This was not the prediction of Nostradamus, it is the year that the Mayan calendar ends, which many people take to mean that it is when the world also ends.
I personally don't believe that we know the time or date that the world will end and therefore do not believe that it will necessarily end in 2012.
the incans predicted 2012, and the wy things are going they may be right…
i think you mean thats what ppl think the mayan calendar is predicting… no, i dont believe it is true… no one knows but GOD… its just another attempt of satan…. JESUS doesnt even know when the end will come.
the Mayan calender end there and the American Indians also have a prediction that the world will change at that time and things will be very different, all the people will be thrown to gather.
Out of 109 he was proven wrong 104 times.
I don't like his record.
There are always many questions
"when will the world end"
"Is there a god"
"yadayada!"
But one thing is for sure, if you spend your life worrying about "what if" then your life has been wasted.
What if i wake up tomorrow morning and a meteor is about to hit the earth….
What if I go out for lunch and my card is declined…
If we all lived on what ifs we would be agrophobic, paranoid, cave dwellers.
The fact is, the universe is expanding, like a huge nuclear blast… Eventually the universe will collapse back on its self, but considering it is still growing and still in the Bang stage, you and your next 3000 year generations have nowt to worry about…
all the best
No it wasn't.
It was also widely publicized that 2000 was the end and 1900 and 2004 and 2006.
The significance of the year 2012 is that the Mayan calender ends on December 22, 2012. as the Mayans were incredibly advanced at tracking the heavens (and thus the months) many have decided that since they stopped the calendar in 2012 the end of the world must be coming.
And no matter how many times the name Nostradamus is thrown out their is somebody who says he predicted things that are happening now.
He was just a fortune teller and political activist who had a knack for making vague "predictions" that can be interpreted multiple ways. In reality he was so vague and wrote in prose because had he stated his true political opinions he would have been killed in a heartbeat.
The Mayans predicted the end of the world in 2012; Nostradamus predicted the end of the world in Sept. 1999. Just between you and I; I think that he was wrong. What's your guess?
Only God himself knows when and how the world will end. I can not remember the verse in the bible, but is says Jesus will come back like a thief in the night when everybody least expects it. so no one knows when it will happen.
This prediction goes back alot farther then Nostradamus. it is from the Mayan peoples, it is written in a dot to dot like script on stone. it is just like the same system as our computers use today. It was predicted that the 5th sun will burn out on Dec. 23, 2007. Which we are in the 5th sun now.
go to this website and get your answers to this question and then you can decide for yourself if you think it is true or not.
If it happens, we are powerless to do anything about it. If it is untrue, we have nothing to worry about.
Nostradamus was a quack. People who believe in him use nothing more than cognitive biases.
I think you've been reading too much conspiracy theory propaganda? Nostradamus never predicted the end of the world, and in fact most of his "predictions" have been mistranslated, misquoted, and simply fantasized in order to retroactively fit into major modern-day events. and that's besides the fact that all of his "prophecies" are so vague and general that they could fit in to any event that one could apply a little imagination to.
Nostradamus never predicted end of the world in 2012. according to Nostradamus world war 3 was expected around 1998~1999. everything in the cosmic world results from the residual balance of karma. as the residual balance of karma of total humanity in 1998~1999 did not warrant start of world war 3… It did not happen!
The occurrence of world war 3 would not be a chance happening. All would be the result of mass karma of 6500 million people world over. The world war 3 did not occur in 1998~1999 as the masses aware of the outcome of a nuclear world war started praying with the hope that God Almighty indefinitely delay world war 3.
In 2003, the expectation of world war 3 rose but things again fizzled out! In the present… the karma of the present community dictates the coming of world war 3 around 2012! beyond 2014 is the golden era… a new beginning altogether! Between 2012 and 2014 the community would witness the fiercest nuclear war ever fought on Mother Earth.
We are presently passing through the Kali Yuga phase of life (the darkest hour of the night) when adharma (lawlessness) is at its peak. Bogged by wanton desires and dominated by the ego within most human beings engross themselves in materialistic pursuits of life. with no reprieve in sight, Human values take a back seat!
The means have become an end in itself. might is right is the order of the day. In such circumstances it is only an Avatar of the era (God manifest in human form) who re-establishes Dharma (righteousness)! Bhagwan Kalki… an Avatar of the Kali Yuga is awaited with abated breath… a one-man army who shall single-handedly bring about a phenomenal change!
The year 2012 shall be remembered in the history of mankind forever. Annihilation of 1200 million people… a fight to the finish between Christianity and Islam Dharma… almost 20% population of the world wiped out… the humanity would have learnt it lessons! Spirituality again would come to fore… materialistic tendencies getting wiped out altogether! More on 2012 End of the World – http://www.godrealized.com/2012.html
when we can no longer answer your questions then we will worry let the world change okay I donot believe mankind will become extinct. science will figure out something believe in your humankind
^It was the Mayans and I'll let you know the day after, I think I have a hair appointment that day.
i'll believe that when my sh*t turns purple and smells like rainbow sherbert. funny how people claim nostradomus 'correctly' predicted things AFTER the prediction happened.
I don't have time to worry about things like that. If it's gonna happen, so be it.
There have been countless predictions about when the world is going to end and none of them have proven true yet. The main difference is, human beings now have the power to destroy the world themselves. The way things are going, 2012 does not seem too absurd, someone just has to screw up enough to make it happen. I suppose that eventually, someone's prediction will be right but nobody is going to be around to say I told you so!
Soooo many times has the world been predicted to end. unless we do something really really stupid (which may well happen) it isn't going to end for at least a few more centuries.
Read your Bible. Book of Revelations outlines everything. No one knows the time.
No Man knows the day nor the hour.
The current fad is the Mayan calendar "end of the world" fad. there will be those backers of that fad because they have been able to use it to post many questions and answers, that will get very mean to you. trying to supplant the going Mayan with Nostradamus is just not feasible. Especially since he did not do the deed.
But good luck if that's your thingy.
no the world ends when you die and that's it!
Nostadamus didn't actually predict that.
After you get older, and 2012 passes on by, you'll find people telling you that he predicted 2020 or some other number. I've seen the story change several times now, from 92, 96, 98, 2000, 2004, etc.
If you are particularly interested in Nostradamus find some of his original writings. I once read a book that had his original text, followed by a direct translation, and then the modern interpretation of the direct translation. although this book was written to support the idea that he predicted our future, the difference between the direct translation and the interpretation was striking. In other words, people take great liberties when translating and interpreting his work. Don't believe for a minute that he predicted anything at all that has come true. He hasn't. from WW2 to 9/11, from assassinations and economic depressions, his actual words did not predict these events at all.
The Mayan calendar does start over in the year 2012. many people see this as the end of the world as their calendar "ends" in that year. but this is due to people not understanding that the Mayan calendar is circular. Just as Saturday is the end of the week on our calendar, this is not the end of the world but instead is followed by Sunday — the start of a new week. The Mayan calendar works the same way, the years on their calendar will start over again in 2012.
Nostradamus predicted like 1998 or 2000. The ancient Mayans predicted 2012.
No, he never predicted that. Source please.
