Is 2012 true?

[Aedes]

What do you think about 2012? Is it true? (not the movie) .. Because they say that Mayan Calendar is up to December 21, 2012 only. What will happen then? Could this be the end of the world? What do you think?

 

[Jackal]

Quite obviously not, unless a stone age civilization knew something we don't (which I doubt).

 

[DDRtists]

Think about it. Why would they need to make a calendar that long? Chances are, they probably went "Guys, we're not going to make it to that time, why bother with it?".

Obviously, Russia is going to use their space nuke to upset the moon's orbit. It will then fall on us.

>2012 is the year chuck norris will have a child

We are all Chuck Norris' children. Nothing will happen if he has another.

Did they expect the mayas to make an infinite calender then? They had to stop somewhere.:nuts:

...?

Because they say that Mayan Calendar is up to December 21, 2012 only.

December 21, 2012 is just the end of a major cycle in the Mayan calender. Not the end of the calendar. The only thing that happens is that they would add yet another "digit" to their complete date representation, kinda like we "did" from year 999 to 1000. They would probably get drunk and party a lot too.

 

[tooltiperror]

Oh no!

The Mayans got bored of Calender making!

 

[ReVolver]

Oh no!

or they got killed off that they never finished? Making a calender while fighting a battle is really hard.

It's not 2012, it's 2220. http://science.slashdot.org/story/09/10/26/1517242/2012-a-Miscalculation-Actual-Calendar-Ends-2220

[Cornface]

Of course, why wouldn't it end? It has to end some day. The Mayans decided it will end 2012, and the will of the mayans is, well, the will of the mayans. IT WILL END 2012.

No, but seriously? Why the hell would the world end just because the mayans couldn't bother with an unnessacary uber big calendar. It's just dumb. I do want to see the movie tho

 

[Aedes]

What's with the Mayans anyway? Who are these people? Are they special? So, what if there calendar is up to 2012? .. You're right, I think they just run out of stone to carve their calendar. Hahaha!
