Alright, I am just sick of people getting afraid of the so- called "final year" 2012. First of all the year 2012 marks the end of the 13th Baktun Cycle for the mayan people. On Dec. 21, 2012, the current one will end and a new (#14) Baktun Cycle will begin.
The last time a Baktun Cycle ended was on Sep.18, 1618, now ask yourself this: did any catastrophic event happen in 1618?, nope.
Whenever we are going through bad times and such, people tend to say that the endtimes are comming, and thus look for reasons to make books so they can support themselves & their lifestyle, so they live off of people's fear.
You know what, right now I'm just gonna prove all of the other end of times lies wrong right now.
As for the so-called "bible code" goes, it predicts that an astroid will destroy the earth in 2012, well that same book (later made into a t.v. show) predicted the world would end on 2006, well here we are in 2008, no end times or nothing,
More recently, the author, Michael Drosnin has refrained from making concrete predictions, saying, "I don't think the code makes predictions. I think it reveals probabilities."
Now there are many websites telling people that in the bible it says that we are in the final times and so on. Well since I have seen all of this and read the book of revealation, I must say It is a good scare, but most likely untrue.
Most theologians (people that study the bible) say that the "beast" is used to describe Emperor Nero o for his persecuting of early christians , scholars have found that the number 666 is refered to Nero In Hebrew gematria, every letter has a corresponding number. Summing these numbers gives a numeric value to a word or name. The Greek spelling, “Neron Caesar,” transliterates into Hebrew as “נרון קסר” or “nrwn qsr”. Adding the corresponding values yields 666.
Aliens will come to visit and destroy us? hahahaha, please dont make me laugh with this one, most of the authors that have written ths are either high or just crazy. One guy, Riley Martin says that aliens will come and take us to a "better place" but in order to get there we MUST buy one of his symbols that the aliens have made for us.
What do we have here? Another load of lies, didn't the cult Heavens Gate say something similar back in the 90's? They ended up killing themselves to "get on the ship" that will take them somewhere else. Also, notice how you must BUY a symbol to get in the ship, on May 24, 2006 he called the Howard Stern Show DEMANDING more money and using foul and anti-semetic terms to describe Howard. The same thing happened on Jul. 31, 2006.
Remember me saying that these guys are probably high? On Jul. 17 2007, Riley revealed that he spent two and a half years in prison for having 611 pounds of marijuana in his pickup truck, among other charges. This guy was born in 1946, so durring the psychadelic drug movement he was probably in his 20's and that stuff he was smokin' on probably got to his head.
Many other ex-hippies take out book saying that in 2012 we will be visited by aliens called the "wazzlacops" or the "Teprillians" or something like that, dont you wonder what they are doing when they are writing the book?
Our next next topic that claims that all of these events happening now are leading to the apocalypse or the end of the world. Ok, I know that right now we are in pretty bad times, but we get through it, always have, always will, hurricane Katrina happened in 2005, and it could have gone WAY better if fema was prepared and on call.
Rising costs and recession? Nothing new, this thing we are experiencing now? It's happened:
January-July 1980 and July 1981-November 1982: 2 years
July 1990-March 1991: 8 months
(which ended with the election of a new president)
November 2001-November 2002: 12 months
The one in the 80's was the worst , and was it was due to high energy costs. Unenployment & more crime was the result of that. The same thing again happened in 2001-2002, and trust me, it will happen again. High food prices are a result of global warming, which if we start cutting our energy (which we are all starting to do) it wont kill us.
Now for Iran, N.Korea and WW3, you see many people have dubbed Iran's president as the anti-christ and so on. If Iran did form an alliance with Russia and China (highly unlikely) we would in turn form our own alliance of equal or greater size and supress their power.
This would lead to the so-called WW3, but if this did happen, just like in WW2 our country will start producing things like crazy, and we will get out of our current recession (WW2 took us out of the great depression and made us a superpower). We will eventually defeat whoever with better technology. And by the way most of China's economy depends on the west (exporting goods)
N.Korea? Well they are starting to disarm all of their nuclear production and become more public.
And eventually just like the dodo and leg-warmers, as the middle east gets better leaders, "holy war" or jihad will become a thing of the past and we will all work togther on various issues.
Planet X does not exisit, and something that is simmilar to Planet X is Pluto (the real planet X) or one of its moons. The planet Nibiru also does not exist as there is no scientific proof on it. Also the man who claimed that there was a Planet X (Robert Harrington) died without ever finding it.
Government conspiracy writers that say that a NWO (New World Order is being established by president bush and the royal family might convince you, but notheing more than lies. Either A.) They have no life B.) They lost their job C.) A teen or teens trying to scare everyone D.) Someone who is mad at the government.
Basicly thats all I have to say on this, and Remember:
"All we have to fear is fear itself"~FDR
