  • I don't think the world will end either, but I do believe that small crimes will definitely be on the rise.

    For me I think everyone will do the same that they did for Y2K, stock up on supplies hide in their bunkers just to find out that nothing is happened. I think the world will end not in a single day. First I am a Christian and beleve Jesus will rapture all his belivers and then appear again in 7 yrs. Read the book of Revelaions in the bible, it will tell you how the world will end

    12/21/12 Unless you believe the people who say the Mayan calendar was interpretted inaccurately and the true day has come and gone.

    The calendar actually ended many months ago. They didn't take into account the needed leap year days.

    This one chick and extended family is going o a cabin way up in the mountains "just in case"

    really? some people are just being ridiculous!

    Lots of people are making plans. Some are going to parties, some are going into hiding, and the rest of us will go on with our daily lives. I was just wondering if the rest of you think there will be riots and pandemonium.

    Actually, the experts have changed their minds, the Maya Calender only goes to a new period on the 21st...it doesn't end.

    I took the day off just in case. I'm impartial, don't really mind if it ends or doesn't.

    Actually the Mayans never predicted the world was going to end. The Mayans predicted the alignment of the Earth with the Sun and the center of our galaxy, the black hole. They talked about it as being a time of enlightenment.

    Actually, no. Leap years were invented by Pope Gregory in order to keep his calendar in sync with the seasons. Period. The Maya didn't track seasons, so there was no need for leap years in their calendar.

    Thank God, someone who actually does research instead of quoting facebook Meme's.
