Author Topic: do you believe the world will end this year?  (Read 3253 times)


it won't end but I wish it would

The people who usually believe these things are often overweight, slightly bonkers, and live such desperately un-fulfilling lives they have nothing else to do but hope for a fantasy like that to come true. Thats what I've noticed anyway.

Would be surprised if anyone in this topic says they do believe it lol.

There's an easy way to make the world end for yourself.

Not if you do it calmly. Or doctor-assisted. That gives him half a point.

"This long-count calendar isn't a calendar as much as a counting system. You know how we use a base-10 counting system? (10, 100, 1000, 10,000 etc.) The Mayans used a modifed base-20 counting system for keeping track of days - the second cycle went up to 18 rather than 20. So they tracked days in cycles of 20, 360, 7200, 144000, 2880000, etc.

We're coming to the end of one of the 144,000 day cycles. The concept of leap-years is irrelevant to this calendar system, because it's not based on solar years, simply on pure math. I've got no opinion of whether the calculated date of Dec 12, 2012 as the end of the cycle is accurate. But if it is inaccurate, it's for reasons that have nothing to do with leap years."

The Mayan calendar is actually incredibly accurate. The somewhat significant but ultimately unimportant transition from the 13th to the 14th Baktun in the Mayan calendar just happens to fall on an arbitrary date of December 21, 2012 on the Gregorian calendar.

People that claim the Mayan calendar "ends" on that date are just plain ignorant. The longest period of time in the long count calendar, called an "Alautun" tracks lengths of 63 million years.

Uh what. Its been revealed the calendar has a significant margin of error with our current date system and that  whatever date that has been predicted may have already happened or may not happen for longer yet.

What a whiner. You tell a guy to kill himself and he acts like this.

Have fun dealing with those people after nothing happens.
