2012 End of the World

2012 End of the World

uploaded by kakarotoni

2012 has been a superstition to be the "End of the World" in many cultures around the world.  One of the major evidence to be found is from the writings of the Mayan culture.  The Mayans were brilliant artist of studying astrology and predicting events around the world.  For some reason their calendar ends in the year 2012 A.D. which has brought up many suspicions.  Are you ready for a major catastrophic event if it was to happen in your local area or to your family?  It is always better to be safe then sorry, some have even published major catastrophe survival guides to help aid others in advance.

Could it be that there is some sort of catastrophic event to occur in the year 2012?  Or is this some sort of superstition similar to the Y2K controversy?  This is my article which will be updated and revised periodically for the sole purpose of letting society be aware of what could come or what is to come. 

I will pull out a number of evidence and facts I found to support my article.  I am in a neutral position of what could happen.  Because why would I want the world to end?  I would rather be prepared of what could possibly happen rather then deny what could happen.  This should not scare others but bring awareness of what man kind could fall into.

The "End of the World" is stated in the Bible, in Nostradamos's prophecies, and even in Mayan culture.  There are a number of websites dedicated for the "2012 End of the World" concept which has brought a lot of debate on the table.  SatansRapture is one website that offers a number of information about the predictions.  The site speaks of a large comet that could travel through our solar system causing catastrophic world changes.  Some call it Planet X and others call it Nibiru . Supposedly this comet is larger than Jupiter and if it ever passes through our solar system it could cause planet Earth to shift the world's polar axis which could cause severe weather conditions such as tornados, hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, and climate changes. But, that is not simply enough to convince any normal reader that this could be true. 

Photobucket

Well, if some website made by a proclaimed doomsday fan just brings skepticism then what about Nasa?  What can Nasa tell us about Nibiru?  Check this out, Nasa claims to have found another planet Nasa Site

However, a simple chance of a comet colliding with the Earth is still possible but also slim.  It has happened before and it’s more the possible to happen again.  Could mankind be ready for this?  Some engineers are developing nuclear warheads to use specifically on large objects that could collide with the Earth. 

But, let’s forget about the comet theory for a bit.  There are other hazardous things that could destroy life as we know it.  The issue of "Global Warming" should not be neglected and be taken very seriously.  However with natural "green" energy us humans could reverse global warming by installing natural energy into our own homes How to Build Solar Energy which is just one of many examples to control global warming.  With the whole "green house effect" and temperatures rising every year the world will witness weather changes that could be irreversible.  Would anyone believe that this could be the first time in human history where the North Pole will melt away completely by the end of summer?  Could this play a role in "2012 End of the World" theory or possibly later on?  I found an article about it located here if anyone is interested....North Pole gone by the end of summer.

Photobucket

So let’s say "Global Warming" never causes any catastrophic events and amazingly people like Al Gore helps contribute to reverse it and humans go about their daily lives like nothing happened.  We are forgetting other problems that could destroy us.  Political tensions and the wars in the Middle East play a big role in the survival of human kind. 

With the wars going on in the Middle East many believe it could get worse.  How long has the war with Iraq been going on for?  I remember just being a college student of the age of 20 years old when America first started bombing Iraq.  And that was years ago.  Sure, America has accomplished a lot in Iraq but there is a huge debate on what the main reason for the invasion to begin with.  From what I remember there was supposedly "weapons of mass destruction" in Iraq.  No weapons of mass destruction were found.  And Iraq did not play a role in 9/11 either.  But, I believe 9/11 triggered one of the reasons to invade Iraq as a purpose for "war against terrorism". 

Photobucket

Either way it’s too late to point fingers at this time.  There are issues in Afghanistan that need to be taken care of as well.  Many lives have been taken, and I hope it’s not in vain.  I wish someday that the world could be at peace and let everybody live their own lives equally in respect.  The major issue I would like to bring up is Nuclear Weaponry.  We have made threats or what others could call ultimatums against North Korea and Iran to cease any further nuclear weaponry.  Iran will not give up and simply laughs at America.  And honestly if we ever invaded Iran it would be more difficult then Iraq was.  North Korea however eventually cooperated with America and destroyed any Nuclear development.  Are you ready for a potential nuclear war or even another World War? 

These military guides could come in handy visit 1000 military guides

What would happen if two counties decided to bomb each other with Nuclear warheads?  The effects would be everlasting and could take many lives for years to come.  A nuclear explosion is equal if not stronger then the temperature of the Sun.  And the radiation a nuclear bomb puts off could affect surrounding areas for a very long time.  This results in cancer caused by radiation and many lives slowly fading away.  A large enough nuclear bomb could cause an artificial winter destroying plant life and animals that depend on this type of food source.  It's all a chain reaction that has nothing but negative effects. 

swineflue

Now another pandemic disease outbreak is on the potential rise with new virus's such as the Swine Flu and the Bird Flu.  Could this be another sign of the apocalypse?   Humans have witnessed and outlived pandemic outbreaks before in the past with the black plague, malaria, smallpox, Aids, etc.  However, this doesn't mean that there could be a potential worldwide outbreak that could infect millions if not billions.  Even if something such as the Swine Flu was to infect at least 1/3 of the world's population, then I believe it would be something that could not be contained at that point.  It is scary to think about how a virus could mutate into something that our natural immune systems could not fight against.  Be aware of what the Swine Flu and Bird Flu are exactly and how you can protect yourself and your family against infection please take a quick look at Swine Flu and Bird Flu Survival Guide

economy

And what is up with the Economy people?!?!  Seriously, America and most of the world is in an economic mess that is going to take quite some time to get out of.  How does this happen to begin with?  Who is to blame?  How do we get out of it?  Many people would speculate that Ex. President Bush got America into economic depression but really can you put all the blame on just one person?  I think not!  People are using too much resources and everything is becoming more expensive each day.  We are spending too much in the West while the East is saving up so that puts an imbalance on the economy?  The reality is, America is borrowing money from other countries like China and soon enough the American dollar will lose its value further.  I can't even begin to talk about what else is going on but if you want to ride the economic tsunami and survive this depression please visit Economic Survival Guide

So, as much as I love this life and enjoy the planet we lay upon there plays a lot of risk living here.  Some of the risk we can't prevent and others we can prevent.  To reduce the risk is an easier living then what could be.  Whatever happens in 2012 I hope it’s not the "End of the World"  The world is a beautiful place and we should treat it as a gift that could not be replaced.  I hope that everyone realizes the reality of our situation as today is here and tomorrow is never guaranteed. And please folks lets all contribute on preventing "global warming" by installing natural energy into our homes. Natural Energy Resources

I am a believer!  My boyfriend and I are welcoming the change in 2012.  We believe the theory that aliens are coming to Earth and helping us to a new dimension.  The evidence is clear and everyone will know the truth in 4 years.  Change is near (and i'm not just talking about Obama.

My question is:  Where do you think the best place to spend December 21st, 2012 would be?

I'm thinking the Mayan pyramids in Mexico.  However, my boyfriend thinks the Egyption pyramids.

How many people will be sittin' in their rocking chairs,  like they were in 2000,  waiting for all hell to break loose and it will slowly dawn on them that NOTHING is going to happen.  Life, with all its joys and tragedies, will continue on as before.  NO one knows the current universal plan.  There are great, enlightened beings on the other side who have greater plans for us than the destruction of this earth and humanity.  It will not be permitted.  See "Benjamin Creme".

Well did you just say that that will happen before 2012?

I would only ask then, that when it does not happen that way, will you please stop forever with that blind-faith twisted nonsense, and stop inflicting hunderds-of-years old myths and superstitions and fear-mongering on those around you and the rest of us?  Please.

So talk of the rapture and then there will be 3 1/2 years of peace.  So if the calendar ends on 12-21-2012 then count back 3 1/2 years from that and it would be 6-20-2009 which is in 28 days.  Whatever your beliefs may be, is it worth even the slight chance not to make your life right, and then if this doesn't happen then you would still be a better person anyway right.

Dec 21st 2012, you should be on your Knees confessing your sins to the Lord of Glory and Pray for your loved ones to do the same. Im not saying this to be mean, however I think it is time for the world to get ready to meet their maker. When, That is up to Him. But, the sign are happening in every culture and religion. Ready the Watchman!

If the WORLD is coming to an end, there is no point running around screaming. Depending on how the World meets it's end, there may be nothing you can do to prepare, your going to die. If you want to die with 5 years of Spam in your basement, I suppose that's fine. I'd spend my money living for the now.

I totally agree...everyone is this world dies and one person's death is the end of the world for them.....

I am not religious, nor am I a scholar.  I AM extremely spiritual, however.  Dropping out of college to move to Vegas when I was 22 in pursuit of an "entertainment career"--now being  36--my entire life has been devoted to questioning the world around me.  Having NEVER drank, smoke, or done drugs, I have actually gained far greater insight just by reading LOTS of books.  In fact, I'm in the process of writing a 4-book series...3 of an "entrepreneurial nature" and the other concerning "manners and common courtesy".  3 of the 4 books venture into metaphysical and philosophical topics.

Now...without getting too far off the beaten path, I merely wanted to inject that first paragraph to establish "background and credibility".

Dec. 21, 2012.  Interesting date, to say the least.  Up until a few months ago, I knew absolutely nothing about this topic.  A book entitled "Mysteries of The Crystal Skulls" sparked my interest after the debauchery of the 4th "Indiana Jones" installment.  Towards the end of the "Skulls" book, it divulged into the Mayan calendar system being the most sophisticated the world has ever known.  Cool stuff.  Earlier authors I have ventured into have also talked about "other dimensions", "beings of light", "9/11 conspiracy", "earth disasters", and other such insightful subjects.

Long story short...NOBODY can deny that the world is going to Hell.  CNN shoves it in our faces 24 hours a day.  Climate shifts (3 inches of snow in Las Vegas!?!), the economy, "Global Warming", "astrological alignment / impending planet killers from other-heavenly bodies, and people inherantly destroying ourselves and this beautiful planet.  We as humanity are on the brink of an Awakening.  As far as the "doomsday theorists" and the like are concerned, this doesn't necessarily signify something catastrophic.

I, myself, for years have spewed out random comments to weary strangers to the tune of:  "I'm bored with this plane of existence; I'm ready to transcend to the next level."  So until that fateful day in 2012, you can find me doing what I do best..."chillin' out".  If I were to die tomorrow I can honestly admit:  I'm the happiest I've EVER been.  How many people can make a proclomation of that proportion? 

Have you made peace with who / what you really are?  Fascinating stuff.  Are you thinking yet?

Thanks for reading.

You are welcoming the change?  Where should you be on 12-21-2012??  Hopefully you will not be here and you were taken with the Rapture, for all believers you should not worry of 12-21-2012 for you should already be at home with God himself before this day comes.

What will happen before 2012?

The Bible confirms one thing that JESUS CHRIST is LORD and he promised to come back. 1 Thessalonians 3:13-18

Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of  men, who have no hope. We believe that JESUS died and rose again and so we believe that GOD will bring with JESUS those who have fallen asleep in him. According to the LORD'S own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the LORD, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the LORD himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of GOD, and the dead in CHRIST will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up toghether with them in the clouds to meet the LORD in the air. And so we will be with the LORD forever. "THE RAPTURE"

After the rapture occurs there will be peace for three and a half year, then sudden destruction also known as judgment days. The time is here like the days of Noah and Sodom & Gomorra.
