    I love this ****, great fun.

    Clearly this is bull****, but who can tell with that 2012 thing. I guess we'll find out, but Im skeptical towards that too.

    Its all sweet though.

    I don't think this is going to happen. A thousand different doomsdays for a thousand different dates, all with different reasons and different proofs, and not one has been right yet.

    That Mayan one, though, on 2012, looks pretty interesting.

    fingers crossed... can only hope it's accurate, so i can witness humankind's well-earned dénouement... if i can last another 4 years, that is... 73-4 would be a good age to 'go out' on for me... want to leave while still useful and not needing to be cared for, thus a burden...

    I wouldnt get my hopes up. Theres just as much chance that on December 13 we all wake up and go "well, there ya go. Not true folks" as there is we dont wake up at all.

    I'll take out a ton of library books. Then they'll never be returned. MWUAHAHAHA.

    (come to think of it, I haven't been to a public library since I was 7..)

    Actually, though it is played up as an apocalypse, the Mayan "end-of-the-world" date is actually supposed to be a date where humanity phases into a higher consciousness ( Or something like that. ).

    So, yeah, the end of this world, strictly speaking.. but.. :p

    ^ True, and then the world is reborn, which could explain the predictions that 65% of the Earth's population will perish.

    I thought we dismissed Plant X as poppy cock? Oh wait. We did. Thus the video is irrelevant.

    Technically the world has already ended. Multiple times in fact.

    Early Christians believed the world would end before they died (The apostles believed this as well). As we all know Jesus didn't have idiots for disciples so the world ended before 100 AD.

    The fall of Rome in 476 was the end of the world.

    Turns out the day the Christians were force out of Jerusalem in 1187 by Saladin was also the end of the world.

    WWII was the end of the world too, or so they say.

    Cuban Missile Crisis. 1962. World ended.

    Y2K.

    Biblical scholars claimed 2006 was the end of the world.

    Isaac Newton Claimed the world will end after 2060.

    Honestly. What is it with humanity's fascination with its own destruction? Believe me. If the worlds going to end we're not going to see it coming.

    PS: If your going to claim the world is ending back it up with a legitimate source that actually has credible evidence.

    Me? I'm not claiming it's true. He just asked where I got my "facts" from so I gave the source. No harm in that ...
