    There is a "prediction" and "calendar" for just about every single day or every single year. This Mayan prediction is absolutely no different to any other of the so-called predictions by ignorant or fruity people.

    I prefer to think that whatever is coming is going to be completely man made due to greed and nothing else. The economy is stuffed, resources are running out, personally I reckon the civil unrest was only a taste of whats to come, unless we kick start the global economy.

    Its the end of a mayan long count calender. Ive read some books that touched on the subject.
    Now.... if memory serves me right its a very long period of time called a "Baktun"? something like 25000-35000 years.
    I think it refers to the end of a baktun (era) as opposed to the end of the world.
    I may well be mistaken but I seem to remember something along these lines.
    The date is also the first day of the age of Aquarius. We are comming to the end of the age of Pisces.
    Of course if it IS the end of the world then there is no way you could prepare for it anyway

    Sorry it was never supposed to be a battle of the wits but if it was you failed as soon as you created a topic asking if it was going to be end of the world on 21st December

    Fish, I don't know about what may happen, But having extra food and beer in for your birthday sounds good,

    Indeed!

    Stocking up for a good Birthday celebration and time with Family etc makes much more sense then worrying about silly misinterpreted/naive predictions that are simply not going to happen. If you don't believe me then we can have this conversation on the 22nd

    Hasn't there already been a few dates predicting the end of the world come and go in the last few years.
    I'm sure I remember one date being from quite a name in history. Can't remember who though.
