I'm not saying nothing world changing will occur. World changing events happen every year. What I'm saying is that we shouldn't expect some cosmic reset button to come along and fix everything for us. There's a reason why I have called 2012 theories some of the most dangerous thoughts out there. In the end they only achieve two things. One is that they will lead to people committing suicide. The other is that belief in these theories leads to apathy. These people can see the world is screwed up but as long as they're expecting something to come along and fix it for them they're not going to do anything. The sooner we an get away from this belief that we don't have to clean up our own mess the sooner we can actually start cleaning up our mess. You may find that depressing but that's the truth. Why should we continue to promote theories whose only achievements are the stifling of of progress? Sure they may give some hope, but it is a false hope.
That's a tad negative and overly limiting, I see 2012 people who are in a "hurry up" mode. Hurry up to clean up their lives, hurry up to focus on the moments, hurry up to do things they have put off for way too long. All positive things.
I read many 2012 analysis to claim that we are not going to get either a cosmic reset or a [in your description] a common, ordinary "world changing event". They see Dec 2012 as the beginning of a slow and perhaps quite methodical corner turning and, in this concept, I agree. Not with the 2012 dating as much as an overall, intellectually encompassing, a shifting away, a "log-off, logon" instead of a reboot.

Does this make up for the people who are scared out of their wits (and money) and are contemplating suicide because of this hoax.

None of this will happen unless They (whoever "They" are) actually take action to (as Xcal put it) clean up our mess. Merely sitting around wishing for "something" to happen is pointless. And to base this action on a meaningless date is just as pointless.

Why does it have to? There are no "balance scale" requirements for the crazed and the sane.

It's a discussion reserved for a few and too many of this few are, frankly, fookin' nutcases.

However, what was stopping these people from cleaning up their lives and doing all the things they've put off beforehand? Now they're doing it because they're under the assumption the world may end in 8 months, or there may be some significant life changing event? And why do they believe it in the first place? I thought that was the whole basis for this topic, not what they are doing because of it.
I appreciate the reply
