[quote:Sol Neman:MV8yMDU5NzAxXzM0NjUwNTA2XzJFNDVENzg4] I am intrigued by this date. I understand that the Mayan's had to pick some date to end their calendar and that their calendar was based on the cycle of our solar system, which is about 26,000 earth years in duration. I also understand we've been able to convert the Mayan calendar end date to our current calendar which is 12/21/2012 and this date is an arbitrary number. That is not the part that intrigues me though. What I find most interesting is that there are multiple other cultures & religions that also coincide with this date or rather time-frame. There have been too many coincidences lately; whether it be Biblical prophecy, "new age" ideas or prophecy from the indigenous tribes of the America's...they all seem to point to this date or rather, time-frame, given the events that have been unfolding before our eyes. Granted, you have to dig for some of the information so you can connect the dots, but once you have connected the dots, what becomes even more amazing is seeing how many other people act or are completely blind to all of this... We've had increased seismic activity with increasingly larger earthquakes; volcanoes that have been dormant for centuries are starting to wake up; one polar ice cap is melting while the other is expanding; weather events have been breaking records year after year; unexplained, mass animal die-off's; plagues; drought; escalating violence; and I could go on... All the while the so called "experts" such as, meteorologists, biologists, geologists have either been "baffled" or unable to explain the unprecedented, record breaking or record setting events that are occurring. While at the same time anthropologists, astronomers, archaeologists and the like, have been making "new" discoveries almost every day which, oddly enough have been proving or clarifying what has been written in many ancient texts or spoken of in the oral histories passed down through the ages, especially in regards to faith/religious based text. Even for a skeptical person such as myself the evidence is compelling... [/quote]
Original Message
"Mankind has long been fascinated with doomsday and hundreds of thousands of predictions have been made about the end of our world. While most of these are associated with the second coming of Christ, the focus is now on the Maya civilization of Southern Mexico and the end of their calendar on December 21, 2012..."
