After it passes by harmlessly.

Would that change your personal belief about 2012?
Would you then see that 2012 is 100% BS,
or will you stay stubborn and continue to believe 2012 is the end (or something Major will happen)?

Or would you throw middle school science out the window and post about a random big quake (that happened shortly before or after the comet pass) and claim that it was caused by this comet?

Or will you people find another comet and find a random "secret" meaning for another scientists name?

(For the record I have a Science degree and I just wanted to post this because you sir/madam, are being an ass).



I like how you say you have a "science degree" without being specific. A Science Degree in what? Earth, Biology, Chemistry, Geology.. The fact that you was so vague makes me believe that you have no degree.

I'll be specific I have a Bachelor Degree in Space Sciences, and a minor in Physics.

So nah I don't think I'm being a ass. I'm just stating facts.
Elenin will be harmless. It will not/and has not cause/ed any quakes.

But in my opinion since this site has a population of people who like doom and gloom, they will throw science out of the window, for what they possible want to to happen.

You are sort of committing an injustice by lumping two mutually exclusive theories. How many Hopi natives or Mayan scholars do you think actually gives a crap about Elenin? It's western MSM phenomenon that clumps them together.

Personally, when Elenin goes by harmlessly, I'm gonna say "Bummer, it was cloudy..."

When 2012 goes by, I'm going to say "Look how far human evolution has come these last three years". The 2012 prophecy is happening now and, even if nothing spectacular took place and we only kept the same pace of societal growth, the prophecy will be proven true.

No. People need to stop saying that this Elenin hype is the fault of the MSM. So far I have heard them say nothing about it except for possibly announcing its discovery. Other than that they have contributed nothing to the fearmongering. That has entirely been the fault of conspiracy theorists, alternative news sources, and New Agers. So, when this thing passes remember it wasn't the MSM that lied to you, but those sources that many on this site hold up as infallible.

Way to totally gloss over my point. I'm not going to dig up a bunch of links but if you simply do a Google news search, you'll see several articles from CNN, Fox, and MSNBC. No, they don't talk about doom but they do often leave an open-ended sensationalized what-if scenario. But that wasn't the point, anyway.

The point is that the 2012 phenomenon is a culmination of several prophecies while Elenin is a large ball of ice. Any connection made between the two should be viewed at with a grain of salt.

Oh I agree with your point completely. I'm just getting tired of seeing people claiming that the Elenin hype originated with and is stemming primarily from the MSM when the primary sources I'm seeing for it all are YouTube videos made by conspiracy theorists and alternative news sources. If the MSM is hinting at it all it wasn't until the conspiracy community was sending countless emails to NASA and Leonid Elenin everyday and making claims that there was some kind of media blackout regarding the comet.

I didn't specify because it wasn't relevant and also didn't want to be accused of boasting. Since you ask - Biomedical Science and Molecular Biology. So no its not space related but it is a science degree. The point was more to show that even though I am trained in science (and therefore have some understanding of science and the scientific method) I don't believe it has or will ever have all the answers.

As for your facts, you could well be right and I am not a Nibiru supporter, but I entertain the possibility and keep an eye out for new info. The 100% true fact is that no-one knows for sure what will happen when Elenin passes by us. Sure you have very accurate models and in all likelihood nothing major will happen. But we won't know until it happens.

The point of my post is that this forum constantly gets bombarded by people such as yourself who come in and put up posts with a very obvious bias against alternative theories and thinly veiled insults to people who believe them. You shoot people down for believing that they can predict things like Nibiru's passing, all the while claiming that YOU can predict the future based on scientific models. You can see the hypocrisy here right?

If you had made a civil post and engaged in a respectful argument I wouldn't have taken issue with it.
