Tizzle:
Your friend obviously doesn't know what he is talking about at all, even if a magnetic polar reverse were to occur, nothing bad would come of it, except for some electronics malfunctioning. The magnetic field of the earth has switched countless times in the past, therefor unless you deny that the field has reversed in the past, then you must accept that a reversal is likely to cause no harm. If you claim that the magnetic field has never been reversed, then how can you predict the time of its reversal, as you have no patterns to follow, or past events to base it upon. Also, being able to predict that accurately when the field will reverse seems unlikely, as the evidence for magnetic field reversal is not nearly so precise as to yield a specific year.
Complete Nonsense.

I like Einstein's idea better. He said the world would end in 2080 or something like that. Which is really close is you consider it. I forget why he thought that though.
Yeah, umm where did you get that information?
So on 12 21, 2012 a calendar is supposed to quit working? How can that be?[/NOTRIGHT]

Science Class?
It's not like a big secret he calculated that, it's mentioned in a few places.
It will be judgment day, as SC 2 will be released that day.
Little will the world know that it's real, and the protoss will 'purify' the planet, raining the proverbial fire from the sky while janet jackson sings her last concert in front of the U.N.

I've heard a lot of garbage about the world ending on certain dates, and none have been true so far. However, if this guy predicted the names of all our popes and shiz like that, that's pretty impressive and I doubt it's coincidence.
I can't say it's total bullshiz, but that's what I'm feeling.
But what if it actually happens? ;P
the bible never says any dates. all you can infer from bible is after now.
if the pope's names are true. yeah thats pretty scary.
All of this stuff is bullcrap. It will be a normal day.
don't forget the comet to hit 2012!
I knew about this as well. I had to study the mayians. The fact that their calender just stops at december 21 2012 just because they were to lazy to extend it doesn't mean anything will happen which I think is most likely.
I'll be 23 at the time, probably at some dorm party, getting someone pregnant!
Nothing is going to happen. This is just another assumption, another "theory," just like "God." If they said Cliffard the Big Red Dog would come and destroy us all, would you believe it?

But if he did come, we'd be helpless! Who would fire on him, he's a beloved children's character!
Me.
IMO nothing is going to happen will be a normal day like any other
A bit about the Mayan calendar: just because it says "our world will end" does not mean "we're all going to die". It's not a timeline, it's a cycle. See the differences?
I don't think the world is actually going to come to an end, but when that day does come, I'll bet you a million dollars somebody (or many people) are going to try to pull a hoax or something.
We all will die this year.
The Mayans were also heavily into alcohol, and were drunk alot of the time. Hopefully they were drunk when they made the calender.
wait, did nostradomis acualy predict the line of popes? i thought all his stuff was mostly like vague mentions of hitler and stuff...
x.x
what the heck, ahlf the stuff is probaboly made up anyway. 2012 has been hyped up so much as the next doomsday date. everytime one doomsday fails, people choose another date that has lots of vague mentions to the end of the world with it. a ton of people thought the world would end at 12:00 AM January 1, 2000.
Yes nothing is going to happen. It will be a regular day just like any other day. Doom day dates have been made up for so long and none ever appear to be right. As stated before ex. Jan 1, 2000
What reason is there to believe the 2000 one? It's a pretty number and all but?
The Great Mayans predicted the 2012 one however, I don't believe it... and as for doom ever coming? I am doubtful. But there is that other Galaxy coming at us pretty fast
... That'll be funny in a few Billion Years. (I think it is predicted for like 5 Billion Years from now?)
That's the Universal Galactic Dooms Day, and I do so hope we have intergalactic travel by then or else we're boned.
who cares about the 5 billion years thing? i thought by that time the sun was supposed to have grown big and red and consumed earth anyway, soon to collapse upon itself into a small dense object probably not a black hole because our sun isnt big enough but still a high-gravity shrimpy thing. in other words, wed all be dead by then anyway.
btw, i may be mistaken, but wasn't 12/12/12 made up by Weekly World News?
