supposedly from what I have heard. The myan calender ends in the year 2012 in december. What I have heard that is when the world is supposed to come to an end. The Myans did not see past that year. Of course I really want to live a good life and let the end come when it comes. Why worry of things that may happen that you cannot change?
Were you looking for another answer?

The Mayan Calendar ends on dec 21, 2012. The Mayan calendar was actually a very limited calendar that only went to 3000-something BC. And we know that humans, specifically modern humans, existed well before then. I don't think anything will happen other than some cool astrologic alignments.

Every generation has it's doomsday theory. Check out the bible. It specifically names Armegeddon. And people took that to be an event...rather it was a place. So the event referenced in the Revelations, has already happened. And the Earth will go on for ages and ages. At least, as long as we don't kill eachother first. The outside forces aren't what we need to worry about....it's our own selves.

If only we could be sure the Mayans are correct.

Then, we might not have to shell out billions for those damned Olympics in London in 2012

Many believe it has to the do with the crystal skull legend.

There is an ancient legend that the Mayans had 13 crystal skulls and that when brought together have the power to project visions and influence cosmic and terrestrial forces. Some people even today believe those 13 skulls need to be reunited in order to save the planet in 2012.

By the way, this legend is what the new Indiana Jones movie is partially based on... That's why the called "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull."

It's a little know fact that at the bottom of the stone is a small hole with some printing around the edges. During the filming of Apocolypto, Director Mel Gibson saw the original stone tablet and since he already had Mayan translators on the set asked them to read the print. It said; "Aleta sobre"; which loosely translated means - "FLIP OVER".

For another 5000 that's all we have to do - well that and get a big tac and figure out a place to hang it up.

Wonder if the Democrats will have won a Presidential election by then?

Pre-Columbian prophecy in the Americas is some intriguing stuff. All we have are the barest of shreds, really. What has always fascinated me are the predictions that had their God/Gods due to arrive on exactly the day the Conquistadores rode into town. That happened more than once, if I recall correctly.

Perhaps the 12/21/12 date is significant somehow, but I wouldn't put a lot of faith in what they thought it would mean.

There are Mayan dates after 2012, using a modified version of the Long Count calendar, so it doesn't seem that even they believed the end of the cycle meant the end of the world.

On the other hand, by 2012 we might finally see the release of Chinese Democracy and Duke Nukem Forever... ah, nah, that's never gonna happen.

Chinese Democracy will come out when the Velvet Revolver guys realize that they are a shadow of what they were, and make nice with Axl, and G n R becomes what it was.

Or never.
