Fact Or Fiction: Is December 21, 2012 Our Last Day?
Throughout time, several people have proposed specific dates in which the world as we know it would end. Most of these days have come and gone, but one day in particular still rings out. You see as many have heard of Y2K and other times of assured Armageddon, perhaps the most discussed and consistent date has yet to arrive. December 21, 2012 is the date that so many people in the past have predicted to be the end. So the question must be asked, 2012 Doomsday Fact or Fiction?
Most people when they search for answers in why the world will end in 2012 will first come across the evidence presented by the Mayan culture. These people showed exemplary knowledge in mathematics and the events and cycles of the solar system. Some people attribute this to a visit from extraterrestrial life, but we'll say for the sake of argument this was all them.
This same calendar mysteriously ends on December 21, 2012 with no explanation. Some say it is the calendar simply starting over at 1, while others feel as though they ended it to symbolize the end of the world.
More weight for this prediction came around 2900 B. C. With the Book of Change or I Ching. The calculations contained within this book assisted a man by the name of Terrance McKenna to devise a graph that has been very accurate in predicting major world changes. When the graph peaks, it has usually coincided with some major world event that changed people's lives. This graph also stops without warning or reason in 2012.
A Web Bot is also responsible for feeding into this allegation of Armageddon. This Web Bot was created to predict fluctuations in the stock market, and has been credited with predicting other major events such as 9/11. The software runs searches and compiles information based on discussion and behavioral patterns of those online and compiles the information. It has predicted a world wide calamity in 2012.
Finally, the planets in our solar system are said to be lining up in a straight line with one another all in 2012. In theory, this will make a black hole with unpredictable results. The Mayan calendar predicted such a drastic shift in the solar system occurring on the final day of their calendar, or to some, the last day of our lives.
You can spend hours online looking at everyone's proof that the world is going to end in 2012. To be fair, there have been hundreds of days that people have sworn was to be the end of the world, and yet here we are. For every argument, someone has a sensible counter point. The Mayan calendar, many believe it to be starting over, and not ending. The Web Bot, while it might have predicted things like 9/11, has been wrong many times.
For every doomsday theory, especially those surrounding 2012, there is an equal argument on either side of the coin. The truth is you need to decide if you believe it to be true or not, and if you do, you should prepare yourself how best you see fit.
