I think that if the world does end on 2012, it will surprise everyone.
The fact is, there have been millions of 'end-of-times' dates. It seems as if every year there is no evidence backing up a certain upcoming date.
And what happens? It comes and it goes. Simple as that.
Imagine for a minute that you were alive on 665 a.d. and EVERYONE absolutely knew the world was coming to an end next year, besides, it's the mark of
the beast, how could it NOT come to an end.
Now remember the chaos that occured on 1999? Y2K bug, people were spending thousands on canned goods, waters, and underground bunkers to store their
family in until the chaos ended. What happened? Nothing.


I highly doubt when it does expire, assuming we are still liiving here, we won't
have enough notice or the technology to ensure our own survival.
