What will happen at the end of 2012?
The Mayans, Egyptians, Nostradamus, have all have predicted that a galactic alignment shall occur on December 21 2012, modern astronomers have confirmed this as fact. The Book of Revelation in the Bible also predicts that the end-of-the-world will come, in fact the world-religions:
Many also believed that the year 2000 was suppose to be the end, however, nothing happened. Will December 21 2012 be a similar situation with a lot of hype and then nothing? Most likely nothing will happen?? Why are people making even more of a fuss this time around?
2012 end of the world is probably not going to be Armageddon like the media and Internet Blogs would have you believe. It's very interesting though, why all the fuss? Eventually another global catastrophe is bound to occur, but will it by chance be on December 21? I really don't think any major global catastrophe will happen around that same time frame, but we'll just have to wait and see.
The Mayans really believed that 2012 end of the world would actually be more of a transition phase, pointing to a new period in time. Eventually mankind will have to change and continue to adapt naturally to the world climate. Remember change usually starts at the family level, after that the government, and after that the world. The Mayan's were a very superstitious race and they almost certainly would have believed back then that the world would eventually come to an end no later than December 21 2012. They could be way of base on their predictions;
Throughout history, there have been many prophecies of the end of the world. Many which attempt to get specific end up being proven wrong by virtue of the world continuing to exist. Others haven't been proven yet one way or the other, because their dates haven't come yet. 2012 prophecies are among the latter group. More at: http://www.2012worldcountdown.com.
Offline, there have been some rumblings about 2012 prophecies, but online is where there are many mentions of this theory. Every forum seems to have at least one thread about 2012, bloggers who are willing to discuss things of this nature have jumped on it, and there are several sites about it.
So what are these 2012 prophecies? Basically, they all stem from one root fact: The ancient Mayan calendar ends in 2012. This fact is believed by Mayan-prophecy adherents to signal that the entire world will end at that point; that the Mayans didn't bother to make another calendar because they figured they wouldn't need one.
Specifics of this world-ending vary depending on who is interpreting the data. Some believe the world will end with a cataclysmic natural disaster, such as a meteor strike, while others who want more believability tone it down a bit and claim that it will be "the end of the world as we know it" rather than an outright destruction of the planet itself. There is a bit of interesting science thrown in, like the fact that there is projected to be an event known as a galactic eclipse on December 12th, 2012. This is only supposed to happen every 28,600 years. 2012 prophecy believers think this may herald some major changes for the Earth.
Needless to say, skeptics abound. Even though some other Mayan prophecies seem to have been accurate, these skeptics point out several logical holes in the 2012 prophecies. Among these counterpoints are simple observations like the fact that Mayan culture may have simply ended before their scholars could put together another calendar. Others say that the Mayan calendar system consisted of set periods far longer than one year, and this one just happens to end in 2012. They claim there is no special significance to this at all.
Like most nebulous prophecies, there are points and counterpoints revolving around every possibility whether for or against. The only way to know for sure, unfortunately, will be to wait until 2012 and see what actually happens.
