Im so tired of reading and hearing about 2012 and the predictions about the end of the world. Im tired because the whole subject has become addictive. Some say the world will end and others believe we will ascend spiritually and become more enlightened beings

Right now i have 3 children of young ages. Im ok im ex military, Hot on my survival skills and reasonbly fit. My partner also a fitness fanatic and probably
quite able to look after herself. Yet today i have pondered where, How, When
and what will i prepare for 2012? Should i prepare anything? Is there a genuine
reason to worry? Do me and my partner need to prepare ourselves, children, family etc for biblical events in 2012? How will i ensure my children dont suffer?

Where will you be on 21st December 2012? Ok most people probaly give it the
"Ill be at work, its just a normal day" or something like that. But is it?

Whether this whole 2012 thing is true or not i imagine a lot of people around the world (Me included) will on this day surround themselves by loved ones, stay at
home. Can you imagine the sense of relief on the 22nd December 2012 if we are all still here.

Will this "Relief" be the only change after this date. Will this be the kickstart that makes people realise the importance of peace, love and happiness.

I need to know as i imagine do many. Is this whole 2012 thing something that has got out of control? Ive read that it is akin to a Viral scare story fed by the web. I have also read that different cultures have predicted the same events. I have seen no official person address this issue and dismiss it. Why not? But then again i have seen no official person tell us to worry about it either.

Yes if its going to happen there aint much i can do about it but it should would be good to know how many other people out there are taking this seriously enough that they have pondered their actions leading up to this date. How many of you will be at home like a shivering wreck on that day

I saw your name on the recent posts board as answered to my thread. I kind of expected something uplifting and warming from someone with a name like that and i got what i expected when i opened the post

people smart enough to do research into it will go about there day because they know nothing will happen.

unfortunately irrational outnumbers the rational. i am going to be prepared for the worst. i expect there to be panicked mobs, rioting, looting, and i also believe that there will be mass suicides by cults going to "meet" their gods.

as we get closer to the date i assume that news stations will start picking up on the 2012 story and will be broadcasting "facts" about it. this will just lead normal everyday citizens in to a panic. hopefully nothing of this sort will happen.

Most if not all of the worlds religions speak of an end time. 2012 I dont know, but we do seem on the verge of something. The common connection seems to speak of something coming from space and the idea that there are others who visit this world.

The source for this is as unreliable as it gets. My watch shows 2030 as the end of the world, and manufacturer still exists, unlike Mayans - so they appear to know better how to make predictions. Beware of 2030 .
On general note - i do not fear that Mayans got the date right. It is impossible. What i am afraid of is self-fulfilling prophecy thingy. There might be crazy people doing crazy stuff to prove that they were right all along. But it will not be dangerous enough for running to the hills. Actually i worry more about thins and next year due to winds of war starting to blow over me.

Planets in our solar system are heating up. This is fact and some are saying it's because we are going through the galaxies center. This would have happened in the past and maybe they just used oral tradition or story telling to pass the information down from generation to generation. No one really knows what will happen when we reach the center and pass through it. I expect temperatures to rise a bit more and it might effect the sun. It's a wait and see situation for us all.

It's something we have no control over. It would not be a bad idea to have an underground safe room just in case something goes wrong. Store food and water. Have a plan.

I suppose 2012 will be what we make of it. Our reaction to an event may be more eventful than the event itself - which may or may not be the intended purpose.

Just keep in mind that:

The Maya
The Hopi
I-Ching
Timewave Zero
Edgar Cayce
Nostradamus

All predict that something will happen. Whether you put any stock into it depends on you.

Peace

I'll toss my two cents in - this is how I tend to look at the entire 2012 issue, given my human brain limit.

"2012" isn't mentioned in the Bible - not the actual word, that is. But the effects OF 2012 most certainly are.

List down all of the coming prophecies that deal with natural events, as well as manmade events, then at the very top, give the list a title - called "Coming Prophetical Events".

On my list, 2012 is there right a long with the rest of the soon coming events.

2012, as the scientists are now saying, will bring intense solar storms, increased earthquakes, tornadoes, tsunamis, floods, and all other natural events.

Now - flip open the Bible, and read Daniel and Revelation - these two books in the Bible discuss these very same events, in detail, that are coming to this planet.

Plus, the Bible also mentions increased behavior of mankind such as jealousy, evil, non belief, murder, theft, pride, blasphemy, etc.

It shouldn't take a rocket scientists to see that everything that is now occurring on the planet is now aligning up, exactly, with biblical prophecy.

The Bible speaks of the last days as like it was during the days of Noah, and Lot. Meaning, mankind was carefree, drinking/marrying, carrying on their every day activities, mocking others for believing in Jesus, and thinking they haven't a care in the world. Remember in Noah's day, God told him to start building the Ark - and the people around the town laughed at him and mocked him - b/c there was no flood, it wasn't raining, and they weren't heeding God's warning.

And then boom.

As far as protection - if a person is saved, and baptized, and has accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, you won't have to worry - if you are still on the planet, you, being a believing child of God, will have God's hand of protection upon you. I.e. if the crap is hitting the fan all around you, nothing will touch the hairs of your head. God protects His children - as long as they have accepted His son as their Savior.

I'm torn on the Rapture, but leaning on it being that Christians will be 'snatched up' before the seven year tribulation - if that's the case, and you have received Jesus as your Savior then you won't even be here. God will also protect His small children and infants as they are not accountable for their sins, if they even have any.

If the Rapture isn't true, then you will still be protected no matter what is going on around you.

So bottom line, if you are right with God, either way, whether there is a Rapture or not, you will have God's hand over you for protection.

The people that are standing around mocking and laughing? Well, they will be in the direct line of 'fire' per say. That is what the 'final days' and "Armageddon" are all about - God is ridding His earth of all evil.

Faith, my friend, faith - that is stressed over and over, and over and over, in the Bible. Make sure you have things right with Jesus in your soul, as well as your wife - and yall both stay in God's Word i.e. reading His Bible daily - and pray for His protection, as well as guidance. And you'll be alright.

I've posted this experiment before but I'll post it here -

If you want to prove that the pole shift is real, and that we are experiencing it now, this is a cheap easy way to prove that the earth's rotation is indeed slowing:

Get yourself a clock that isn't synch'd automatically. Place it somewhere close to your computer monitor so you can see both times.
I bought a five dollar brand new wall clock at Big Lots.

Your pc clock IS world clock synch'd remember.

Within the first week, you will notice a minute or so difference in the times. The non synch'd clock will appear to be running behind your computer clock time.

I did this for about 7 months - and the difference in minutes got up to around 8 full minutes.

I would still be gauging it except my clock fell off the wall during the night and the battery popped out so I'll have to restart the experiment.

And yet the major mainstream religions of Christianity, Buddhism and Islam strangely have nothing whatsoever to say about a "2012 doomsday scenario" ... the only mention comes from self-proclaimed fortune tellers, mystics, fringe science or defunct civilizations

Honestly, I'm not sure that anything perceptible will happen on December 21, 2012. I have pretty much come to the conclusion that the change will be in the energy and spiritual levels. As far as some dramatic "End of days" type scenario, phooey.

I just don't see it happening. Now, it is a real possibility that between now and the 2012 date there could be a large chunk of the human population taken out. I mean, look at the current world situation. Something is about to arupt before 2012 ever gets here.
