are there any logical reasons as to why the world might actually end in 2012?
There is a possibility of a solar storm that might cause some difficulties. Not really the end of the world.
Other than the fact that the world might actually end at any time? No. Or did you mean why 2012 specifically, as opposed to any other random time? Also no.
Logical? Rational? absolutely none - as others have said, there are miniscule physical ways the world could end at any time, but all the 2012 hype is as phony as the moronic convergence theories from newage sources in 1987

The classic period of the Maya civilization lasted from 250 to 900 A.D. Virtually everything that I think represents a plausible threat to humanity wasn't known about at that time--global warming, threat of nuclear apocalypse, etc. The world could end at any time, but the end of the Mesoamerican long count calendar doesn't make it any more likely.
Oh for God's sake leave it out and find something real to worry about.
