Hey guys just wanted to know more about this Mayan thing and how the world is going to end in 2012? ive heard about it recently but dunno wtf theyre talking about.
Its not true if you ask me. Total and royal bullshit. The mayans were the greatest trolls ever and thats why their empire got destroyed of too much trolling. =p

"Heard of it recently"? Just fyi, this is some PREEEETTY damn old news.. And it's also a load of bullcrap.
How anyone could EVER believe in that shit is amazing, but hey, then again the human race has amazed me with its stupidity more than once before.
The Mayans made a Calendar way back bunches of years ago.
This wasn't your average Calendar. It wasn't just for that year. It went far into the future. (Well, it was far into the future in their time).
The Calendar ends on December 21st, 2012. People think this means the Mayans thought the world will end in 2012, but I say they just got bored of making Calendars.
Or as Goldrinn said. Maybe they just ran out of space?

Its a rock, they're gonna run out of room. Also, the Spanish wiped them out possibly before they could finish.
The world was also predicted to end in 2000 and I also saw a 2004 one, but guess what, we're still here...
^Thank you for that image
Please watch the episode of Penn and Teller's Bullshit regarding this. They pretty much sum it up.
end of thread !
the mayans used a 260 day calendar and we use a 365 day calender...so 2012 is off by a few hundred years...whether or not its 200 years past or 200 years in our future. We don't know in my opinion it is a load of bull. Though i do believe something big could happen in 2012 that could change our view of our world
http://www.ancient-world-mysteries.c...-calendar.html -- reasoning why the Mayan calender is a 260 per year Calender.
And @ picture...ROFL i always said the guy got lazy and said "oh the people in future should be smart enough to figure this out"...guess he was wrong lol.
There was a study, or rather, a reformulazation of the Mayan calender about 8 months ago (I believe from Stanford, not sure). But they calculated the end of the world of 2012 was miscalculated. There's about a 50 year margain for error going both ways, as in, anywhere from 1962 to 2062. End of the world has a 50% chance of already having happened. LOL.
Honestly, one of these days someone will be right about a date for the 'end of the world'. I hold a little bit of belief for every prediction just in case. I say understand the concern, but dont full out believe.

April 21: It begins the attack
Prepare for the end of the world.
Just a theory on when the world will end, but as people said, a load of bullshit. Ofcourse they have to end somewhere because of different reasons.
I lose faith in humanity when I see a load of people believing this ._. D:.
