Is it a coincidence that Sarah Palin might become president in 2012 and the world might end?


The End of the World as we know it?

If you haven’t heard that the world is going to end in 2012 yet, then it’s going to be a huge shock to you when it does! With a major blockbusting movie out, numerous documentaries and a dozen or so prophecies all pointing to December 21, 2012 as being the last day of our Earth, it’s inevitable that many people will be very scared, and many companies will jump on this fear and make millions selling products linked to the pending doom.

So what is it all about? How did it start and why are so many people, the media included jumping on the bandwagon? Is it just another ‘year 2000’ scare, or are they actually right?

This hub will explore some of the prophecies and rumors and try and debunk them where possible; I will not draw any conclusions, but hopefully can present the information in a balanced way and allow you to make your own conclusion!

End of Days

The 'End of Days' is a common theme among many of today's modern religions. The apocalyptic end of the world is often foreshadowed by devastating events.

Christianity foretells:

  • Earthquakes
  • Natural disasters
  • Civil Problems
  • Wars

Many Christians point to the recent disasters all around the world, the growing civil problems in many major countries and the increase in potential for war all being portents to pending doom.

Islam foretells:

  • The coming of the anti-christ followed by the prophet Jesus
  • Ths Sun will begin to die
  • The Earth will be devastated by a major Earthquake.

Islam foretells of Armaggedden - a final judgement of mankind.

Buddhism teaches that Buddha's teaching would slowly disappear over time, and generally follow a concept of a cycle of creation and destruction.


All other religions have a similar prophecy or cycle, and the underlying factor is always some kind of apocalyptic ending - none state when this will happen, and what will follow - at least not explicitly - most are enigmatic and open to interpretation.

For a more detailed discussion, click the link below:


"After a great misery for
mankind, an ever greater approaches
The great cycle of the centuries
renewed, it will rain blood, milk,
famine, war disease
In the sky will be seen a great fire
dragging a trail of sparks." Nostradamus C2 Q 46


Nostradamus

Nostradamus is probably the most famous and most quoted prophet of modern times. In his life time he completed 942 quatrains (a 4 lined poem) mostly written in French. Each quatrain is intentionally obscure using metaphor and symbolism rather than plain 'French'.

Over the years, many scholars have studied these Quatrains and interpreted them in various ways, linking them to many past events.

For me, it's easy to link a quatrain to a past event, but it becomes shaky when you try and link it to a future event. In one famous quatrain, many interpreted the end of the world to be in July 1999. The latest interpretation now points to some time (possibly 2012) where a mysterious planet called Niburu (which is comet like) will crash into the Earth and devastate it.

The thing about prophecies is that they are not clear - I'm quite sure I could write a prophecy and some time in the next 10,000 years someone would link my prophecy to a past event.

Mostly then, I discount Nostradamus.


Mayan Calendar

The Mayans, despite being at times a violent race, were brilliant astronomers and mathematicians. Their design of a calendar (the long count calendar) is truly incredible (please see Wikipedia link below for more details) and also is at the center of a huge debate.

Through their techniques they were able to track planets and moons, and the accuracy they had adds a lot of credence to the ‘supposed’ predictions of their long-count calendar.

Their calendar has a period of 5126 years, and depending on which interpretation, once the calendar reaches the final day, the world would undergo great change.

There is no evidence that they actually meant that the world would end; some suggest that the date represents a turning point for humanity, a day where we become enlightened. Others suggest that the calendar simply resets.

However, the most talked about belief is that the end of the calendar represents the end of the world – the date this all happens? December 21, 2012.

Other Predictions

Galactic alignment

One of the latest theories relating to ‘doomsday’ is the Galactic alignment. Some link this to the Mayan Calendar, which has been said to predict this alignment on December 21, 2012.

Basically, the Galactic alignment is where the December solstice sun aligns with the Galactic equator. It occurs once every 26,000 or so and when linked to the Mayan calendar points to 2012. However, it should be noted that the alignment is cause by a precession of the equinoxes that are due to the wobbling of the Earth on it’s axis – thus the position of the equinoxes and solstices shift over time. Now, as the sun itself is a ½ degree wide, it will take 36 years for the December sun to precess through the equator – therefore to simply say this occurs in 2012 is incorrect – the actual period started in 1998 and continues for 36 years.

Timewave zero and the I Ching

 Terence McKenna, while using certain drugs to ‘open his mind’ conceived of a formula that calculates the flow of ‘novelty’ – which show the increase in the universe’s interconnectedness. This formula predicts that this will increase and culminate in a point in time when everything that can happen will happen – this time? 2012.

McKenna created a program that produces a waveform called the Timewave.  Interestingly, when first calculating the end of times, he came up with a date of November 2012, but after discovering the Mayan calendar, adjusted the date so that the two matched.

Geomagnetic reversal

One theory that I have encountered recently and is based on sound science, albeit with tenuous links, is the idea of Geomagnetic reversal. Usually triggered by a massive solar flare (NOOAA predicted that 2012 would be the height of the current solar activity which cycles over time – however they changed this recently to 2013), and linked to a weakening of the magnetic field (which some scientists believe), the end result is the reversal of the North and South poles.

Scientists agree that this happens every 780,000 years or so, and that we are overdue a change – however most scientists point to this process taking about 5000 years, not one day!

The consequences of such a change are really unknown, but most scientists believe it would simply disrupt world wide communications, satellites, cell phones etc. While this may be the end of the world for some, it certainly isn’t the cataclysm that some expect.

Planet Nibiru

This has been linked to some of Nostradamus’s quatrains, but also originates in some New Age circles from the 90s. Apparently some aliens have been channeling information that an comet-planet will collide with the Earth – these aliens initially said the event would happen in 2003, but obviously they hadn’t synchronized their calendars as they now say 2012.

Need I say more?

Web Bot project

The internet is a powerful tool, and according to Goerge Ure, whose Web Bot project scours the internet for ‘chat’ looking for patterns in the keywords used, predicts that the world will end on December 21, 2012. Apparently this program predicted the September 11 attacks and can predict disasters due to a ‘collective knowledge’.

Now as there are literally millions of websites dedicated to December 21, 2012 then I’m not surprised a computer bot would pick up on this, are you?


Nasa's Response

 Nasa are getting several hundred emails a day relating to the 'myth' of End of Days - finally they decided to respond officially by creating their own 2012 site. The site attempts to dispel the majority of the myths and rumors that are going around the web.

You decide whether they answer your doubts....


Conclusion

Personally I feel the whole December 21, 2012 is being used as an excuse to help make some people a lot of money. With a blockbusting movie, hundreds of documentaries, thousands of books and millions of websites, there’s no doubt there is a captive audience, all willing to spend time thinking about the ‘end of days’, so it’s easy to sell to these people.

I think the whole thing is just another hoax, whether it is a sinister plot by the government to control the population, or just simply a bunch of internet geeks doesn’t matter. Even if it isn’t a hoax, then there’s not a lot I can do about it so I’m going to live my life as normal and just hope I live to see December 22, 2012.

Now, to help me build my space ship that will help me get away from this planet before 2012, please buy the t-shirt (on the right).

I agree, they are using 2012 to get more money!!! And no I believe the world is not going to end 2012. In the Bible, the Antichrist will sign a peace treaty, and from that day there will only be 7 years until the Earth will end. But from what I have read from the Revalations, many of the prophecies are coming true like everyday...so we are pretty close, but not 2012!

Lots of people make lots of money, everyday, on things made up, events foretold, things from the past, fairy-tales, and all sorts of other crazy nonsense.

There are LOTS of theories about the winter solstice in 2012, which are primarily speculation (wrapped in jargon, surrounded by pseudoscience mainly), about this date foretold, and while it is certainly possible that no one has got it right, I have a gut feeling that it will amount to something.

What? I truly do not know ...

But using the fact that people are capitalizing on the now wide-spread interest, to make money, as a sidelong way of discrediting the possibility or efficacy of such an event seems a little 'off' to me. But I like your style Simey.

@topshelf - huh?

Uhm, Let me know when your 'Anti-Christ' signs that peace treaty, and I'll, uh, set my egg-timer 'er something ... lol.

I really do believe that 2012 will be a year of enlightenment rather than destruction--on rebirth rather than an end to civilization. However, in any instance, we all should stay focused and do things in a positive manner, rather than expecting the worst. It seems that every so often, someone comes up with another prediction that predicates on such a theory. Worrying will get us nowhere! Thanks, Simey C.

I do not want to be the one to say that I agree that something devastating is about to take place. But this I do know it will not be the end of the world, because GOD promise that the days will not cease. Genesis chpt. 8 verse 22. What they are looking at is a power transformation that will take place and it will bring life ending tragedies for some not all.

The only thing We as GOD fearing people can do are to make sure that our lives are right with the LORD and hope that when the calamities come that we will be able to praise HIM anyway.

I will like to show everyone this concerning Nostradamus before you make any unwise decisions about what is to take place, it will be my next Hub!

Will it look as good on a man as a woman? Or is that really what is going to happen on that day. Women will take over!!

I love your article. It is very informative, but what if they are right. Where does that leave us?

They Bible said that these days will come. What if they are very close? Let us observe to be wise and not brush things aside as if it is all a hoax.

The world certainly does not appear to be getting any better and our leaders do not have the answers to solve current problems. The governments and scientists are all looking for a way to escape all this pending doom by exploring other worlds in space to which they can escape to. They want to leave us behind.

So what insurance do we have to secure our existence? The Bible has some answers, I believe you should check it out before it is too late. Start at John 3:16, then Acts 2:38, and John 4:2-3. Here is how to know Jesus as your Lord and savior http://nonprofits.accesscomm.ca/forgivenministries

It may or may not be an end to the world as we know it. Why worry? If it is the end, we won't be able to do anything about it. Follow your beliefs and hope that what you chose to follow comforts you. In my belief system the righteous will be preserved, the land masses will move together and everything that happened on that 2012 movie is possible.

Why worry about it though? If you are prepared do not fear. There is safety in Zion according to the scriptures, so go to Jerusalem. Or in my faith, go to Missouri.

I was curious so stopped by your hub. Do not be asleep the time is getting near. The date could be, if you are right with Jesus you will not be here because his church will be lifted out of here before the tribulation.We wont be here for the fire and brimstone. You will live for another 6000 years. The body dies but your spirit goes one of two places. Heaven or Hell for eternity. The enemy rules the fallen world.

Christs is going to return, it is getting near. His prophecies are coming to pass. The word of God is the only true living text that has prophesied what is going on today. Read revelation. If you do not have a relationship with Christ read Romans 10:9-10 or John:3:16. Look around do you think things are getting better? Children of God will never be orphaned nor forsaken.We anticipate the day of the Lord Jesus return.

I know where I am going. I have no doubt.

Blessings to you. Throw rocks if you want, the truth can bite. I write this because I serve Christ. He wants no one to perish into hell forever. Deny Jesus and he will deny you before God the father. I pray for the lost. I once was but I was found. My life is amazing because of the promises of our creator. It is nothing I do, you snd I are sinners. Good deeds do not take us to heaven. Christ is the only way. He died so you and I could get there.We are free to choose life with him or life without him. You must be interested to write this hub.

Your choice get your free ticket to heaven you have nothing to loose.

In Love.

I was crious so stopped by your hub. JThe ones that believe Jesus dioed on the cross for us. Do not be asleep the time is getting near. The date could be, if you are right with Jesus you will not be here because his church will be lifted out of here before teh tribulation. Read you Bible, revelation. The devil reigns this earth so greed will prevail in the hands of many about the movie. We live in a fallen world. Look around. Is is going to get better? The children of God are excited because we know where we go. I hope and pray you are one of them as well. No pain, tears, greed, lies, deciept or devil. He is DOOMED he knows it.

I know where I am going when I pass on. You see believers do not die we pass on immediatley to be with the Lord Jesus. The world is full of Godlessness and my prayer is if you are wearing Blinders read John3:16 or Romans 10:9-10.

The only truth is the word of God. Much has come to pass over 2000. Sorry but if you lived another 1000 years you could not have predicted the living workd of God. Read up on it. You have nothing to loose, everything to gain.

gospel. If you live a thousand years that would mean eternity for you. If you do not die.

No harm intended. In the name of 'Jesus' With Love

Will the world end in 2012? My thought is NO it will not. The world will end when man kind reaches a point that all available resources needed to sustain life are depleated. off course history seems to show that man can create any number of reasons to go to war. However, in the final analysis, I think it will be man kind that distroys the world and not anything beyond those limits. Apparently, God seems to be content to allow it to continue.

2012 is the next major solar flare likely event, which had started a few years back; tree-ring evidence indicated drought period on earth within the cycles.

As a result of combination of the Earth axial tilt and sunspot cycle as well as solar flares been the interval of climate change during the Holocene periods.

But we have opt for a fossil fuel era of Anthropocene climate, an interesting combination mixes this time.

Earth system science believes that human interference to planet Earth carbon cycle on land and at sea affects the ocean circulation, the stratosphere and its ozone layer, and the ice of the cryosphere. The Earth’s functioning system is now close to breakdown.

If hydroxyl decides to take a break now, our Planet Earth’s metabolism will cease to function without her ephemeral chemical. The concentration of hydroxyl in the atmosphere is merely one part per trillion. Our trusted janitor might resign anytime.

Good Hub! People just love to be frightened don't they?! Everything will be okay -- the end won't happen that way. People on earth will one day travel to other planets and so forth. There will always be natural disasters but we shouldn't worry to much about it; we all won't die in 2012. There's to much for us to do on this planet to develop further our natural abilities for knowing who we our as spirit beings housed in a human body, to experience and learn from our realities.

My view is similar to the religious views that we cannot, at this point, put a date to the end of the world. The only way we can know the exact date is if we can track large objects in space heading straight for earth.

Of course, earth will be destroyed one day, but that could be BILLIONS OF YEARS away. As for humanity, we could last for another few million years yet if we're very lucky. My gut feeling is that some catastrophe or other will wipe out the human race within the next few hundred thousand years or so.

I'm super confident that most of us will still be around come 22nd December, 2012

As I understand it as a Christian no man knows the day or hour,although some say we can know the year, and maybe so, but according to the bible this world will never end, although it may get torn up pretty bad and a lot of blood shed. The Jew has the earthly promise so there will always be an earth, Christians have a heavenly promise, and we will be taken away in a twinkling of an eye, therefore revealing the anti-christ to the Jew. There has always been a shedding of blood for sin, the lamb in the old testement, then Jesus shed his blood for the Christian(ones who accept him and follow his teachings), so once He has gathered up the Church in the rapture, and you are not in that group you will either take the mark of the beast to save your physical life or killed refusing the mark(shed your own blood) if you want eternal life spiritually.

Hi SimeyC, this is a great article. The only problem that I have about this topic is the fact that the Bible states that NO man knows the day nor the hour when Jesus will return. God would not go back on His Word and reveal this to anyone. Man need to stop trying to play the role of God and focus more on serving Him only!!!

If you don't believe in the Bible, your in trouble already.

The Bible says in two places the earth WILL NOT BE DESTROYED, EVER.

Ecclesiastes 1:4 A generation is going, and a generation is coming, but the earth is standing even to time indefinite.

Psalm 104:5 He has founed the earth upon its established places. It will not be made to totter to time indefinite or forever.

Yes Revelation mentions a new world but its a re-established earth to the orginal state God intended it to be before man ruined everything. God (Jehovah) gave adam and Eve the instructions to populate the earth and even at the time of Noah and the great flood he has never and never will destroy the Earth or all it's people. There is so much hope and excitment in this re-established world to enjoy, it is a definite promise of a wonderful future all but the wicked have to look forward to. God with his son Jesus made this earth to last forever to time indefinite.

There you go, I know what it says and it is so easy to find scriptures, but I was just too lazy to look them up, but anyone who wants the answer it isn't that hard to find if you own a bible and believe it. But don't you wonder about after the 1000 year reign? What then? I know satan will have to tempt the last living for all fairness in choosing between good and evil so he will be loosed a little season, but I always wonder what then? Of course the Christian will be spiritual "The Church" so not tempted. Just always wondered if it will go on as the 1000 years has.But hey you are just worried about the next 3 years and Im skipping generations down the road.Sorry.

END OF THE WORLD ! Who knows? It is started from a speculation from ancient text that no one can prove the 100 percent accuracy, not even 100 percent comprehend the CONCRETE TRUE MEANING of those ancient text. Speculations that became a news, news that turn to worldwide mental debate, that finally became movies as a form of entertainment. A great source of business and money.

End of the world might be real, as so many ancient text implies including the Bible.

How about giving "END of the World" a different term, Like DESTRUCTION of the HUMAN SOUL and JUDGMENT DAY for the SPIRITS. Consider that Angels were not envy of creation of the Earth, they envied about the creation of Man.

APOCALYPSE maybe a war between creations, Not God against creations. God will walk again on earth not for the Apocalypse. He will come back for the "chosen". And let those who are not to enjoy their own "free will". And that "free will" is the energy that God's creations are using for the so called " APOCALYPSE".

Being a practicing Muslim I believe the world can only shrink upon the discretion of Allah Almighty, HE can destroy the planet whenever n however He wish to do so and observing the contemporary circumstances of making this issue a hype is just a way to attract the audience towards the deal. These issues can make a believer aware that God is the only being who can do whatever He wants and it embraces the followers to strengthen the trust upon the ultimate being.

No, the world will not end then. It will keep going on until all humans called to salvation will be written in the Book of Life, Revelation 20:20-15. Then this world will have a new make over as God the Father brings the Heavenly Jerusalem to the earth, Revelation 21:1-27. itwill be a world without end.

It's interesting to see the diverse comments on this hub. Most seem to agree that 2012 isn't the day of reckoning, but many point to religious texts etc that do point to 'something'....

I really don't think it will happen. There were a lot of times when the world was supposed to end, like Y2K, but we're all still here...

SimeyC! Thanks for this hub. When all is said and not done, we are programmed to go about our business, get somewhat agitated, and remain content (as long as we have convenient access to essentials, especially food and water) allowing "the movers and shakers" on our spaceship Earth to pilot us into brave new worlds. If we're agitated enough, the discontent demonstrate and strike for minute adjustments, while humanity moves another step toward compromising quality of life. The indigenous peoples are among the endangered species, and their lifestyle and habitats are the most compromised - our human canaries. My question is: Will we continue like sheep, or will we awake and take up the yoke voluntarily? Among the many international grassroots movements working to awake, educate, and mobilize participants into a possible new age, Rain Forest Nations are collaborating with us northern hemisphere sleepwalkers thru Pachamama. http://www.pachamama.org/

i believe its nonsense most religions are mostly nonsense look at india and its insane belief that we go round and round and round and round. they believed in the kali yuga the middle yuga and the golden yuga all incredibly long periods of time, now we know that man hasnt been around very long on the planet so that was all wrong. they were mostly wrong and were dreaming in their soma filled heads and over meditating looking for a way out of dying.

In the nineteenth century, a religious nut by the name of William Miller predicted that the world would end on March 21, 1843. Obviously, he was wrong. He then predicted that the end was nigh and that Jesus would return on Oct. 22, 1844 (around lunch time, I believe); unfortunately, a lot of gullible idiots believed him and sold all of their belongings (probably to associates of Miller).

Why people insist on insisting that this beautiful world must end on a specific date is both amusing and pathetic. It's always either a scam or some sort of group death wish. However, if anyone wants to give me their money and precious metals prior to ascending to heaven to meet Jesus on Dec. 21, 2012 at 12:07 PM EST, please feel free to contact me re banking arrangements.
