Besides the Mayan, who else predicted the end of the world in 2012?

Ive heard that there are many other prophecy's also saying the world will end in December 2012.
I would like to know as much as i can so please help.
Thank you

2012 is the year in which the Mayan calendar comes to an end, and they predicted a great change, certain tribes of American Indians believed that this year would be a year of 'great purification' and the old world would disappear to herald the emergence of the next, the Chinese divining system I Ching has predicted that the world would end in 2012, and Nostradamus supposedly made references to it; allegedly the Bible and Koran have also referenced the end of the world around this time. It has been said that NASA is predicting changes as well. there are others, not as well documented, who have made dire predictions for the time we are in now.

The Maya didn't predict the end of the world or anything of the sort.

The winter solstice 2012 simple represents the end of the long count, which incidentally will mark the THIRD time since the long count began that it has reset to zero.

You have to remember that to the Maya, indeed to most ancient civilizations, time was not linear like we imagine it today but cyclical, it's not a beginning to and end but rather a continuous cycle which simply starts again at the winter solstice 2012.

The "prophesy" surrounding 2012 is a MODERN attempt to superimpose Christian or other current ideologies over ancient ones that are radically different in actuality. This is a common practice since our modern world view differs that much from that of older cultures that we simply can't understand them without interpreting them through our current thinking.

Problem is, the Mayan DID NOT predict the world to end in 2012.

If anything, they predicted some transformation or some good stuff to happen.

But in reality, their calendar simply ends in 2012 – or begins again. That's it, nothing spooky or interesting at all.

But who else thinks the world will end in 2012?

Just check this out:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_Doomsday_prediction

Also: do a web search of "Novelty Theory" it's quite fascinating and it relates to 2012.

The correct prophecy linked with that special year, in full is, *The end of the World as We Know It*, NOT the end of the world..

The world we know keeps us in fear and uncertainty, lack and limitation, and now Swine Flu!..do you WANT that to continue as it is?

Well we are already experiencing the beginning of world changes which will totally transform that situation for the better as we head towards 2012..

This old, dark and corrupt system of society has begun to implode, as it must, and that is the reason for this current *downturn*, which will finally bring the death knell for that group of individuals and families known as the Illuminati, who have been at the heart of this whole cruel reign over us, with even governments doing their bidding, like starting wars, creating 9.11 and even purposely spreading dangerous viruses, including the current one, which like SARS and AVIAN BIRD FLU will come to nothing as the virus has already been neutralized by those who, unseen, protect us from our skies!.>there will be NO pandemic!

The changes now beginning to affect us, our world, our weather and even time itself, which is speeding by ever faster, are signalling the fact that we are moving from 3D to 5D by 2012, our planet also, and in 5D only Love and peace exists!..So it*s important now to work on letting our fears go, which is exactly why those who reign over us and wish to retain that power are doing all in their power to spread fear, which is the OPPOSITE of and blocks Love..

Soon there will be revelations which will shock and anger people about what has REALLY been going on in the corridors of power, and it will then be only too clear why only total change can bring the conditions of peace and abundance which almost all of us yearn for..

As another answerer has said, in 5D we experience time as a non-linear NOW continuous cycle, rather than the current past, present and future, so time is now speeding up prior to it*s *disappearing* as our consciousness level continues to rise..

Fascinating times ahead!..Hang onto your hats!l..A new banking system GREATLY beneficial for us, the masses is ready to come in once this old corrupt systme finally disappears..

the mayans didnt predict the world would end then they predicted that there would be a dramatic change in the way of life. the way the economy is looking the change might be pretty good or pretty bad. merlin also predicted something about the end being near 2012 but merlin is most likely to be the title of many people and not just one man from what i read

There's the story of a Catholic saint who went into a trance on his way to Rome. He named every pope there had been and will be. According to him, we're on our 2nd to last pope.

There's also a calendar in one of the great pyramids of Egypt that ends around 2020 or 2025, I think. I believe there is some confusion about the exact time represented on the calendar, so it's possible it could refer to 2012, as well.

You know, maybe the Mayan guy who made calendars didn't want to make them anymore? Did you ever think of that? So then they needed a reason why they quit making them and made one up, people make up reasons why they quit all the time. Then it was like a chain reaction, people started believing it and "predicting it". Sounds pretty logical no?

The I-Ching also matches up to the Myan calendar.

But both systems do not say it is the end of the world. It is the end of the known world.

Ancient Egyptians also predicted the same thing.
Nostradamus predicted that something will gonna happen like earth quakes, volcanic eruptions, floods n diseases.
Albert Einstein also said many things about this date

Plenty of people predicted the world would end in 2012 after the Mayans had already predicted it would end.

Here is everything about it. I wrote it!
http://ivers4.wordpress.com/2008/07/30/2…

Hopi, Cherokee, Celts, Babylonians, Sumerians, Egyptians, Israelite prophets, and even the Chinese I-Ching.

Nostradamus predicted it as well, also Merlin (a tittle of a wise man not the Disney wizard) and a computer program.

The Mayans just got tired of counting up the calander. So they're just like lets end it on 2012. Everyone is making this a bigger deal than it actully is.

the american people on november 20 2008 (i'm bad i didnt mean to bring politics into this)

Besides the Mayan, who else predicted the end of the world in 2012?

2012 end of the world…….?

is it real????

like i know there were other dates where the world was meant to end.. (1975 or something?)…. but was there 'evidence' and other supporting things regarding these older end of the world dates???

because the 21 dec 2012 end of the world date has had a lot of attention and evidence etc. has been used (religious stuff, crystal skulls) to back up the theory

EVERYONE ABOUT THE MAYANS!!! DO RESEARCH!! LOL. no really there are many more than that who believed the same. it was suggested by Einstein. Studies from Princeton University have shown that the poles have shifted in the earths past. Did you know 800,000,000 years ago Alaska was on the equator? Confucius who wrote the I CHING or "the Book Of Changes" calculated by Terrence Mckenna the hexagrams decoded shown to end on Dec 21 2012. Merlin who was "historically" the ancient English oracle also used 2012 as an end date. And there was Mother Shepton ,who lived in Yorkshire in the 1500 (who make be fake/hoax like 2012), also said 2012.the Hopi Indians believe that this has already happened four times. Sybl at Delphi, who of the most famous of oracles, said the would end on 2012 while she was in a trance from the ephors.

there have been many mane more people than these who have said the same thing. It's really up to you what you want to believe. But in all actuality the only way to know is to "pass the time"

This is how I regard it all.
All of the prophecies had to be DECIPHERED. I do not see the end of the world. what I see is the end of one thing and the start of another. This thing we will lose I believe will be our rights and freedoms. we are slowly losing our freedoms, the Patriot Act. over in England, cameras are everywhere. there is also the rdif chip. Google it, you will see what I am getting at. 2012 is also being referred to the rebirth of the planet and a higher state of consciousness. that could mean only through losing our rights and freedoms will we truly realize what has been going on under our noses for the last 25 years or we finally stand our ground, as a people and not let this happen. our future is in our own hands. to all non believers, enjoy your freedom now while you can.

I heard this on a forum:

“After 12-21-2012 we [will] fully enter the age of Aqarius with no more influence from Pisces like we have know. Then the old portals to the other side will be open again. the Abrihamic religions will die out. than the Fey (mythologic beings such as elves, fairies, dragons) will return to Earth.”

So, not a world ending experience, but a world CHANGING experience.

The Myan calander predicts the end of an age, not the end of the world

Stop worrying about it. the mayans predicted that the world will end in 2000 also, and look, we are kinda still here!
Dont go off woryying and thinking that you can sell your house earlier because you think the world will end, and we will all die!, because people have done that, and now they are really poor!

you know nothing if your going to ask this dumb %^& question you would think you would have tried to look in to it a little. but no the world is not going to end because someone found a crystal skull in a cave that has nothing to do with the Mayan calender

i don't think it's real
i think the world will end when the sun explodes and that is very far off and i dont think human kind will even alst that long
so don't worry about it
besides its just the same scheme as the others exept adding that calender
and how are any of us supposed to know for sure yet? we arn't phycic

they say its gonna end because that's when the Mayans stopped their calendar.

But that's probably because they got too lazy to keep going.

and honestly, you believe in crystal skulls? . . .. .. . . . . . . . . . . ,.-‘”. . . . . . . . . .“~.,

The date that the mayans predicted does not mean the end of the world. With research, you would learn that they were predicting the end of this celestial era, at which point a new one would begin. so it doesn't mean the end of time period. it is meaning the end of a time period.

They've always had theories about the end of the world. Haven't you ever heard the one about the new century? Supposedly, the world was going to end in 2000, and all the computers end the world would shut down and poof. But all the computers are still good and we're still here. They've been assuming that since forever. Honestly, I am a christian, and I believe that only God knows. If he wants to, he can send Jesus back in 2012, but it's not up to us to assume it.

No
For years scientists have been researching these things and trying to prove "the end of the world"
Like for example…in year 2000, Y2K. that did not happen, since nothing happened. Even though they proved it will happen. I did not see technology going against humans yet…
This is just my opinion though,

its not going to end when the world ends everyone now will be dead because we'll either kill ourselves by our actions or the sun will die out or die out and thats like billions of years and we'll find out 8 minutes before because it takes 8 minutes for sunlight to travel over here and so we'll die in 8 min.

You may want to look into the Mayan prediction of 2012. They Mayans have been known to be correct about other predictions. Their calendar stated that the year the world would end would be that year. I personally think life's to short to worry but it may be worth looking into.

i agree with shelbi, that's exactly what i think. If the mayans were the civilization that disappeared suddenly, and that still remains a mystery. Don't you suppose that mayans disapperead and the calendar was left at that. And that's another thing. the **** that's predicted to happened has been brought up over and over again several times. the most recent Y2k…. but anyways. i just still hope they are wrong. i still have too much to live for.

myth, the only thing is going to happen is a basic alien invasion, that's it, mayan's calender says it because they have seen aliens before and therefore they are aware of the date that the invasion will happen, just a theory ;)

Oh yeah, the freakin Mayans entire civilization vanished, but I am going to blindly follow the date they claimed was the end.

Cause that's real logical.

well hopefully Obama will be out of the white house by then so i think the world will be reborn and a good president will be elected that will actually DO something

no evidence, only because the Aztecs(or something like that) calendar Finnish on 2012 doesn't mean it will

scientists say its fake because the people actually did not have any scientific evidence to provide with their claims…..but no one will really know until that day comes…

Yeah maybe except for Japan. Japan has too much technology to be wiped out. JAPANESE POWER!!!!!

lol people just think that because the Mayans were the people to assume the end of the world would be in 2012 :P

I am 99.999999999% sure that the world will not end on 21 December, 2012.

brooke doesnt no anything she llook dumb the mayans predicted alot of things that happend and were completly right so u never no i hope they are wrong but for the past years they have been right

Hmmm Im not sure..
But I do know we are like fleas to earth and there will be a moment when it will shake up off, probably freeze us before lol

2012 end of the world…….?
