Re: World coming to an end?

When we begin listening to the words printed on the pages of books that is when the world comes to an end. Natural disaters have been happening to mankind since the start of time yet we're still here today.

But if a super volcano erupts,then mankind would be on its knees,probably for the last time.

Re: The end of the world!!!

Leap Years weren't taken into account... had they been, the world should have ended like 7x over lol.

Re: The end of the world!!!

"Ever since Ceasar created the Leap Year in 54 BC, there have been approximately 514 leap years. If this extra day didn't come around every four years, it would be July 2013. The Mayans did not have leap years when they made the calendar, nor did the account for leap years being created in the future. Therefore their calendar has tecnically ended about seven months ago."

naniiiiiii ?

Never believe in such thing. No one knows when it'll happen. That's a crap

The World is Going to End Not.

(This is me being what is commonly referred to as a whiny bitch.)

Staaaahp, making all of the world ending threads. I don't feel like coming back every once and a while to once again describe why the world is most likely not going to end this year. If by some freak incident of who knows what mystifying, glorious piece of pigeon shit, you have my permission, guaranteed now, to come return and gleefully dance over my erroneous corpse.

I will assert the world is not ending, because;

1. We've had doom prophecies for years, each of them as credible as the Mayans, a primitive and isolated civilization, and all of them were wrong.
2. In the off chance that someone wants to use the date as a prerogative to stir up shit, the chances that the culprits would have enough power/influence to actually end the world is slim to none. Let's call it .1% chance to be generous.

Two main reasons. Now please, for my sake, (cause I will whine and bitch at every opportunity given) stop making threads about the world ending. Let's just sit back and watch it all unfold.

Edit: Let's not forget, you can already post in an existing "The World ends?" thread. Making new ones is unnecessary.

(This was, I do admit, a useless public service announcement. I needed to get that off my chest.)

Re: The World is Going to End Not.

While I don't believe in the end of the world stuff, your argument about leap years is irrelevant:

Some people here have already given good answers regarding leap year in the Mayan calendar. But the Mayans actually had three calendars: one that was essentially a solar calendar, another that was a religious calendar, and a third calendar that was used for keeping historical records. This third calendar is the only one that's relevant to your question, because this is the one that some people are using to predict the end of the universe.

This long-count calendar isn't a calendar as much as a counting system. You know how we use a base-10 counting system? (10, 100, 1000, 10,000 etc.) The Mayans used a modifed base-20 counting system for keeping track of days - the second cycle went up to 18 rather than 20. So they tracked days in cycles of 20, 360, 7200, 144000, 2880000, etc.

We're coming to the end of one of the 144,000 day cycles. The concept of leap-years is irrelevant to this calendar system, because it's not based on solar years, simply on pure math. I've got no opinion of whether the calculated date of Dec 12, 2012 as the end of the cycle is accurate. But if it is inaccurate, it's for reasons that have nothing to do with leap years.

It does say the calculated date is December 12th though...is that a typo?

Re: The World is Going to End Not.

People are stupid. We might as well to as are normal lives are intended.

Hell they even made a damn movie. Why? Cause it's on people's minds. This world ending is none other then bull crap. 2012 world ending is not gonna happen. It never will.

If you believe it than whats stoping you? There's nothing we can do even if it happens. Nothing. We might as well go are merry way and do what we want in life rather than live in fear.
