I realize that I cannot prove nothing will happen.
But, it stands to reason that we are vastly more informed about the goings on of our solar system and galaxy than the Maya were. If it were anywhere near likely that some predictable event was getting ready to wipe-out or "change" the Earth, science would have us informed about it.
It's illogical to lend credence to an extremely vague threat based on nothing other than an old calender.

First, a quick comment on the title: The sentence, "Man invented dates and time, hence they are meaningless," is epic in the enormous amount of philosophical baggage it contains.

It is just unfathomable that the Maya had access to data that we do not.

Thanks everyone for participating. This thread has been interesting.
I have noticed arguing the 2012 topic with some people is very similar to arguing about religion. I find this disturbing.
Some people are just arguing semantics based on my choice of words.
Some argue that the Maya knew something we don't. This just does not hold water in my opinion. We have mapped the trajectories of meteors that are only about 10 feet across. It is just unfathomable that the Maya had access to data that we do not.
