The 2012 Predictions: You're Betting Your Life On It

I have been reading more and more articles about 2012 and the Mayan calendar. It's interesting how things that I have read in the past few years such as "How to know God" by Deepak Chopra and "The Celestine Prophecies" are now making more sense to me. There seems to be a link, in addition to a very reassuring message rather than one of doom and gloom. These do not have to be a difficult times if one is prepared to move to a higher vibrational frequency. Thank you for your enlightening article.

I believe there is a universal consciousness that is slowly awakening in the minds of everyone, at different rates depending on the person's will to let go of conventional and acculturated knowledge in favor of a new philosophy, whatever it may be that works for them. The important thing is that a universal spiritual awakening is happening in the first place. I believe 2012 is somehow connected with a "mass awakening" of humanity;some form of alignment between humanity's religious, philosophical, and spiritual boundaries. I feel that whatever events take place on 2012, all people will understand more about our role in the flow of time, and the importance of our destinies as spiritual creations of a higher power. To sum it up, I think something or another is going to give us all a nice reality check and we're going to drop all the petty games and heed the call to a higher purpose. Maybe we will discover some hidden truth that will set us free...

Oh, my. I love you. Frank

The 2012 prediction read was awesome. I, too, feel something inevitable soon will happen. We are here, now, to remember that we are all in this together, as one being.

I am a 72 year old Grandmother and I only wish that I could have realized earlier in my life how important it is to help each other more. May the Light of the Love of God surround you always and fill your heart.

I too sense something profound is upon us. Soon we will have answers if we are ready to receive the truth. Death becomes us all at some point. So why all the scare all the sudden. Is it the not knowing what or knowing what to expect that scares us most? A spiritual awakening in the world would be a great gift to all of us. I guess only time holds the truth and ones self can worry about 2012; or just be ready whenever death may become us weather it is today, tomorrow, 2012, or etc. It's really a personal truth to oneself to be aware that ones life is not promised by a date but by ones belief. Good luck to everyone on their own life journeys. Myanrain

I have recently become interested in the prophecies about the year 2012. The real problem I have found is there is no real consistency about the predictions. Will there be meteor showers, will the poles shift, and will there be earth quakes? What exactly causes all these events? Is it because the Earth is in the center of the Universe? If so, the universe is ever expanding, so where is the center. I know for sure that we are entering the last chapter in mans dictatorship of this Earth. I would like to know if this date 2012 is the middle of the tribulation period or the very beginning. The Bible is fairly clear in the fact that in the middle of the tribulation period there will be untold misery. A few examples are meteor showers, two thirds of the waters turning blood red and tasting like worm wood,and insects like locusts tormenting men. Any additional information would be appreciated.

I'm a 14 year old boy, but the Mayan Calendar stated that on 9/11/2001 two birds would destroy a city, but they didn't destroy a city. They destroyed the hearts of a city. So, maybe this all isn't true. They could be wrong right? If the world was to end maybe it won’t be destroyed, just the things we held dear. They were wrong once. Can’t they be wrong again? I have been looking into this "end of the world" thing for two years now, and I want a straight answer for all this. Is it going to end or not? All of these websites don't give a straight answer. They beat around the bush. So I want an answer. No lies.

Dear 14 year old. I have been studying religious experiences and human interaction for many years. Back in the late 1960's, I was interested in the news of the day and the predictions and forecasts of worldly events, much as todays predictions of the end of times and plagues. Most have never come true, but some have in as much as we can associate past events with non-concrete antidotes. Whether we believe that the catastrophic events are going to happen or not, I feel that there is little that we as individuals can do about it. Consider yourself as a passenger in a plane that is presumably about to crash, is there anything you can do other than, of course, try to get to the controls and land the plane safely. But here we are talking metaphorically. I believe and hope that some event in 2012 will come to pass. I feel the we, as human kind have been on a downhill slide for many centuries. We have lost much of what it means to be righteous beings, humble, and fearful of God. Look at the Amish for example. Now, I personally couldn't switch my modern convenience lifestyle for their more simple one. I have visited several Mennonite communities, but you must have respect for their convictions and dedication to their religion and lifestyle. If some major catastrophe does occur, then it will likely be people like the Amish that will "inherit" the earth, for they will be among the few that are capable of existing for long periods of time on meager necessities. Just some food for thought. It is actually refreshing to know that someone from a younger generation is actually thinking about something other that what Britany is doing. The latest rap songs and other trash that is chipping away at the very foundation of our society.

Namaste, my goodness, well done. You have put this so succinctly. I have read so many conflicting stuff on 2012. You captured the gist so well that there is really nothing else to add. I personally believe it is a wake up a call to live in loving harmony or perish with ignorance. I choose the first. It is really refreshing to read from the young man too. He has been researching it for two years that's deep, he is definitely going places. I cannot wait for the change to take place, because the earth needs to be purged of so much evil. Love, light and peace.

I do believe this is very important stuff, I have a wife a three year old daughter and a baby on the way. How can we prepare ourselves for these changes? I don't want my family to be caught up in the wrong lane, I've always wondered how we would get by if society broke, not just the struggle to find food but the affect it would have on peoples personalities and how people can turn quite evil when pushed to these limits. Should we just be satisfied with living life for the here and now and accept the fact that many or if not all of us are just waiting for infinite doom? How can we learn to move to a higher vibrational frequency as Katrina Abbot spoke of.

Hi Col. Katrina mentioned the following in her post, "How to know God" by Deepak Chopra and "The Celestine Prophecies" are now making more sense to me." Reading these may be a good place to start. Also the writer of the Article is Jean-Claude Koven who also wrote, "Going Deeper:How to Make Sense of Your Life When Your Life Makes No Sense.

Hello enlightened people, I believe that the end of the world is coming for sure, but I don't really care when exactly this end will be. What it is important to me is to keep my faith, and to be always sure that each day I am doing my best for myself, for people whom I love, to all man kind and to the earth. To consider each day as your last chance to do your best and to be able to sleep each night being ready to go and not to wake up the next morning. Only this way you can be truly free and you can be a survivor wherever you are now and wherever you might be next. Bless you all.

Excuse me but why do older people always assume that young people only care about Brittany spears and the latest rap song, I care about them well not so much Brittany, but this 2012 is really bothering me. Like the 14 year old boy who said he has been researching and has yet to find an answer. Let me remind all of you that the world was supposed to end in 2000 but did it? No every one on here seems to be a devout Christian but they don't know that the Bible says that no one will know when the world ends?

I recently heard of the 13 sculls and the end in 2012. The earth changes. Throughout time it shifted continents from earth quakes, volcanoes, etc. It has been happening since before the dinosaurs. It has nothing to do with God's wrath. God is love and light from which we all came. He has no revenge on humanity. It is an experience for all of us. What ever happens in 2012 will be a positive thing for humanity. Remember how we all came together on 9/11. It will happen again on this event. It will be a spiritual awakening. Religion won't be what is most important. It will be the belief in a greater power a higher vibration. The ability to see life in everything. To see the light in everything. To remind us that we are loved and we can love everything in front of us. See everything with new eyes. Without fear or hate but instead positive thinking, and energy. It will be fine if the world is not coming to an end but to a beginning.

Change is inevitable. The only thing which does not change, is the fact that everything changes. Surely the Earth cannot go on much longer with humans raping it the way they are. So, either there will be severe Earth changes or a shift in consciousness. In the end, it doesn't matter. Who you really are cannot "die", but rather transform. Once this is really seen, there is no fear of death. The fear of death transformation comes from the same "mind" which is systematically destroying that which it needs for continued life on Earth. My readings indicate that the Mayans speak of 2012 as the end of the world "as we know it". What this feels like is a dramatic shift in consciousness as the old ego-based ways of looking at life fall away and are transformed into living in love and Truth. Some years ago I felt compelled to move to a relatively peaceful country far from cities. I feel that we may be challenged in many ways in the next 4 years. As the writer indicates in this wonderful article, there is something of a choice involved. If you prefer to move through the transition of the ages rather than to undergo physical death, then NOW is the time to switch lanes. Once you switch, don't even so much as look into the other lane, you could be pulled back before you are aware of it. These are exciting times as Awareness remembers Itself in billions of seemingly separate bodies. The truth is, that you never were separate. It's part of the Illusion which is about to drop away.

I to have been researching and have come to the conclusion that everything in the universe goes through cycles. Maybe the Maya and the other ancient cultures had discovered this cycle. And left clues so we to could learn of it. The scary thing is, we don't know exactly what this is a cycle of. A natural progression of changes like the seasons, from spring, to summer, to fall, to winter? I tend to think not. It seems to be more of a cycle of destruction. There is a lot of scars on the earth of past destruction. I believe it is a warning of the next impending disaster. The Maya were astronomers, they were obsessed with the stars and planets. So to were many of the other ancient cultures. It isn't by chance that 12/21/12 is the date of a major astronomical event. I believe that whatever happens it will be caused from something in the universe, not something on earth. And the results will be devastating to life on earth. It will be a very hard time for everyone here. I don't want to bring anyone down, but you can not change the cycles of the universe by "thinking good thoughts" Whatever is going to happen will happen regardless of how positive we are. I believe in one thing, the golden rule. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. That solves all of humanities problems in one shot. Don't get me wrong all of this enlightenment and kindness is a great thing, something long overdue in our society. However, I think the cycle is a cycle of a planetary body, comet, dwarf star, or maybe the planetary alignment itself. And all the kindness in the world isn't going to change that. It will however make this a little nice place to live up until then, so please continue on. This world needs more people like all of you.

Hi, I just wanted to say that most of the people seem to concentrate on the issue from a mythological point of view. However much of it is based on easily explained scientific fact. A bit of research on History Channel specials and other videos on youtube clears up the mystery of 2012. Our solar system moves around a giant black hole situated at the center of our galaxy, in the direction of Pleides. It takes 24000 years for each cycle of revolution. However the ellipse of this revolution of this solar revolution does not match the magnetic field of this galactic plane, so obviously the sun moves to and fro on either side of this magnetic plane twice during each revolution. On 21st December, 2012 we are going to cross this galactic plane, after I suppose 12,000 years, some say 13,000. Another amazing fact is that the Sun, the Earth and the center of our galaxy is going to exactly align in a single line during the passage. The Mayas obviously knew about this astronomical fact. So, it means that the earth is going to pass through a tremendous magnetic force. Now we have no idea or experience, nor any credible record of such an event. Practically speaking we may expect some tsunamis, earthquakes, disruption of satellite transmissions and networks, power blackouts, and in the worst case a pole shift. Which means that the poles may move from their present position causing drastic changes in weather patterns. Now spiritually, since our brains and nervous system run on electricity and are very susceptible to magnetic fields, some of us might have spiritual experiences like visions? And maybe a better idea about the reason for our existence. So let us not panic, but face the event with love and prayer. Thank you and best regards.

I refer to the paragraph about freedom of choice, you suggested that there are three paths that one could take, one of selfishness and the other of love. I am a bit confused about the middle lane and I was wondering if you decided to take the middle lane then what are you doing? What is not looking after yourself or others? I would be really grateful if someone could clarify this for me. Thank you.

I have been researching myself on this topic, and I am fascinated with the whole thing. I do think that something profound and awesome is happening to humanity. We are starting to wake up, and it is a different feeling for everyone. I myself am having more and more feelings such as a change in my energy vibration, some days I can't explain it but I know something is changing. We are all awesome beings and what ever your religion or background we are all part of one whole including earth our mother. I believe that by changing our thought patterns from negative to positive loving thoughts about everything and everyone will make a huge difference in this time of mass confusion. We do hold all the powers within ourselves, and that we are the ultimate creater what ever that may be. I am excited to find out what will happen as well, and alittle scared. But it will be one to remember for an eternity. So welcome to our journey of a lifetime.

Debasish got it right. December 21, 2012 is not only about mythology, but science as well, specifically astronomy. Alignment of the Sun, the Earth and the center of our galaxy will enormously affect our bodies and spirits. So, I repeat after Debasish, do not panic but get ready and pray. According to the prophecy of Three Days of Darkness, pray in the presence of lighted blessed candle and have enough water for three days and do not look outside. After that time Earth axis will return to its original straight position and there will be a constant spring-like weather in the regions between the Equator of the Poles.

I intend to go outside and enjoy the day. I might have my favorite meal and rejoice in the fact that my choice is to be more optimistic. I feel sure the end of the world will not come on that day as I do not live by fear. I have faith that this is just another day that men have picked to mess with our minds. I have better things to do than worry about this date. If the end does come, well so what. Death is a natural part of life and I have my beliefs close to my heart.

Frankly what a load of croc. It seems people have become obsessed with the end of the world. I can understand youngsters because they have not been living long enough in this world to know better, but people aged 50 and over today, to believe in this is really something awesome. For a start, the world, as we know it, will definitely end one day and I don't have to be Einstein or a scientist to know that because what goes up has to come down and vice-versa, it is a law of life. Secondly, since our great great etc. descendants have been predicting the end of the world, the most recent being that the world would end in the year 2000 (at the break of the millennium), what happened there? Oh no, we have made a mistake now we are passing it onto the year 2012 because of the Mayan calendar, how much stupidity can there exist among people? It is frankly a sick need to instill collective fear among different populations and if you like many human beings in the world, aged 50 plus, who grew up believing the world would end because of nuclear power, balls of fire and all that crap, well all I can say is that we lived in fear and as a result that was always a spade hanging over our heads. After all, if in fact, according to the Mayan Calendar and Nostradamus and God only knows how many others predicted what they felt the need to predict. Tell me what we are going to do about it? So, either someone invents a shuttle to Mars to avoid our extinction as a human race or becomes God to avoid all this disaster what frankly is the point of instilling collective fear and doubt and God knows what other feelings in the population, under the so called very beneficial aura of preparing mankind for the spiritual changes to come, that would equate with what the Catholic Church and other religions have attempted to do for the past 2000 years, with no success (read instill fear), so please, if the world is coming to an end in the year 2012, as all these very illustrious scientists have predicted, at least have the decency to leave mankind alone to rise up to his own spirituality if he has it or otherwise, after all, if you believe in reincarnation, we will return at some other stage to correct our mistakes anyway. Either way, if your read the Bible or interpret it in any way, it says only a certain number will be saved to continue with mankind, we don't really know if the Bible referred to our civilization or to previous ones that existed on this earth for crying out loud. Those who will be saved will be saved and those who will not will not. Neither do we know if the Bible was written with reference to human terms and periods or if it was written in relation to spiritual terms. So like Brady, the famous seismologist once predicted a terrible earthquake in Peru and everyone living in said country who had a little bit of money fled to the USA to avoid this terrible natural disaster, in the end it was another load of croc., and all those who traveled, in the end had to go through another earthquake anyway, because obviously, now we know better, no one can predict an earthquake within an anticipation of more than 15 minutes let alone a year, for crying out loud, has mankind gone stupid?

I see no evidence of a pole shift on 2012.I know something terrible happened to the planet about 13000 years ago. There's no proof that 13000 year cycles exist and we are ready for destruction on 2012.

Very interesting to view all of the feedback. Thank you for this clear and well written article. It is true that our world did not end in the year 2000, but you will notice that the world began the millennium in a heightened state of fear and by 2001 mass consciousness created 9/11; where the resulting majority shifted to a state of waking to their sole meaning of life. Something did begin to end in the year 2000 and what is now left of it is roaring around the planet like a monster fighting to exist that being fear or the ego self, false self or lies. If you really look at fear, everything negative stems from it. And you can also see truth being revealed all over the planet. So simple, yet profound, that fear and untruth is leaving the plant and all that remains is love and truth. We will then be a planet operating in pure love if the universal truth is that it is all about love. To add to the analogy in this insightful article we have a choice. However it must be clear or you end up in the middle. So imagine driving your car, where to the left is a big accident and to the right is safety. In this case safety is the obvious choice and there is no middle. Although choosing the right lane and the path to safety, you may be so focused on the accident in the left lane that you steer your car right into it. Where you focus is where you steer your care in reality. So that's why the middle is the worst case scenario because it equates to an unclear intention of where you want to be, thus creating chaos. Some of you have asked 'what if I just let go and ride through this?' That is choosing faith. There is a saying by Dr. Wayne Dyer, "Let go and let God or Universe, etc". In this phrase he is speaking to surrendering control and allowing what is to be just that, what it is and having faith that it will all work out in the highest good of all. In what we call surrender, ego cannot exist. We have all chosen to be here at this time for a reason, trust this and allow it to unfold. Know that nothing in God or Universe or Buddha or Pure Energy or Higher Self, whatever it means for you, is of ego thus whatever is shifting on the planet is in our highest good. It is only the ego that makes it bad. Choosing wisely and living consciously in and from pure love, and removing ego as an option is the only place I have ever found peace. I hope you all choose love. Wouldn't that be fun, and isn't that why we are really here, to play?

Actually, the year is what is important, not the date. In 2012, the earth's wobble will switch from one side to the other. It happens ever 126,000 years and guess when it is scheduled to happen? I am no scientist, but read Graham Hancock's Fingerprints of the Gods, it gives the most plausible reason for the 2012 prediction.

Life is an adventure, a quest for truth and love, going back to our ancient ancestors and continuing to this day. The mystery of where we came from is gradually being solved. As for the future, you know it's going to be a surprise. We will see what happens in 2012. There is a God who is beyond our comprehension. Trust your best intuition. Love God, love your neighbor as yourself, and find a way to have a positive attitude most of the time. Enjoy the adventure.

The last date chiseled in stone on the Mayan calendar, was it that they ran out of space? Perhaps they just decided to stop there since it was like so many years out? Maybe we're just making too much out of nothing. It wouldn't make sense to chisel predictions indefinitely right?

There is no evidence that the Mayan predicted their own demise. We still don't know what happened to end their culture. Why would they be able to predict the end of everything?

It's a transformation. Anything that is not of natural material will not exist. Everyone will be affected depending on their personal perspective. The main thing to do is to not be in fear. Just allow. No way to prepare. Just be content, present, forgive self and others. Begin by working on the ego, which is as aspect of fear. We who are here on earth have chosen so. We want to experience in a body. No where to hide because you can't hide from your self. Do unto others as if they are you. Because they are. Peace to you.

Because of the magnetic forces that we will encounter. Electromagnetic activity will increase. This happens before during and after an event. Not every event. For example a thunder head may produce discharge and then again it may not, based on the varied changes like a circuit board. Our alignment could be the catalyst or the spark that shorted out or recharges the galaxy or galaxies. Kind of like a coil in an engine. With out the spark the engine doesn't function. With out that spark our synapse will cease to tell our brain one or zero. The reaction from an over heating of the planet will probably liquefy many things. Send high amounts of electricity through water that releases the hydrogen boom. Volcanism that's where the acid is released sizzle and bubble. Plasma enters the earth and then it exits. I think that I have found those spots. Like a conduit we inter connect. Time to recharge.

I'm sorry if I'm disappointing anyone by saying this, and I'm not saying that I'm right either, but this "End of The World 2012" stuff is a bunch of bull. Have you ever thought that maybe the Mayans died out before finishing their calender? And if one does believe in God, then one would know that in the Bible it states that the end of the world will happen when we least expect it. If we all expect it to be in 2012, then it won't happen. It could happen in 2 seconds, for all you know. And if I'm wrong, and if the end of the world truly will be in 2012, then why does it matter? We're all going to die eventually anyways. My advice for people who are freaking out about this: calm down. yeah, some of you probably think I'm crazy for saying it's no big deal, and I probably am, but that's what I believe. We live, then we die. That's life. What difference does it make if we all die at the same time? No difference. We still live and die. So stop worrying, and continue on with your lives.

I think everyone should at least take some kind of notice of this. Make it a point to stay in touch with the news in the time leading up. There will be some sort of warning signs. Something as big as the doomsday people are talking about is bound to have some warning signs. During November and early December of 2012, there will undoubtedly be some sort of warning signs if things are going to go south. Either the killer comet will be spotted, we will begin to feel the gravitational effects of things lining up, and so forth. Something will let you know what is about to happen. Stay tuned in to the news and don't be a hermit. As a society, we will get through things. If nothing odd is going on by December 20th, then we will know that this is likely a hoax before the 21st gets here.

I have been researching information about the year 2012 and I can't help but feel confused when I compare this to my biblical knowledge. The Bible says that no one will know the day or hour. Does that mean that the year can be known? I do know that we (mankind) have an end on this Earth. It's stated very clearly in the Bible. All of the events throughout our history have proved to me that God does exist and the Bible is the truth. I can look at things on this Earth and see that God is real. Scientists have explanations but when you really dig down deep, their explanations can only go so far. It also says that these things will happen. It doesn't say that mankind can change these things and stop them from happening if they really want to. In my research, all I've been seeing is how humans can stop most of the events from happening or at least slow them down, even change how they happen. This is interesting to me because in saying this, they're also communicating that the Bible is false and that God does not exist. By predicting the exact date of these events, it's contradicting the Bible as well(stating the Bible is false, therefore God does not exist). As an individual, you don't have to be religious to know that mankind is doomed. We have seen what humans have done and it's a sad reality of who we are. Searching The Word of God shows us that our cares are towards Him and not of this world. We are here for His purpose and during the end times, none of us will know when it will happen because it will be like a thief in the night. We're told to prepare now or it will be too late. In my research, the closer that we get to this end, the more things seem to be lining up with The Bible. You know, if he doesn't exist, what are we losing by following our beliefs and if He does exist, we will be rewarded in heaven for serving him. To me, there's no question in my mind that we all should follow his word. Because in this time, we know that something is going to happen but we truly will never know when until it's here. Just take these times as a last push for us to get on the right path and know that we all need to really start thinking about salvation rather than become involved in making this planet a better place and saving mankind because it is destined for this to be impossible. I would just like to know why some of these religious people seem to be predicting things that the Bible clearly says that no one will know and trying to change these things from happening and save the Earth? I don't have a great knowledge of the Bible nor all of the predictions, but I just wanted to respond to these comments as a reminder to everyone of where the Truth is found and where we can all be comforted during these terrible times.

Hi, friends I believe that 2012 will be a difficult year, but in the same time we all are living hard period in our present time. May be it will be physical transformations on the Earth, many people will die, many lives will be destroyed, and catastrophic events will happen. I believe with all my heart that our world will not end, but it will be a time for revelation of the truth that was hidden from us for thousands of years, from the time of the Atlantis and of Lemuria. This it is the real sense of the Apocalypse or the spiritual awaking of the humanity, by knowledge of the truth changing our mentality. We all have now the possibility to read about our real history, about the real significance God and about ourselves as spirits originated from the Great Spirit Cosmic, the one God of the Universe. All the people of the Earth, our spirits and souls are all pure divine energy influenced by stars. We have the freedom of choice; we are all true brothers. By Facing the to the great changes that have already begun, I consider that by returning to the Divine Force and by following the universal laws, known from Hermes or Toth, from the Hindu and Mayan Cosmogony, etc., we may accomplish our mission given by the Divine Father, to experience as spirits incarnated in a physical body many aspects of our personality with the noble aim to rise our soul’s level of vibrations and change the bad aspects of our personality, and of our Ego. We must choose to have a life in Light. Nobody may bring the darkness in a room full of Light, Love, Compassion, and Tolerance. It only takes but one small light to illuminate a dark room. The light forces will surely win the battle with those of the darkness. It is the time to choose not the middle path but right path in light and love. If we escape from the fear and become conscious about the truth hidden by different religions, and also by those named dark forces such as the Illuminati we will find the truth. In such manner the truth will give us the freedom and so, the peace of our souls. We know about the immortality of our spirits. We know now that we must return home at our Divine Source at this end of a great Cycle. But the most important thing is the path that we choose here and now as it is said also in the Bible. The Bible should be understood by reading it with an open mind and with more wise reflections about what has been written. The Reincarnation was hidden to permit the new church to dominate the world, and to have all the power, and the wealth. From the ancient times there were some persons that knew about the real meaning of the Bible and all the mysteries about God, about human beings, and about the universal laws and evil forces. All religions hid these truths to gain power and to dominate, and to become rich leaving the rest of mankind in the dark without this knowledge. We are now awake; it is possible to learn on the net about the ancient wisdom. We all live now in the time of Revelation. It is the same for all people of the world in this time. Please read a book written by Adrian Cooper > Our Ultimate Reality. Also I find the work of Gregg Braden to be interesting and he has some videos that may help you understand what I have written about a little bit better. Peace, light, and God bless you all.

Global warming is a strong sign that we are leading that way. No need for far fetch prediction about end of world with meteorites hitting Earth and the like. We still have a few years to deal with this issue. It is wise to be prepared and one solution to climate change is going vegetarian. Once the Earth's temperature gets back to its equilibrium, other cosmic induced disasters may be avoided at the same time. Otherwise, the death of some animal species and plants as the Climate change predicted would have changed our way of life to the extreme level. Even a few temperature changes have given people health issues, let's not talk about extremes. Go green now like planting trees and go Vegetarian it might be the best solution. Plus for those who believe that we are coming to a New Age era, then we are half way there by becoming more loving and supportive of weak animals. I like the following web site > Climate Change.

Hi all you atheists and agnostics, best you all lose your tarot cards, angel cards and what ever other hocus pocus you've got your head into and find Jesus. He's there for you and He doesn't make it too difficult for you to find Him. Ask and just listen. The voice is very quiet. The end of man's self rule is not so far away, thank God. Those who actively search for the truth will find it. Peace and blessings.

I believe. Trust your intuition, it's what has allowed you to be present now.

Hey. I hope the world doesn't end in 2012, because that's the year I graduate, and that would not be right. But at some times I believe that it could happen because of all the strange things that have been happening lately, and then again I don't think so. I hope it doesn't because I want to be able to get married and have kids and live to see my kids kids. I also want to be able to pursue my lifetime career that I want to do. It's all true that someday everyone's going to die, but I just hope it doesn't be in 2012. It's said that no one but God knows the exact date, so we really can't be sitting here awaiting for the time to come, we still must live our lives and live them to the fullest and live it like there's no tomorrow. Cause you never know when you're day will come.

Through the last 45 years I've learned that there is only one source I can trust in for truth, the Bible. Anyone can check this out for themselves for the end times are written of in many places such as Matthew 24 and Mark 13. God says we will not know the time but there will be signs which have all been fulfilled. The most important place to watch is Israel for the world, as a whole, will turn against them. As of today, we are one of their few allies and who knows how long that will last. That is where the final war will be fought and will be global but God will intervene and fight for them. This is His world and He will bring it to a close by his plan. No one will make it through this time for Revelation 19 says that this world will be destroyed and a new one created. The world beyond this is the only one that matters. Admitting our sinfulness to God and believing that Jesus Christ died for me and rose again to pay God's requirement of death, and then deciding to live as best I can for Him are the simple requirements for heaven. His letter to us, The Bible tells us how. There's no worry about the end because I know who wins.

Greetings Fellow Earthlings, One thing is for certain, The article was very well written and a pleasure to read. As for 2012, Whatever will be, will be. I have dedicated the last 15 years of my life to be in service of my fellow beings. I work, but in my spare time I volunteer. I suggest all who are spending inordinate amounts of time pondering the truth or seeking the answer,to get out and do something constructive. There is a time for all seasons, a time to cry, a time to laugh, a time to pray, a time to get your hands dirty and get to work. The human condition is eroding. It's time for less talk and more action. I have belonged to different religious groups and found the same in most. Many are talking about helping others, but few are actually doing it. Volunteer Firemen, EMT's, Blood Drives, and just recognizing when you can be of service with nothing asked for in return, is what we need. I have actually saved lives, more than once. What more of a reward do we need other than to be able to say, I helped another human today. Those that need to believe in God,or a higher power to get to work,so be it. I get it you need an answer. For me, I'm OK not knowing. I can choose to do the right thing, take the right lane so to speak, for no other reason except it's right. Serve your fellow Humans regardless of how much time we have. It's the right thing.

Wow, any one still watch the history channel? Look, the Mayans, where destroyed, captured, and slaughtered by the Spanish conquistadors. So, as far as the ending of their calendar its because, according to our professors and such,the calendar recycles starts over to another cycle; I forgot what it was called though. The only legitimate research conducted by our scientists etc. is that a solar flare will occur "around" 2012 and that though they are not sure how bad it will be it will certainly affect our satellites and stuff. That's it, mother nature has always ravaged our planet. As far as "global warming" it's a natural cycle that the earth has gone through for millions of years. Cold or hot, really?. I think its sad that society is so depressed that they would wish and welcome mass catastrophes as an escape to living and dealing with life.

Great article. I guess what I get is that everyone who claims the world is going to end; but what they don't understand is that the way we know life today will cease. How do you prepare 6 million people? You can't. The weather is changing. It's colder now even in Spring. Volcanoes are erupting, swarms of earthquakes are happening. The earth is preparing itself for the change. Listen to the fifth dimesion. We are heading into the age of Aquarius. Unfortunately, the earth has to cleanse itself. Don't laugh; history has proven since, Atlantis. Lumaries' Mayan's; Axtecs, Hopi Indians all run under the same calendar, They said the end would not happen till years later, 2034 I believe; If I am incorrect; please correct me. The government just bought the Weather Channel although it resides in the Department of the Interior; to control the weather. The axis will flip; The north pole will be the south pole, which means the USA will be pushed upwards; where Canada is today. Now polar shifts the earth goes through every so many years, but when the axis does a full flip; it's destruction. Now why is Greenland under ice and Iceland is green? Think about it. Take care of you; take care of me.

Well 2012 is a fascinating story told by everyone ancient or new it doesn't matter, all we must do is to serve God if he is real or not at least if he was not real you would not have lost anything because you have lived a good life. Death comes so quickly you don't really recognized it, but it is all this 2012 worry's that is killing you all which means that you might not even see it. Everything in life has it's own beauty, in my country in South Africa, we have a different beauty from all other places. We have lots of wild animals other places has good skiing resorts ext. What I am trying to say is that if you are there to see the end of the world it would have a beauty of its own and you would be a part of something that mankind spoke a lot of. The nice thing is you will be there to experience it. Live for today, it has its own unique history. Tomorrow has it's own future. God loves us all because he is a lover of souls.

You need to read Greg Bradens Fractal Time along with Rhonda Brynes The Secret. These are the best books to explain our choices that I have read so far.

Amazing story, I believe that we should live life to the fullest because we never know when we will die. If this really does happen in the future we need to work together and put our differences aside. Love one another as God loves us even if this disaster happens or not.

I and a friend recently discussed this topic briefly. He felt that a choice for all people would be "the event" so to speak of 2012. That it would be more like a decision of great importance rather than "The ultimate end". As we watch our world powers closely, I feel we must ask ourselves what are they asking of us? What choices are they giving us in regards to our lives? Then, in turn, pray and read the bible. (That is my choice) I've heard some people think there will be, ushered in, a one world government/religion type of thing. It seems possible and good even, but is it? Anyways, I read this article with great interest. I think the element of choice will be prevalent throughout the coming years. God Bless

Hi I'm Jen and I'm fifteen years old. Here's my theory on the end of the world. If we think about it, it seems almost logical that the world could end in 2012. The Bible predicts that the end of the world will come through fire. The Mayan calender believes we will be destroyed on Dec. 21, 2012. Not to mention, the Mayans have been very good at predicting certain things that were going to happen. Just look at 9/11. But despite this, there apparently is still hope for Christians and non-beleivers. Those who are devout and love God will be saved, at least that whats the Bible says. I read something about a seven year trial time where God will give us seven years to repent and be forgiven. And in those seven years the world will be governed by the Antichrist and all who follow him. At the end of the seven year period God will burn and send to hell those who did not repent and called him the one true God. My theory is that the end of the world will begin on December 21, 2012 with the coming of the Antichrist, but it will not end until 2019. Those who are meant to be saved will be saved and those who are not on that day will have to endure a seven year tribulation of faith and belief. God created us and he can destroy us. If you think about it, it makes sense. God is our Shepard and we are his sheep, just like so in the Bible. If even one of us strays, he tries to find us, just like it says so in the Bible. That seven year period of tribulation is our chance for us to find him and for him to find us and be whole again. Those who do not try to find him and have no good in their heart turn into wolves. God must purify the Earth and obliterate the Antichrist and his followers so that his sheep won't stray or be tempted by the lures of the Devil. Who do you think the devil will or has cloaked himself as? Trust me he will be bigger than the snake in Adam's and Eve's garden. Oh and to answer Brandon's question closer to the top of this page, if you destroy the heart of the city, you destroy the city from the inside, were people can't always see.

There has been many big scary things that man kind has feared such as the year 2000 was also meant to be the end but it was not. Do you people want to live in fear for what someone said way before our time? We cant trust everything we see.

Kids, Relax. All will be well. 2012 is just the death of the old self, or ego. We have all chosen to be here for this auspicious date and we will know exactly what to do. If we were to walk the streets 2 years ago with a sandwich board foretelling what would happen the banking sector, the roman catholic church in Ireland particularly, and Wall Street, they would have locked us up. The nonsense is over. Although I have children and, therefore, long for them to live a long and happy life, I still have a smidgen of worry about all this, but something in me just knows it's going to be better when we all start living from our hearts. So relax, lads, they burnt us at the stakes and, guess what? We're back. And we've a job to do. And we'll do it. Love and light.
