No, it does not matter. But if you like believing in "official" stuff, please carry on.

I've NO problem with that.  

Right now, keep an eye on the volcano eruption in Iceland.

If this eruption carries on for a long time, Europe will be paralyzed, and that will lead to further economic trouble, and that is putting it mildly. Airlines are losing $200 million a day.

what believing in official stuff, anyone with even a little knowledge of space history know that Von Braun is a nazi, and how could you have know what nasa have and have not cover up from the public?

so what a volcano erupted the airline lose money will doomday come when some european economy go bankrupt??

Just ask yourself one main question...
If you're part of the party that discover the Dooms Day is real, would you broadcast to the whole world???
The answer is NO because this will trigger panic and chaos to all humans regardless of country, race, religion, red party, & etc...

But this worries me as major earthquake is happening very frequent... each month have at least 1 major Earthquake...and now Volcanoes....
Is Dooms Day real??? One thing for sure, it's worrying base on the current natural disaster facts...  

I dont want to believe it but inside myself I fear it happening because there are still many goals in life that i havent achieve.

From the question you guys posted, watching the 2012 documentary will answer all of them. Its not just 1 prediction that says 2012 but a few predictions from different sources LIKE NOSTRADAMUS

Count my bet in.

I'm just getting my popcorn ready, and hoping Msia is so small and insignificant that most disasters will still miss Msia and be somewhere else. 

For all you know, doomsday will be man made. IMO, the surest way to doomsday is war between Israel/US/UK vs Iran and her allies. If Russia and China get involved and nukes are used, then no need to discuss what will happen next. It is WW3.

Israel does not want any country in the region to have nuclear weapons. Iran wants nuclear weapons. This is the issue - The right to have nuclear weapons. Some countries think only they have the right to have nuclear weapons, others cannot have it...

US has been saying many times that the nuke card is on the table when it concerns Iran. Iran has warned many times of massive retaliation should it be attacked. God only knows what will happen.....

Even Malaysia has chosen sides already. http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=...7993&sec=nation

Although other reports said Najib later denied this, but his recent spotlight in the US shows where Malaysia stands. So far there has been no war yet, because many leaders in the US refuse to attack Iran. Israel is the main one pushing for war.

What are the chances of this war happening anytime between now and 2012 or even later? So don't be too sure that the Mayans ran out of space on their calendar...maybe it will us blowing ourselves up in the end. 

The Mayans

The Mayans are probably the most-quoted of the 2012 doom prophecies, and can perhaps be credited with getting the whole fad started.

Back when they were an advanced civilization living in Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula about 3,000 years ago, they developed around 15 to 20 calendars, all with a slightly different purpose: the Tzolk'in was used to calculate crop cultivation, the Haab followed the cycles of the sun and the Long Count ticked off the harrowing last days until face-bursting ultimate destruction.


It's all fairly self-explanatory.

The Long Count calculates a period of time known as the Great Cycle, which is a count of about 5,125.36 years. Scholars paired up the dates of the Long Count with Gregorian calendars and found that the current Great Cycle began August 13, 3114 B.C, and ends on December 21st, 2012. Dum dum DUUUUUMMM!!!

Bolstering their theory is that the date coincides with a winter solstice during which the Sun will align with the center of the Milky Way galaxy. When that happens, some say the Earth's poles will shift and every horrible natural disaster imaginable will come together to form a Megazord of planet crushing assbeat.

What Predictions (Supposedly) Came True?

Uh... It's a calendar. It accurately predicts the rise of the sun every day. Otherwise nothing.

Why it Might be Bullshit:

First of all, the end of the Long Count holds no more significance than d*** Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve: the Maya just had a celebration and then started a new calendar. Even they didn't think it was going to be the end of the world, and even if they had, why the f*** would they be expected to know?

As for the winter solstice thing, that's just when the Sun is at its greatest distance from Earth. Our poles shifting because the Sun is aligned with the center of the Milky Way makes about as much scientific sense as saying you shouldn't drive at sunset because your car might crash into the sun.

Besides, the solstice occurs in June in the southern hemisphere, so if the world looks like it's going to end we can all just move to Australia.

The I-Ching

A less popular but equally convoluted source is the I-Ching. In the pre-800-number era of human existence, the people of China received their psychic advice from one of their oldest texts, the I-Ching. You asked the I-Ching a question and a certified physic flipped three coins in to the air, drawing a hexagram based on the results. This told your fortune, somehow.

The I-Ching had nothing to do with the end of the world until a man by the name of Terence McKenna came along and made a pattern out of every possible result. After applying this pattern to a line graph accompanied by a timeline of recorded history, he discovered that the high and low points of the graph coincided with several significant events.

On December 21, 2012, the line slowly dips off of the chart, once again supposedly indicating a world-ending catastrophic buttf***.

What Predictions (Supposedly) Came True?

The Fall of the Roman Empire
The Discovery of the New World
World Wars I and II

Why it Might be Bullshit:

The reality is McKenna utilized a pattern of his own invention to create a timeline of his own invention, and then predicted world events that had already happened.

After all, there's enough bad shit in human history that you could probably correlate several large scale catastrophes right alongside the peaks and valleys of a line graph showing Disney's stock price over the last decade.

He couldn't even decide what the end of his timeline signified, claiming everything from the apocalypse to alien invasion to time travel. Honestly, what kind of half-assed prophet was this guy? Maybe the next Batman movie comes out in 2012 and it's a huge disappointment, and the I-Ching just takes it way harder than everybody else.

Web-Bot

In the late 90s, some brainiacs created a computer program called Web-bot to make stock market predictions, perhaps out of a belief that large amounts of money would be the only way any of them would ever get laid. Web-bot works like an Internet search engine does, but it presents its results in the form of numerical trends.

Basically, it was designed to tap in to our collective unconscious by analyzing information on the Internet and then make predictions based on its findings. So it's kind of like Trending Topics on Twitter, only people inexplicably trusted it to provide meaningful financial advice.

In 2001, the aforementioned brainiacs reasoned that if their program could be used to predict the stock market, it should be able to predict the future as well. According to the Web-bot, small nuclear wars will erupt somewhere in the world in 2009, initiating a series of events resulting in a major cataclysm sometime in--wait for it--the year 2012.

What Predictions (Supposedly) Came True?

9/11
Space Shuttle Columbia tragedy
New York blackout of 2003
Anthrax scares at the U.S. House of Representatives
Hurricane Katrina

Why it Might be Bullshit:

The Web-bot's data pool is limited to what is being discussed on the Internet. If the National Hurricane Center predicts that an upcoming hurricane season will be a particularly bad one, and everyone online starts talking about it, the Web-bot will spring into action by helpfully predicting the upcoming hurricane season will be a particularly bad one.

So why is the Web-bot predicting a cataclysmic event in 2012? Because end of the world alarmists are flooding the Internet with tons of information alleging some apocalyptic occurrence in 2012, that's why. Seriously, it's the Carlos Mencia of clairvoyant robots.

The Hopi Indians

The Hopi are one of America's oldest Indian tribes, found in the northeastern section of Arizona along with absolutely nothing else. They have a rich mythology filled with Spider Women, Skeleton Men and the repeated creation and destruction of the Earth. They are a bleak people.

The Hopi believe time to be cyclical and made up of a number of worlds. When a world begins it is innocent and pure, but as time goes by the world and its people become corrupted by sex, war and other things we pay 10 dollars a ticket to see at AMC.

At the height of decay the world ends, its people are purified, and everything starts over from the beginning. We'd like to imagine it as the end of Matrix Revolutions, except that we swore on our father's grave we would never think about that movie ever again.


f*** you, Matrix Revolutions. f*** you forever.

According to the Hopi lore, we are currently living in the fourth world. Sadly, due to the white man and his insatiable white quest for spiritless technology, we are rapidly approaching the Great Purification. Once we all pass through a cosmic Brita filter we will enter world five, which as fate would have it is the one with all the goddamn hammer brothers.

And people figure, hey, might as well be 2012, right? After all, these prophets can't all be wrong.

What Predictions (Supposedly) Came True?

There are nine signs that lead to the Great Purification.

Dastardly white men with guns.
"The coming of spinning wheels filled with voices" - early American pioneers in wagons, or bass-thumping Escalades with spinning rims.
The coming of the white man's cattle - Longhorns.
"The land will be crossed by snakes of iron" - Railroads.
The world will be crisscrossed by a giant spider's web - telephone lines or the Internet.
The building of a large network of roads.
"...The sea turning black, and many living things dying..." - Oil spills.
"...Many youth, who wear their hair long like my people, come and join the tribal nations..." - hippies.
A "dwelling-place in the heavens... that shall fall with a great crash" - U.S. Space Station Skylab, which fell to Earth in 1979.

Why it Might be Bullshit

The signs of the Hopi apocalypse read like a middle school American History text book with a particular emphasis on the ill-deeds of the white man. Consequently, they seem little more than elements of a curse or an elaborate revenge fantasy.


"Then the white people are all like, 'Don't kill us!' and we're all like, 'No! HAHAHAHA!'"

Still, predicting things like the "snakes of iron" that would crisscross the land? We have to admit it's pretty impressive that they predicted things like the railroads in... oh, wait, they didn't publish the prophecy until 1959.

Mother Shipton

Ursula Sontheil, later known as Mother Shipton, was born in a cave in North Yorkshire, England in 1488. She is historically described as being the visual approximation of a foot grafted to an ass. Upon discovering her father was Satan himself, her mother fled to a nunnery and gave Ursula up for adoption (by tossing her from a speeding carriage, which was the 15th century equivalent).

Due to her fanciful lineage, she was bestowed the power to see the future. It wasn't until 1641--80 years after her death--that an anonymously written pamphlet was published detailing some of her prophecies.

As the centuries passed, newly discovered Shipton prophecies were released to the world, one of which reads, "When pictures seem alive with movements free, when boats like fishes swim beneath the sea, when men like birds shall scour the sky, then half the world, deep drenched in blood shall die."

Wait, only half? What are we even worried about?

What Predictions (Supposedly) Came True?

The death of Henry VIII
The Great Fire of London
The Printing Press
The Defeat of the Spanish Armada
World Wars I and II

Why it Might Be Bullshit:

Hey, have you noticed that she didn't specifically mention 2012? Yet, she comes up in all of the 2012 articles. Ask them why they assume 2012 for her particular prophecy, and they say it only makes sense because that's what all the other prophecies say. Then in the next breath they boast about how all the prophecies "agree." You can see how it works.

As for Mother Shipton, her story seems pretty solid, other than the fact that she may not have ever existed at all. Her biographer, Richard Head (no, seriously), later admitted that he had collected some stories he knew and created a fictional narrative he sold as The Life and Times of Mother Shipton.

As for her predictions, they can be credited to the oldest and most reliable method mankind has ever discovered: they were all written after the events in question had already taken place, and then passed on to the public as "newly discovered" prophecies.

Are you seeing a pattern here?

Nostradamus

Ah, Nostradamus. No one else in history has caused more people to stockpile Spam in their bomb shelters. Hell, might as well get him in on the act.

In 1982, the world gained a whole new reason to fear Nostradamus when a never-before-published work of his was discovered in Rome. A repeated image in the book is that of an eight-spoked wheel, which allegedly represents the intersection of the Divine Cross (made up of the angles of our galactic center and the celestial equator) and the Terrestrial Cross (the angles that make up our equinox and solstice). The two crosses only come into alignment once every 13,000 years, and we're due for alignment in, you guessed it, 2012.

Nostradamus' Armageddon for Dummies also has an image that shows three solar eclipses followed by a lunar eclipse, indicating that sometime between 1992 and 2012 our world will end. The likely cataclysm is a great flood, because at one point there is a picture of a giant pair of stripper's underwear that scholars allege is a raft.


Without question, this is a picture of a raft.

What Predictions (Supposedly) Came True?

The Reign of Napoleon
The Rise of Hitler
The Atom Bomb
The Kennedy Assassination

Why it Might be Bullshit:

Let us, for a second, ignore the fact that the book contains three different handwriting styles, that it is a copy of an original so damaged most of it could not be deciphered, and that (again) every predicted event occurred well before the book's "discovery" in 1982.

We are still faced with bullshit by the whole "three solar eclipses,one lunar eclipse" thing. There are dozens of lunar and solar eclipses taking place during the 20 year period of 1992 and 2012, not just four as the theory implies. There was a period between 2007 and 2008 that met the three and one criteria, but that just begs the question "Why the f*** didn't the world explode, evil picture book?" Don't ask. It doesn't know.

If all of these predictions are bogus (which they most certainly are), how do they manage to have 2012 in common? The History Channel, that's how. In late 2007, the History Channel ran a special about Nostradamus' lost book, stretching interpretations so thin you could make a doomsday crepe out of it. As with all of the above "prophecies," 2012 sites around the Internet took the ball and ran with it.

Pretty annoying, right? Well, get used to it. You've got two and a half more years.

hahaha... watch movie is for pop-corn munching only...
Btw, I'm sure you know that Professor Kichio Kaku state that the Solar Flare going to hit earth in year 2011/2012.
http://www.theusreport.com/the-us-report/d...-a-tv-show.html

As for the earthquake & volcano activity, I'll leave the news facts to do the talking...  

Science has only to do with something measurable in 3D sense. Anything beyond this, science cannot measure.....

That does not mean "todays science" is the only thing to base our belief system on.

There are other "buried" types of science which many today do not know about.

Nikola Tesla's scientific theories were 100% workable and demonstrable, but the world sees nothing of them today. The guy was a genius.

true
but if what they want are just basic needs to sustain life ( oxygen,water,food and shelter ) , then we might have a big trouble 

I believe that I will reach the end of my life before the world reaches the end of it's life lol

Oh really? Source? Or you wanna play along enlighten a bit longer just because you "think" you've read something we don't already know from some secret conspiracy site(s)?

As for me? I dunno...I'll tell you that but there a fukken bucket load of theories out there with no solid evidence. Just some bored fukken nerd with time in their hands quoting some bored fukken nerd that has written a thick book out of having fukken load of time in their hand researching up the anals of history.

nah, i don't believe in all those stuff, our planet might be dying but i don't think it's going to be so soon! those sci-fi movies are just made up.

even IF it's true, i think we should all just enjoy these couple years instead of worrying so much lol

Google John Titor, you will know 2012 'might' no be happening.

He is a time traveller from 2036

As per scientists, the earth and sun will align straight to the centre of the milky way on 21.12.12.

This cycle only happen about once every 20,000 years.
They are still studying the side effects on this..

Aliens gonna visit earth in year 2012... and it's the new beginning chapter for mankind

Maybe US (travel agent) going to announce to the world that alien was at Area 51 after all this while
The itinerary on 21 Dec 2012 is still in progress

Seriously, I do agree with Stephen Hawking that it's kinda risky to reach out to Alien... an analogy is to what European had colonize the US land

ok, something interested to share with you guys.

I was chatting to a friend the other day and he told me about this collegue of his that is a believer. This guy is really a moron (in my own opinion).

He often do charity work by buying live animals from market and then releasing them out to the open. In chinese term, it's called "let live". But the ironic thing is, he continue to eat meat. He says those who slaughter the animal is the one who get lots of bad karma. Those who eat, not so bad. He also believe in 2012 saying it is not really end of the world but rather something drastic will happen. And he believe, his past life, he was an alien. I LOLed my ass off....

I was like...how can an educated person (he is an engineer), have this kind of mentality?

at first, why human being created here (earth) not saturn? not pluto? (dont tell me because earth got oxygen)

second, who created human being?

third, the purpose of human being created? i dont think we birth for work, study, screw girls, screw by boss, buy house, buy car, go clubbing etc..
it must be some purpose that's y we here to achieve

forth, is that in universe that's only human being?

i believe after we know all this secret, then we will know whether got doomsday o not.. it actually related..

So what does the article say specifically about how life developed on earth ?

(I'm just asking because I really dislike people posting massive links without having have read it themselves etc)

but if u watch the video, the experts are mostly mathematicians. And the odds of all the text appearing in the same page are very very very rare with many words regarding the events appearing closely to each other. And the method is not just simply looking for a word. They are all equi distance letter.

Regarding predicting the future, its true that cannot predict because we never know what will happen in the future until it comes close but it does record event that actually happens after it happens. So its kind of having the future written but then again we cannot access it because we dont know the future. I suggest u listen to their reasoning first then you will understand. Even one of the experts who first saying its bullshit start believing it after trying to proof it false

Here if interested can watch the other parts.
