In the holiday spirit of this thread, here's a good one:

Questions:

1. What about the three days of darkness that some allege will happen on December 21? Where did that idea come from? Is there any truth in it?

2. When did this Mayan Calendar start? And at the start of it, is there any evidence that any global cataclysm happened?

If we're all still here on Saturday, I declare 2013 as the "Year of Still Here"!

Well it's already December 21 here in Asia. So if the world ends today, then I want to say: It was nice knowing you all! lol

Btw, does the Mayan Calendar really say that the end date is December 21, 2012? Isn't that just based on one tablet rather than the calendar itself? The calendar didn't contain exact dates right?

Besides, why did this date only become an issue in the last 10 years? How come it wasn't mentioned before that? I think it was said that the Mayan Calendar ended in 2003. When there was no doomsday then, it was moved to 2012. Is that so? Why do many people have a psychological need to believe in doomsday apocalyptic prophecies? What's the appeal of them?

I remember in 1985, the kids at my school were saying that Nostradamus predicted a nuclear war in 1986. That sounded scary back then. But it didn't happen.

NASA claims that the poles shifting to the point of the Earth rotating is impossible. However, how do they explain all those woolly mammoth carcasses found in Antarctica with warm weather vegetation in their stomachs? Supposedly, this is proof that the Earth rotated in the past, and that Antarctica was once somewhere else when it wasn't covered by snow. Is that a hoax too?

Check out this amazing film about the awakening that is occurring after December 21, 2012, and why the Illuminati and their media are trying to stop it and spread fear instead. It contains a lot of great wisdom and wonderful spiritual revelations from many researchers and figures throughout history. Very inspiring and awakening.
