Many thought it would be on the year 2000,y2k. There has been so many other times man has thought it would happen in history. Could this realy be IT? There is a Movie comeing out about it. a prevue is on yahoo movies. type 2012 in the search. It looks cool.
Is 2012 the real time of change? Will our world change or be destroyed on the day?
I think that 2012 is going to be just another year.
One of several Mayan calendars is the Long Count calendar, which is reset to day 0 every 1,872,000 days or 7057.5 years. The next reset date, by some calculations, is December 21, 2012. This is not a prediction of the end of the world.
These predictions are scare tactics, conspiracy theories, and chances to make money from books and movies.
Ever since the Y2K and 6/6/6 (June 6, 2006) End of the World scenarios did not pan out, the scare mongers, conspiracy theorists, book sellers, and television executives have been touting the 2012 End of the World scenario. When 2012 does not happen either, I am sure they will think of something else.
Here is also what NASA thinks about the 2012 End of the World scenario: http://pwg.gsfc.nasa.gov/stargaze/StarFA鈥?/a>

%26quot;But of that day or hour, no one knows, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be watchful! Be alert! You do not know when the time will come.%26quot; (Mark 13:32-33)
Jesus told us in no uncertain terms that we were not to know when the end of the world would come but that we were always to be ready.
The early Christian Church thought that Jesus was going to return at any moment. Only after a couple of centuries did the Church realize that it may be 2,000 or 4,000 or 8,000 years before Jesus returns.
The Catholic Church wisely follows Jesus' advice and teaches that each of us should live as if we will meet our maker in the next ten minutes and that we need to work to make the world a better place for our 100 X great-grandchildren.
Do not worry about the end of the world. Trust God to make sure everything happens to plan. Just be ready to meet God at any time.

Is 2012 the real time of change? Will our world change or be destroyed on the day?
No, it's just the time when stupid questions about 2012 will no longer get asked here
The movie will probably be very cool with all the effects, but I highly doubt 2012 will be the end of the world. Nobody would know that date.
No one knows the day or the hour of Christ's return.............which will usher in the end
Neither, it is the day before I come on here and show my contempt for doomsayers
no i dont think so wen the world comes to the i will tell u lol
Both will happen simutaneously with the election of the anti-christ, Sarah Palin.
No one truly knows but God
The world changes every day and has for the past 4.5 billion years. As to whether the world will be destroyed in 2012, I highly doubt it.
I prefer the idea of change, to destruction, otherwise there's not much point in making plans.
Change, however, can be a double edged sword; water changes when it turns to ice.
I'm hoping the change will have minimal impact.
2000 was about a computer based issue with the world. 2012 is something based upon a great many things all pointing to one time . . . I suppose with the heaviest influence from an ancient calendar. I am leaning towards change, and it ain't going to be pretty!
Someone told me that, at that time a 'GOD' is going to come to earth to clean up all the bad things around the world and make a better place for everyone to live in peace and harmony.
The Mayan prophecies speak to us of the changes towards the fifth Ajaw (fifth sun), on December 21, 2012. This date begins the period of 5,200 years. This is a cycle of wisdom, harmony, peace, love, consciousness and the return of the natural order.
It is not the end of the world as many from outside of the Mayan tradition have misinterpreted it to be. The fifth cycle will be a fusion of both feminine and masculine energies. It will be a transition where there won't be any more confrontations between the polarities. It will bring balance and there won't be hierarchy of one over the other. This period is one of harmony, love and the return of consciousness.
Yes, the movie does look promising but just like the movie the catastrophes many people are waiting for, it's make believe.
Mayan calendar ends that year is the only fact; funny thing,
Today is August 11. The Mayan calendar began on august 11, 3114 bc.
Time; the Mayans started counting it August 11, 3114 BC. Astronomical year numbering begins the year after.
This is very cool published today;
