So...2012=Doom?

I do not believe the world will end on that date this year. Hey, I might be wrong, who knows? I just wanted to hear some thoughts on this idea. I would rather live my life without worrying, because when it is your time to go, you go.

I'd say we could always go ask a Mayan .......if we could find one.

Seems that a culture that couldn't see their own demise couldn't possibly predict the end of time.

So I'll keep right on planning those future trips and adventures.

Yeah, but we're all 12 years older now (including the rations). Can you still defend them?

Defending them is absolutely no problem, keep them down might be another story.

I don't think it will end and it doesn't seem like it will in the near future. Natural disasters will probably continue to be more frequent and more disasterous. I do enjoy seeing articles and movies on the whole concept. It's just interesting to me with all the theories.

I'm often reminded of the attached image. While I admit to being no expert, there are some who say we have gotten their date wrong, and others that say it is not the end of the world, but more of a change in how we perceive the world, live in it, and so on, for lack of the right words.

I think a big reason the disasters seem more disastrous today is their effect on dense human population centers, combined with the speed news travels. When an avalanche happens way back in the range, it's not much of a story, but let it get close to a ski area...

Good point, Jason. Lorax has it right - if we're looking for credible predictions, we should look to people who saw their own trouble in time to get out of the way.
