I like how because I've got different opinions that everyone else I'm a troll.

Real mature..

Misheard Whisper October 3rd, 2009 8:04 PM

It's not your opinions. It's how you phrase those opinions.

This has nothing to do with opinion. You talked in absolutes, as if Yahweh himself came down and told you this. And if that isn't enough, what will happen is not opinion. If I say that the Y2K bug will suddenly come back in June 30, 2010, that has nothing to do with opinion. If it happens, then I was telling the truth. If it doesn't, then I was lying.

Did you forget that you said this? And I quote...
Quote:

But you'll be the one to see the end of the world, you'll have a horrible death while I will already be dead. No doubt you'll see the savage blood stains crash so violently to the floor as you yourself are killed. The world crashing before you and there will be nothing you can do about it, you'll try to end your life peacefully but it will fail. You'll be killed in the most painfullway possible.
Now I am guilty of the same thing, but I apologize for talking in absolutes that I don't know about. But I will tell you this;

I am 99% sure that the world will not end on the twenty first of December on 2012. I don't take supernatural things seriously because there is no evidence, apart from some guys talking about choppy stories and outdated calenders. Come on, show me the evidence. And I don't want to hear "cal3nDurs @nD pr0pheT [email protected] e3t", give me a logical response.

22sa October 4th, 2009 12:00 AM

The middle east isn't strong enough to trigger apocalypse yet. I doubt this will happen for at least another 100 years.

Ravecat October 4th, 2009 1:16 AM



Absolutes can still be opinions.

Pokémon Emerald is better than Pokémon Crystal. It's an absolute, but it's an opinion too. See how that works?
The world is going to end in 2012, I am going to kill myself, you are going to die. Still just an opinion, whether it deals with absolutes or not.

You don't need "It's my opinion that..." in a sentence to make it an opinion.

kay3o October 4th, 2009 1:32 AM

Jesus, there my believes and my opinions. I don't have show you people evidence for my believes they are mine. Learn to respect people for others views, seriously.

Because at the moment you ALL expect for Ravecat are ****ing Nazis and its terrible.
You're crucifying me for my believe what's wrong on SO many levels, I mean why don't you go and start up a 'Christianity is 100% untrue and fake" thread.

Åzurε October 4th, 2009 10:11 AM

Before we lose ourselves, mind explaining how we're being "Nazis"?
I think you should try reading what you write from a 3rd- person perspective, before you actually post it. Trust me, it'll help you avoid all the troll comments, which you did appear to be making. Like Sparkly said, phrasing.

Heeey, you're still here...

You can't always expect respect for your beliefs if you can't support them.

And Nazi's? Crucified? Let's not be so dramatic.

Pokeyomom October 4th, 2009 10:25 AM

Yeah this thread might need to be capped. It's to bad that fanatics have to come and ruin an enjoyable convo:/

Kay30- Grow up. Seriously.

I think Nostradamus is going to become re-incarnate and do the chicken dance. This is just my non-scholarlly, off the cuff analysis. I guess we will wait and see;p

I invoke Godwin's Law.

But to stay on topic (sort of), you're perfectly entitled to your views on the apocalypse. That's what this thread is for anyway. What people don't like is when you criticise their views then whine about how they're criticising yours.

Pokeyomom October 4th, 2009 10:34 AM

Yes, but what he is not entitled to is threatining a horrible death on any members of this forum. What even makes this more scary- is he is behaving like this with no sound theoretical/empirical/ or even anecdotal basis. He is making no sense, and being an ass to everyone here.

If I was a mod you would be infracted Kay30. There is no excuse for the way you are behaving.

(P.S. don't play the "i'm the martyr" card. Your volley of insults doesn't represent a religious standpoint, but rather your own immaturity/egotism.)

Without the stars, the passage of time halts, hence the end of the calendar. Also, he brought up the point that it's interesting how the "end of the world" occurs on the Winter Solstace.

Obviously everything will freeze over causing an ice age thus the progression of time is impossible to calculate in which then time stops but not truly just in recording. Pretty freaky to think about really.

Pokeyomom October 4th, 2009 1:51 PM

That's crazy. But I don't see how that would invoke planetary freezing? One star can't possibly eclipse all of the galaxies stars? Plus our ecodynamics arn't dependent upon other stars anyways- the sun is what keeps us alive:) Maybe I got it wrong though, do you mean the stars eclipsing the sun??? I don't see how this is possible either?

Anyhoo I don't think anything will happen. If i'm wrong I don't have to pay my end haha:p

JP October 4th, 2009 3:29 PM

Some out of the ordinary things will definitely happen on that date simply because people expect it to happen. You believe in something for too long and you're bound to see "evidence" of it. Your mind becomes clouded and you begin to not reason properly.

Like others, I don't believe the world will end in 2012. People will of course die, just like any other day though. But again, I do think we will see out of the ordinary things happening because people will feel the need to see something "weird" on this date.

And that whole "time freezing" thing doesn't make one bit of sense, not to me at least. o_O

Threatening? I'm sharing my views, everyone who is going to experience this apocalypse is going to suffer a horrible death, It's just hey I'm going into little detail. It's the same as a Priest of any church saying if you don't follow this religion you're going to burn in hell forever. But seriously everyone has there own belvies and becuase mine aren't that "logcial" as you may thing I'm immature and wrong. Hell I'm not having ago at anyone else for there views, I respect them for it.

Misheard Whisper October 5th, 2009 12:45 AM

The problem is, dude, nobody appreciates being told they're going to die a horrible, painful death. Try being nice about your views, even if they're a bit different. If you can't find a way to post constructively on the topic, just leave this thread alone. That's a variation on the proverb 'If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all.'

Haza October 5th, 2009 12:55 AM

I just have one more thing to say. i certainly hope the world doesnt end then. I want to see the 5th generation of Pokemon!

2012 December is going to be fun. I don't believe in such things, but there are a lot of theories about it... I wonder if all of them are false, or are some of them somewhat correct?
I don't know which day is going to be my last day on earth, but I just want to be with the people I love on that day...

Åzurε October 5th, 2009 9:06 AM

Perhaps you're just nitpicking, Pompa, but those were confirmed as works of fiction by the authors. By the same attitude you're portraying, couldn't you say that everything ever written by Darwin is 100% false? That Newton was sadly mistaken when he wrote "Gravity exists"? If you scrawled on a paper "the sky is blue today", It's obviously false? Or are you comparing everything he believes to such fictional works...?

Darwin and Newton can back up their conclusions with recorded research. Kay3o has been asked to support his/her claims, and has yet to do so.

Misheard Whisper October 5th, 2009 10:23 AM

I do believe La Pompa is just being random as usual, rather than actually trying to make a valid point. *kicks*

Spearow October 5th, 2009 6:32 PM

Could someone please define for me "the end of the world"?

Like, are we talking our planet just spontaneously vaporizing? Or the universe as we know it, EVERYTHING ceasing to exist. Cause that is pretty big right there. Think about it - it makes about as much practical sense as the concept of infinity.

Misheard Whisper October 5th, 2009 7:16 PM

Of course it makes no sense! What could possibly happen to end the world in only two years that we haven't already picked up? Any asteroids (seems to be the most popular theory) on a potential collision course with Earth are picked up years beforehand. Global warming etc etc will take years. What could possibly happen?

Actually, the most widely accepted theory held by the scholars that study the Nostradamus prophecies and the ones of the ancient world is that a global war is what will destroy humanity. >_>

Like I said before, that would be more of a self-fulfilling prophecy than anything really profound. No one starts a war on accident and the nutjob warlord that does decide to spark a war on that date was most likely influenced by these 2012 prophecies. >_<

Sadly, I can see that happening. Perhaps he'll decide that it's his God-given duty to end the world. Like the Japanese in Six Sacred Stones.

Captain Fabio October 6th, 2009 1:34 PM

There is no actual hard proof that this even is going to occur.

It is just a myth and has been ignited by paranoia over the many years.

Spearow October 6th, 2009 2:35 PM

Well, you could argue that there can be no "hard proof" that anything is ever GOING to occur, in any case at all. Most scientists aren't fool enough to proclaim any prediction/speculation, no matter how well-founded it may seem, as set in stone (not that this 2012 nonsense has any legitimate scientific backing, but you know what I mean)

But that's just, you know. Smartassery. :P

Shadow-Lugia October 6th, 2009 3:24 PM

ok, well firstly (and this is NOT a reply to the last post in any way) the mayan calender end in 2012 because it was WAY to far to predict.

secondly, i was reading Newscientest the other week, and apparently some scientests think in 2012 (by coincedence) we will be i prime position to be hit by a plasma ball from the sun knocking out all our power grids, in the busiest parts of the world slowly killing all but the 3rd-world countrys.

and thirdly (forget the year 2012) if there is a WWIII then our technology will destroy the earth. (you know nukes, chemical warfare, etc.)

was I too much of a smartass then?

Ravecat October 7th, 2009 1:19 AM

Wasn't actually joking, he asked what could possibly happen. I informed.

BUT HEY OKAY GUYS INTERNET LOLOLOL

In order for it to be fake everything saying that it will happen would have to be untrue or not exist. Which is not the case. They are just things that can be widely interpreted. So, it's not fake. It's not true, but it's not fake.

I said it 1000 times earlier, and I will say it again.

STOP COMPARING Y2K WITH 2012 THEY HAVE NOTHING IN COMMON! Y2K WAS IN INTERNET RUMOR THAT HAD NO BASIS OF FACT BUT 2012 DOES!

I still don't believe in 2012 though. :/ I just don't make stupid comments about it.

That's a bit of an over-simplification. Y2K wasn't about the internet, it was about computers. The theory was that, since clocks on computers only counted in two digits (and would thus roll back over to 1900 at the turn of the century), there would be widespread computer failures that would royally screw over our economic system. That didn't happen thanks to the massive amount of preparation work done in anticipation of the event.

Chesu October 11th, 2009 10:10 AM

My sister believes in the 2012 apocalypse for some reason... Last March I bet her five hundred dollars that it wouldn't happen, and she accepted! I get a few hundred USD if the world doesn't end... I can't lose! Well, I can't lose money on the bet, anyway.

xoBoxxy October 11th, 2009 11:26 AM

I didn't say it was about the internet. I said it was an internet rumor, which means it was a rumor spread through the internet.

What?! Not another stupid 2012 thread!

People are getting paranoid about this. Heck, even Hollywood's getting into it with that stupid movie that's coming out, only adding to the paranoia machine.

How many times in the past has some wacko said that the world will end on this date and the date passes? The only reason this is gaining so much strength is because the Mayans and Nostradamus "predicted" it.

I would lol so hard if the world ended right when everybody realized they survived Dec.21,2012.

However, again, I don't care if the world ends now, or 1000 years from now. Going green, yes, peace, yes, watch the asteroids, yes, but if it happens, it happens. Live with no regrets. It's old, but if you do, it doesn't really matter when you go, does it?

molepeople27 October 26th, 2009 12:46 PM

Well given the fact that the A.D.E. calender is off about 17 years
Because when transcending the calender the years Caesar Augustus was never "officially" ruling weren't taken into account
2009 + 17 = 2026

so nothing happened, don't lose any sleep over it

♣Gawain♣ October 27th, 2009 5:57 PM

I don't beleive in such things. Like what happened in May 5, 2000. They said that the aligning of the planets can 'cause great disturbances in planet's revolution. But nothing happened. Same will happen in 2012, although different in prediction, but the outcome will be the same. Nothing.

AtomicoExploda October 28th, 2009 3:25 PM

Wow, this is like the fourth 2012 type thread I've seen. xD
Yes, I have my own beliefs about that date but I won't go into any detail since someone always ends up debating about it with me.

ProClifo October 31st, 2009 3:50 PM

This makes no sense...

The world's end has always been predicted by some psycho people. If the world is really gonna end, wouldn't it be all over the news every freaking day, just like how Fairytale by Alexander Rybakk is getting played all over Norway every freaking day?

If there's any reason why the world should end is because of the horrible enviroment on this planet.
But how I see it, predicters make up all the psycho reasons, anything but the f**king enviroment.
Like this time, it's about a calendar stopping in 2012. That is something screwed up bulls**t.

I think it's just some idiots who have spread a rumor. And when 2012 comes, everyone is gonna look stupid while a couple of people are laughing their ass out.

Ho-Oh November 15th, 2009 12:45 AM

Well since 2012 was released after the last post here, after seeing that movie, it's totally more belivable. Like yeah, if 2012 does happen... it'll be kinda how it happens in the movie imo. :(

Stronkadonk November 15th, 2009 4:56 AM

^ If anything like that starts happening, I'll take part in the Mass Suicide.

Y2K... 06/06/06... 2012... Really now? Are we all going with "3rd time's the charm! Teehee!" That's already two false predictions. Let's go out on a limb and rally for another apocalyptic possibility! I don't believe this trash, but if it turns out to be true... read first sentence...

The Darkest Gale November 15th, 2009 5:02 AM

I'm not sure my statement is true but wasn't the last two just some weirdos whilst this is scientists
anyway I don't beleive it only because I researched after this appeared anf well as you probably know there is the mayan calander which resets every 1000 years and 2012 is its reset
thats what I beleive and hope what true >_>

Zero_ November 15th, 2009 6:01 AM

I would like too see the end of the world sooner, because I want to rebuild it.
The thing about "2012 doomsday" Is a bunch of superstition. The only ones who could destroy the world is ourselves. (Unless a comet collides with earth or a lot of other unlikely stuff happens.)
(I am in character. I do not want the world to end. And I don't believe it will in 2012)

Charizard★ November 15th, 2009 6:07 AM

To the Mayans 2012 was supposed to be 2004 since our calender is 8 years behind or something like that.

SonicThrust November 15th, 2009 9:55 AM

I don't believe the world is going to end. I didn't believe the other theories and I don't believe this one. I don't know why people seem to set on having the world end.

If the Mayan calandar is aprox. 20,000 years old, wouldn't that mean the world is only 20,000 years old... correct?

Why yes, that would be correct.

But if that's the case, then what about those rocks that have been dated to over 2.5 Billion years old? LIke, this one?

And what about Dinosaurs? They're over 65 Million years old!

So, if the when the Mayan Calandar resets every 20,000 years old... then how come we still have those remains, huh? Huh? They're far older than 20,000 years!

For full details on the so-called Apocalypse and it's theories and controversies, go to NatGeo. And the link is in my sig.

Actually, after reading all the facts, I still don't believe in our demise.

Umm... no... the Mayan Calender is only 20,000 years old because that is when the Mayan civilization emerged, they didn't know how to date things, so they just started their calender then.

But the entire idea of the world ending because a calender freaking ends is ludicrous. If the Mayans were still about you know what they'd do in 2012? They'd start a new calender!

I thought the Myans were extinct. >_> Not the history expert.

I'm actually getting nervous, which is utter nonsense, I know.... =\

Captain Fabio November 17th, 2009 5:14 PM

There is a film about it.
It must be true...


I don't have any evidence to back up my opinion, but I think it is a load of rubbish.
Too many paranoid people living in their parents basements.

Syrex November 17th, 2009 5:18 PM

Meh...

I do not buy this at all.
just because it's already been dis-proven by a few Scientific Universities.
Read it on slashdot.

ReddishDegree November 18th, 2009 4:43 PM

I don't think this is true but after reading in the bible i found that there is a time when the world would end in a painful way this is called in the bible "Armageddon" tho i have no idea when

Tropical Sunlight November 19th, 2009 8:18 AM

lol I can't wait until it's not the end of the world! xD
Probably the day when they thought this up was April the 1st.

MidnightMoon November 19th, 2009 3:07 PM

We should be lucky to be alive in 2012 for what I know because scientist say that the sun will aline with the center of the milkyway galaxy and it only happens every 26,000 years. They also said the world was going to end in 2000 and of course it did not.

Diaruga222 November 20th, 2009 11:35 AM

It wont be any apocalypse.
ancient civilizations werent like present civilizations.
I think it would be nice if a meteor destroy my school ... ;/

SamuraiMaster November 21st, 2009 8:37 AM

December 12, 2012, you can find me on my roof in a lawn chair, smoking a nice cigar and drinking a fancy drink.

I believe the whole paranoia revolving the apocalypse is a big load. I'm a Christian, and I have full faith in the following verse;

"No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." - Matthew 24:36

Mankind cannot predict the world's apocalypse. They've tried many times before, and every single time they've been wrong.

I saw a documentary claiming Revelation wrote about the apocalypse.

Yes it does, but it never mentioned the date. So when December 12, 2012 finally comes, I'll see you all on the 13th.

I agree with you...!

Stupid people with their stupid believes that the end of this nice blue little planet will be on 2012..!

It's kinda similar to Nicolas Cage's movie about the end of the world, trying to figure out these numbers when the world will end and the choosen ones will be saved and live in a better planet ..!o_0

But anyway, who ever wants the world be crumbled up like in 2012?!
I don't! I like Earth how it is now..!Why to let GOD destroy earth?! I don't see why!!!

How old is the sun now?
How will it be when the sun will blow up?

If everything as a beginning, then it has an ending...!

How did Earth came in first place?
When the sun came, the earth came.
Now if the sun is blown up, then the earth will be blown with it...,right?

chikorita125 November 21st, 2009 6:45 PM

you now it could happen. i don't beleive it would happen but things like that could happen.

Pokeyomom November 21st, 2009 7:19 PM

The world will invetiably cease as we know it eventually- That's just a scientific fact. Stars have life spans, and our sun is no exception. It's colonize or bust for us. Luckily we may have alot of time; if we take care of eachother and the planet:)

Honest November 21st, 2009 7:28 PM

Wait, is the Date Dec. 12 or 21, 2012?

Cold Fusion November 22nd, 2009 5:26 AM

Well, I'll be seeing you the next day then after all I want my birthday to come up in the next seven days after! XD

To be honest we are humans, we can't predict everything just like with hurricanes we may know where some are but some every so often sneak up on us, it's nature we can't predict. The fact is in 2000 and 1999 (I think it was) the world was supposed to "end" but look where we are now, we are living still aren't we?

To me it is like saying that Pokemon are going to rain on us, which of course will not happen. I believe that it is just another one of those predictions that aren't going to happen and every is going to be all worked up about it for nothing. So just live now and make it the best, if it does happen, it does happen, we can't stop it.

Well I'm not scared, I'm living in the present and having the time of my life, not thinking about the future and what is going to happen to the Earth. Who ever made this one up probably is too paraniod.

Aksyel November 22nd, 2009 3:23 PM

This has probably been posted before, but I will say this anyway:

1. There will be no planetary alignment, like there is rumored to be.
2. The Earth and Sun will NOT align with the galactic center. It's an optical illusion only experienced from Earth and only Earth. In reality, we are about another 22 million years away from actually aligning. But if you base it off the illusion itself, the Sun has been rising in the same spot it will rise in 2012 as it is today, and all the years before today. Since like...1920 has this illusion been happening.
3. The Mayan calender wont end, it will restart.
4. The original date for destruction was in May 2003 but when nothing happened the cult who came up with the belief moved it up to 2012, coinciding with the "end" of the Mayan calender while stamping "miscalculation" as the cause of the wrong date.

Don't belief me? Google.

I am waiting for Sarah Palin to come on TV saying "We all need to build us some arcs! The world is ending!"

chikorita125 November 22nd, 2009 3:32 PM

don't let things like this go to your head, and even if it is gonna happen we have 3 years till it happens.

Goron November 22nd, 2009 3:34 PM

I think its all BS. If it does happen though i would feel mighty dumb :embarrass

SamuraiMaster November 22nd, 2009 9:34 PM

One more thing:

Everyone says the end is coming simply because the Mayan Calander is ending. Yeah it is....I have a calander that runs out every year. You simply go out and buy another one. Problem solved.

Ash~The Purifying Prince~ November 24th, 2009 10:23 PM

I've seen the 2012 movie, but just because there is a movie out doesn't exactly mean the world is going to end. It all depends on what it is people believe; Then again I wouldn't exactly put this prediction past them either, we're destroying the enviroment everyday just about so who knows. If the world ends, then it ends, there is not a whole lot anyone can do about it. Am I scared? honestly no, you shouldn't be scared of something that hasn't been purely and utterly 100% proven to be true.
All we can do is just wait and see what happens, but until then we shouldn't exactly be worrying about what the future holds. The world could end at any time, but really it's best to just focus on the here and now and not worry about the future; Since no one really knows what it is that's going to come to pass.

That movie is so farfetched it's not funny. Like, big chunks of land staying intact and floating in the water? What.

Really, it's all down to what you truly believe. If you believe the world is going to end in 2012, go get laid right now and do all the things you wanted to do before you died. If not, then join the club.

I don't think it's going to end. It's just a stupid date. There's been so many times someone predicted something would happen, but it never did.

Ageless Irony November 25th, 2009 11:57 AM

I like how everoyne in this thread agrees that it isn't the apocalypse, yet we're still arguing on "HOW" it isn't the apocalypse. i lol at this fact.

luls indeed, sergeant.

This sort of thing makes me sick. It's one thing to off yourself because you somehow think a fictional movie has something to do with reality; it's an entirely different matter to contemplate harming OTHERS because of it. People like this should not have the right to raise children.

Hawkfeesh November 25th, 2009 3:29 PM

No, I don't believe in it. :/

Idiot! November 27th, 2009 2:29 AM

So how do we avoid the apocalypse? Change the calendar. Use a different calendar. Don't use a calendar

Anyway, it won't be the end of the world if there is an apocalypse. It's just the end of mankind, so another species would continue to evolve to something more intelligent, just like the theory of the extinction of the dinosaurs
