Maybe because it doesn`t exist?

No it's a theory of what will happan in five years from now. Not that I 100% think that something will happan.

2012 will be as big as Y2K.

I'v only heard 'Y2K' on Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories on the radio.

What, you don`t remember the end of the world???

I remember. It was new year 2001 (or was it 2000?) and nobody cared. At least not where I live.

Isn't the "shit" (lol I mean shift) the event when the Earths magnetic feild shifts around? So north will be south and the other way around. Leaving us unprotected for a short while to "evil spacey radiation". I heard that it could happen any time now, because there are some anomalies showing up in the field. Oh well.

The fact that North will be South doesn't really sound evil, please explain.

it just means the poles which switch roundor something. Like North will be south, south will be north. I think they fear that when that happens the Earths magnetic feild wont be strong for a period of time until it balances out again and maybe radiation will be let through or something...

AND WE WILL ALL DIE!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Yeah, thats the problem. Its ironic, that the sun will kill us but without there would be no life..

As they said. The only thing protecting us from various kinds of radiation, like solar flares, is the magnetic field. When it flips, it will leave us unprotected for some X amount of time. Did you know that a trans-Atlantic flight exposes you to an amount of radiation, equal to one X-ray session? That's why flight attendants have lots of problems with cancer and other gene mutations like that. Space is full of fun and fancy physics stuff like that. Also many astronauts saw flashing lights when looking out the window, which was cosmic radiation screwing with their eyes. They also had problems with their eyes later in life. There are so many things that could go wrong, it's awesome. At least we won't be bored.

Well, I just hope to fuck that nothing happans.

At least some people in the world believe it won't happan.

Just hide in the bath, it'll all be fine.

You sure? The water will keep heating up untill you die of a very horrible and painfull death, the person who does that will burn to death, but burn most, and then die.

Putin is assumed to come back to power in 2012.

Don't worry about it. As some people said, the magnetic poles will shift and we'll all die then. Havn't they been due to switch... I think I'm getting that confused with something else.

Yes actually. I think they said that the flip should've happened by now.

Ugh, you people... OK, first of all, it's called a geomagnetic reversal. Second of all, it's happened thousands of times already, and not one of them has caused a mass extinction, this includes the one that our ancestors were exposed to many millenia ago. Third of all, it takes hundreds, thousands of years even for the magnetic field to deteriorate before the inversion; given the present field strength, there is no way in hell that such an event would suddenly take place in 2012. Enough already...

It'll be the year 6666 we should be worrying about now!

*Tries to start a new topic how we're all going to die in 6666"

I didn't know we were talking about it happening in 2012 .
New threat! A comet on a collision course!

Thank you Spartiate for ignoring the fact that 2012 is not supposed to be the end of the world...

Recently, it appears that solar irradiance is varying in ways that aren't duplicated by changes in sunspot observations or radio emissions. However, this conclusion is disputed. Some believe that shifts in irradiance may be the result of calibration problems in the measuring satellites. These speculations also admit the possibility that a small long term trend might exist in solar irradiance, though the data chosen for this plot do not have a significant trend. Also, the differences in flare activity over the three cycles would not be related to possible measurement artifacts in irradiance.

With respect to global warming, though solar activity has been at relatively high levels during the recent period, the fact that solar activity has been near constant during the last 30 years precludes solar variability from playing a large role in recent warming. It is estimated that the residual effects of the prolonged high solar activity account for between 18 and 36% of warming from 1950 to 1999.

Mars is Melting- Simultaneous warming on Earth and Mars suggests that our planet's recent climate changes have a natural—and not a human-induced—cause, according to one scientist's controversial theory.

While you are welcome to joke about what is to come, when all signs point to yes, it's pretty hard to just ignore.

Whether it's at the hands of Nibiru, the Annunaki, the New World Order, or Solar max...something's going to push us into dramatic change. I never once thought we are all doomed. It's just a transition, some choose to deny or fight it...while others choose to openly accept it...it all depends on what your priorities are.

Well, i'm certainly gonna keep my eye on it and try to schedule a trip far inland on that date, but , yeah, it could just as well turn out be a big 'ol NADA. Guess we'll find out. however I wanna share something with y'all, and please dont take it the wrong way.

Most rligions of the world believe in doomsday, apocalypse, etc., whatever. I've studied Islam quite extensively,and they, too believe in an apocalypse. They believe that the anti-christ (who they call Dajjal) will come, and that Jesus -who they believe was a prophet of God-will descend and kill Dajjal. Prior to this a man named Muhammad bin(son of) Abdullah will arise. His coming was propesied by the Prophet Muhammad-who's father was also named Abdullah,and from whom this man shall be descended. Cant remember what his role is to be, but he will be known as Imam (reverend/priest/whatever) al-Mahdi (dunno meaning). He become known at age 40 ,and will hence forth take on his destined role.

I know a Saudi man who has a cousin who can interpret dreams-in a psychic way, mind you. I believe he's the real deal, cuz I had this man have his cousin interpret a dream for me, and he told me something about myself, that he couldn't have known. Anyway I was told that his cousin discovered from someone's dream that al-Mahdi has already been born, and is 28 years old currently. If this is true...well...makes ya wonder. He'll be 33 by dec. 2012. 33 seems to be one of those 'magic' numbers that crop up in Islam, too, but I'm probably overdoing it a bit, loool. Interesting though. *off to go study more religions*

i think 2012 will hold a potentially catostrophic event. the outcome will depend on how well the public is informed. There may also be massive UFO landings. that's what my research has come up with anyway. nonetheless this is the most interesting time to be alive!

I also think that it will be something to do with UFOs. After all, in the link that ExoByte posted, the Mayans actually just said that this would "be a time of great realization and great change for mankind", nothing about the end of the world. You never know, maybe we'll learn something from aliens, like the link suggests - "changes would happen so that mankind comprehends how the universe works so we could advance to superior levels".
In my opinion its inevitable that there are so called "aliens" out there, so maybe 2012 is the year we will meet them. And maybe they'll teach us great new things
