They also never thought to use the wheel as tool for transport and that the only way to make the sun circle the earth was by human sacrificeSpireOfFire said:no. its not true. the doomsayers were wrong in 1984, '93, '99, '03, '06, and they're gonna be wrong in 2012.
its all just fear mongering.
EDIT: also, why are we getting future telling tips from a dumbass civilization that was too stupid to predict their own demise? you think they can predict our future and not theirs?
Why yes, yes it is. Next year is going to be 2012. In fact, I predict it's going to be 2012 for a whole year, starting the next January 1st at 00:00!Poll said:IS 2012 BECOMING TRUE??
Actually the world is supposed end sometime in May this year as well, so HA HA 2012ers!banthesun said:I think people are being a little harsh on this 2012 thing. I mean, sure, even the Mayans weren't saying the world is going to end then, but why should that stop me from having a big end of the world party? As a bonus, if the Mayans turn up and say "hey, who are we to decide what our culture is? Lets end end the world so those people who predicted it don't look like idiots" then I'll be partying with my friends up until the last moment. Win/Win situation.
Events like this only come round every 8-12 years or so, so make the most of it!
no its in 2112 and the Mayan Calander has ended before, they would just make a new one when that happend.Custard_Angel said:There is nothing significant about 2012.
It's a year when a Mayan calendar expired.
It's more a matter of thinking that the world will end on December 31 every year, since that's when our calendar ends.Mad Hamish said:Mayan Calendar Maker A: Well we've used up all the space on this piece of stone. How far does it go to?
Mayan Calendar Maker B: 2012
Mayan Calendar Maker A: Ah, well we've got plenty of time to add more years. Let's go have some chocolate.
