did) and the extra food and water put it all out for your guest that come over for the holidays.
Thats not true, the day "YOU" die, the day you take YOUR last breath on this earth is the day you take your first breath in eternity! You will spend that eternity in one of two places, Heaven or Hell. God did not create hell for people, He created it for the devil and his angels or demons. Why do you think Jesus left heaven and came to this earth to ultimately pay the price YOU and I owe for our sin problem? To save you from ending up in hell. God loves you so much that Jesus was willing to lay down His life so you wouldnt have to. Im talking about the second death not the first. The first is the natural death, the death of our natural bodies. The second death is the death of your soul. Your soul never dies. God is eternal and he created each one of us eternal and uniquely different. When He talks about life and death, He is talking about our eternal life and death. Life being in heaven and eternal death being in hell. You will be fully conscious and your senses at a much higher state in both places. The book of Revelation was written because its a fortelling of future events. Why would God be concerned with telling us about future events? As a warning. We tell our kids "dont touch that its hot!" Why? Because we are mean parents? No, because we are waring them of impending danger. You have a chioce right now while you are alive, a choice to spend your eternity in one of these two places. Just from a human common sense approach, which would you choose? Heaven or Hell?
Andrew Fraknoi, the earths rotation can change in one day, if the moon was obliterated. 👽
Yes, “if” is truly a magical word.
My puppy could mew if it were a kitten. The economy could be great, if it weren't so bad. “Bob” could be a different word, if it had different letters in it. But then I guess we could “if” this thing all day and the Earth’s rotation would still be the same as it is now.
This hoax and others like it come along every year or so, people that didn't pay attention in science classes in school and those with weak minds are susceptible to these hoaxes, unfortunately the History channel and news organizations sensationalize this nonsense to increase their ratings, those that believe this stuff deserve the worry they generate for themselves.
Maybe it is the Orthodox Mayan calendar that we should be concerned with!!
It must be absolute hell to be Sarah Palin. If it was me I'd hop in my car, drive over to the nearest chemical company and jump into a vat of hydrochloric acid.
Honestly, I'm a little disappointed the world didn't end today. I guess we'll have to destroy it ourselves. Oh, wait....
We better know God is great! all these years of people predicting the end of the world over time and we are still here. I am listening to Prophet Jesus p.b.u.h. " No man no not even the angels know when the world will end"
Actually they do Gary, they dont know when Jesus will call His people up in the Rapture. Once the Rapture takes place, it will probably take months for the world to somewhat stabilize. Its when Antichrist signs the peace treaty with Israel, you can count the days till the end at that point, exactly 7 years. Thing is, you dont want to be left behind!
I'm not sure what is more funny: the idea of the 'end of the earth', or a bunch of bloggers on here that cannot tell when other bloggers are joking (i.e Jack).
Wow ... many of you are not the sharpest sticks in the bunch now are you?
Wow..goodmorning ..I mean good afternoon. Go figure, sleep in for the first time in 3yrs...what did I miss?
Thank you, religious people, for sharing your opinions about eternity and God.
And thank you, non-religious people, for telling us about science and death.
It is great that Americans can share their personal opinions. Obviously, none of us will ever know any of these answers.
Just realize you are expressing your own opinion – no different than a Red Sox fan saying "Boston is the best city", and a Yankee fan answering "No, New York is the right city".
SLY,
Its not my opinion, I didnt come up with this. Its what God Himself said. If He said it, you better count on the fact that its going to come to pass! People over millenia have been saying, "You have been saying Jesus is coming back soon! where is he?" The bible says that God is long suffering that no one should perish. He is waiting for the time when people just dont want anything to do with Him. Sound familiar? We have kicked Him out of our schools, our government, our families and our homes, we want to take "In God We Trust" off of our money, you cant put up a cross anywhere, cities across the nation wont even let you put up a Nativity scene? You cant even say MERRY CHRISTMAS anymore! You can get arrested for preaching the Word of God in public, but you can scream Islam from the roof tops and thats ok? The time is coming very soon when God will say, "Ok, you dont want me around anymore? See ya" Then the Rapture will take place and all those on earth will experience what its like not to have God around at all. You think evil is running rampant now? You think what happend in Conn. is a rare incident? Boy are you gonna be shocked!
Look! Up in the sky there are pyramid shaped flying machines descending to the earth. Oh no, volcanoes are erupting! Why did all the electronics just die? Where have all the bees gone. What?? Is that an extra moon?..... Why are those men green??
Yeah, right. Debunk. It's all a cover-up, I tell ya! IT'S PEOPLE!!! SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE!!!
@Catherine, wow... Please put down the bible, and crack open a spelling / vocabulary book! Your post was near indecipherable with that atrocious spelling.
Seems to me that there a lot of disappointed people out there now that the world has not come to a fiery end. Let me say something to all of you "believers" er i mean fanatics. If you were looking forward to the end of the world, you need to check yourself. Fear leads to hate and hate leads to death. If you are afraid, you are really just making an internal excuse to alienate and hate everyone else who does not have the same system of beliefs. It is why we have war. it is why we have terrorism and it is why things happen like NewTown. Its all about fear first.
You know what cures fear? Love. God is love. Jesus is love. Buddha is love. Allah is love. Whatever you believe in, you should believe in the message of Love.
And I pity those who do not, but I do not fear them.
Ask yourself this as you stand up on your self-righteous pedastal preaching Fear and Judgement and Death to whoever will listen. "Am I preaching the word of God?"
Chances are you are not. And you are committing one or more of the 7 deadly sins according to the Bible. Talk about hypcritical.
More people have died on this planet in the name of religion than all natural disasters, diseases, plane crashes, or auto accidents combined. Think about that as well.
Merry Christmas. No matter your faith, your stance or your ignorance. God still loves you all. And I do too.
Peace.
Alas, alas. The world didn't end. What am I going to do with all of the end of the world supplies I have stacked in every room of my house. I have enough toilet paper stockfiled to last twenty years now.
Oh please please PLEASE run this article every day! I can never hear enough about doomsday! Especially that is isn't tomorrow!!!
Sarcasm off. This is so stupid. I wonder if Farheed's Global Public Square will become the new standard, replacing foxnews as having readers who are less informed than people who can't even read.
I myself was a little suprized that nothing has taken place today. I wasn't a believer that the world was going to end, but I did think something strange would take place today. I also was suprized to see all the false preditions that have been made in the past about the world ending that never took place. I found this today that shows a whole bunch of them. look here
Here is the URL (didn't post it last time) go check it out its pretty crazy. http://www.foodinsurance.com/join-the-discussion/false-predictions/
where the hell were you guys a week... a year ago??? you're telling me this NOW after Australia hits Dec 21? oh... comon!!!
I will fully admit that I thought "something" might happen today, but that was just my overly active imagination at work. My cat didn't even start speaking English... darn it all! There is still a lot of pain and sorrow and death out there, but no more than usual. Thoughts and prayers to those in need.
I am Jebus Christ and I have returned! Bow down to me, the almighty Jebus Christ!
You're like 16 hours late. What took you so long dude?
You dare question me, the almighty Jebus Christ. Repent or you will face the wrath of Jeeeeeeeebuuuuuuus!
Where is our spelling bee champ now? You are afraid to spell correctly because you know whats going to happen dont you? Good thing your blasphemous joke was not aimed at Alla! You'd have people looking for you, but being it wasnt, the one whom you did aim at is watching you and worse yet, He knows the intent of your blaspemy! There is no where you can hide!
Why would I hide? I am the Almighty Jebus Christ. My fate is not decided, I am the decider. Tech993 come to judgement before Me and bow at my feet
The BBC and Iran have already blamed the Jews.
Happy new year every body
Multiple mass shootings: check. Famine throughout Africa: check. Civil and religious wars in multiple countries: check. The usual weather events (earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes/typhoons): check. I predict these will happen on or about Dec 21, 2012, and as long as people are around.
If the world did end, what will the zionists do?
until 2012 doomsday stories began I never thought so called developed world where they cliaim to be precise in their predictions and scientific achievements could be stupid and make a mockery out of the whole thing and prove how a story teller can fool the west to this extent. thats the price they pay for shutting down their hearts for God. the day you rejected God whom you introduced to the East as if you found him put you to utter shame for your ignorance. come back to yourselves and cooperate with life. world will end for you the day you die if you have no hope in the one who is Risen. God save the fools.
It will happen suddenly and without warning ... The Earth will rid itself of the human infestation!
You have been warned!
Jack was wrong!
The world is not just going to end. Get that out of your head! You will have 7 years of tribulation and absolute horror before it ends. What you will not see coming is the Rapture. That will happen in the twinkling of an eye and could happen any day. No one knows the day or hour but we will know the general time period. How will we know this? Jesus told his deciples in matthew 24:3-14. It says,
Signs of the End of the Age
3 As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” 4 And Jesus answered them, “See that no one leads you astray. 5 For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are but the beginning of the birth pains.
9 “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name's sake. 10 And then many will fall away[a] and betray one another and hate one another. 11 And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. 12 And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But the one who endures to the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

You Don't all die because you humans have way more to offer to the universe. SO DEAL WITH IT!
Wow what is it with people. If the world does not end there is an excuse and another date is set. It must be nice to keep saying things that cant be disproven cause it is some undetermined time in the future. Just wait youll see. How dense are the people that write this dribble. why in the world are you so easily led into the belief that you are so special that something special is going to happen in your lifetime? Ive heard and seen this dribble for many decades now and if you would look at history it has been a mentality that has gone on for much more than my lifetime. as for the people that tought happiness you can suck it. I was desperate to find work and put a while back money into a couple online companies that never did anything but try to get more money out of me. Now i see everything i worked for deteriorating and not able to do anything about it. Begged people for work even if its around town and nothing. I see the lying people with the signs on the street doing better than me. Its almost at the
...point where i want to ask one of the so called homeless people for some change. I almost feel at my wits end and having people make a mockery like smile today and feel better and tomorrow things will be better would sing a different tune if they were in my shoes for a while. why cant people actually help people. All ive wanted to do was find work if not physical then on the net but instead i get taken for money and receive spam. I can type, Spell decently and love to help people. But you think people will put back up what they typed here about helping others. I think it will be proven one way or another when i dont receive one message or email for suggestions or work!
Dec 21 2012 is the end of the long count Mayan calander....not end if the world!

Rahul no end of world. Just end of a calendar period or called a new cycle also callled new era. You will still have bills due on monday. Two things you can count on are taxes and death.
It is amazing to me how many people fall for this end-of-the-world nonsense. These pseudo-scientific "theories" have no more foundation or credibility than the Jesus-is-coming hoaxes that pop up every couple of years. The movie was fun, but really, people, get a grip.
I agree with Robert. Actually, the world has 'ended' about 7 times this century...its not even funny.
My book, BOOK OF SIG explains it all.
Who ever said a pole reversal would be instantanious. It is taking about a hundred years,Norway will be the next North Pole. Read my book available on Kindle and Amazon. I wrote this book, formally called THE DIVINE PLAN, 33 years ago, when I was contacted by Godhead, and instructed to inform Earth what we are going through. Good luck. Be prepared.
Interesting. What I care about is this: I am a type 1 diabetic. My feet were going to be amputated. until I found a simple way to stop that from happening. if you are a diabetic you need to read saveyourfeetDOTwordpressDOTcom
Note to CNN production staff: Sounds effects bed in this series is too loud to be able to easily understand what scientists are saying. Tks.
HE HAS LOST FOCUS. THAT'S MY TAKE ON THIS THANK YOU.
hey there and thank you for your info – I have definitely picekd up anything new from right here. I did however expertise some technical points using this web site, since I experienced to reload the website lots of times previous to I could get it to load correctly. I had been wondering if your web host is OK? Not that I am complaining, but slow loading instances times will very frequently affect your placement in google and can damage your high quality score if ads and marketing with Adwords. Well I’m adding this RSS to my email and can look out for a lot more of your respective intriguing content. Make sure you update this again very soon..
Would it be at all possible that the Mayans refered to the World as what they saw around them ONLY and not the whole planet? Surely doomsday has passed for their civilization. Also with the power of finance and economy we may not need a violent physical phenomenon to destroy our civilization!
Even if some of those things don't happen I have a great website with some more input. It is worth taking a look at!
