There has been a lot of talk, and even a movie made, about the world coming to an end December 21, 2012. This date is the date the Mayan calendar ran out, so they think that a race of people who lived many years ago knew that this would be when the world ended. I have a calendar that runs out every year, yet the world doesn't end every 12 months. Maybe the Mayans are gonna be bringing out a new calendar in 2013. Hopefully it is a swimsuit edition this time.

With all the hype around 2012, it appears that we have overlooked the fact that the Rapture is occuring this Saturday. Yep, in two days time Jesus is going to return and take all the beleivers back to heaven with him, leaving the rest of us behind to deal with Armageddon.

Anyone got a big end of days party lined up for the weekend? Or do you think we are safe until 2012 or beyond? What do you think will cause the end of the world? Is it going to be an alien invasion, a massive comet or another ice age? Perhaps you think that the cows will rise against us and overthrow the humans as the superior race... perhaps not...

Well that's going to suck. I have Terry's 30th birthday all planned out with Hot Air Balloon ride and Tivo box as pressies. He's Christian so he'll be right but I am going to die before I give it all to him. He'll find the gifts when he finally comes to term with the grief enough and goes through my things to throw out and by then the hot air balloon voucher will probably have expired.

Damn being a non-believer right now.

you may be in luck. obviously god cant process all the new applicants on the same day, so there is a 7 year tribulation period where they assess who can and cant ascend to heaven.

The Mayans, who've never, ever got anything wrong before, ever, especially about predictions of mass extinctions of a human population, are saying it's in 2012.

So it can't be this weekend.

For starters, the Mayan calendar doesn't end in 2012. That will simply be the end of a b'ak'tun, or cycle, after which a new b'ak'tun will commence. This happens about every 400 years and I'm pretty sure the world hasn't ended every 400 years thus far!

When I was in Costa Maya in January, I bought a stone Mayan calendar to bring home. I then heard that it was going to end soon, so I was a bit pissed that I didn't get some kind of discount! After looking into it, though, I realised that although it will end soon, I won't actually need to buy another one as this one can just be used again! SCORE!!!

Yeah it's hilarious. I only just found out that part of it, I thought this was a widely held belief that had been in place for years.

That's the dumb thing about religion, too much is open to interpretation.

I had to lol at the fact that the Jehovah's Witnesses have predicted the end of the world no less than 8 times in the last 100 odd years (1914, 1915, 1918, 1920, 1925, 1941, 1975 and 1994). Great strike rate that! :lol:

Because over 40% of Americans actually believe in Bible prophecy.

That's not just believing in Jesus and all that horseshit, that's believing the Bible actually contains prophecy of the future and it will eventually come true.

yeah and that the world was created in 6 days and that its only about 6000 years old; 1000 years younger than when the Sumerians invented glue or 2000 years after the domestication of the dog.  :E

"There is a most absurd and audacious method of reasoning avowed by some bigots and enthusiasts, and through fear assented to by some wiser and better men; it is this. They argue against a fair discussion of popular prejudices, because, say they, tho' they would be found without any reasonable support, yet the discovery might be productive of the most dangerous consequences. Absurd and blasphemous notion."
