2012 actually correlates to some astronomical events, though some of those events may have too. I'm not sure about 2012 to be honest, though I think it would be cool if something happened. I have a sneaking suspicion that these shifts or 'apocalypses' are going to be more subtle than people expect.

Also, wasn't there a thread in the Mysticism board about apocalypse actually having a different historical meaning that it does now?

2012 actually correlates to some astronomical events

The date corresponds to a conjunction of the ecliptic with the galactic plane. This happens once every ~26,000 years. That's ~200,000 times so far since the solar system formed.

What's one more time?  :confused:

Besides, I happen to know that the first Terminator arrives here from the year 2028, so there!  :tongue:

Beats me, I wasn't around last time.

Though you could argue that since last time it happened there's no record of anything out of the ordinary happening, chances are nothing extraordinary will happen this time around either. Still though, it's rather entertaining to imagine something happening.

Also one cannot discount the possibility that something would happen on a more subtle level than, say, aliens raining from the sky (cool as that would be, I don't think that that's going to happen).

I wonder what they meant
When they said REPENT REPENT

Um, is repent a scary word for some? I thought it just meant, to reflect on things you've done that were pretty shitty to do to yourself and others and to make your amends for them through forgiving yourself or some form of forgiveness in general. Forgiveness just means- giving way to what has been, is and will be. It's not a scary word either and opens new doors to better days.

No matter what time of life your in, making amends is never a bad thing to do. It does good and feels good. Forget about it improving the quality of your after life if you don't believe in one. Do it because, it improves the quality of the life you are living now.

You make it sound like  foolish, horrible and sinister advice diploid. :tongue:

:peace: :heart:

Actually, I believe that 2012 is the end of the last cycle of the Mayan calendar. The Mayans were freaky-good at astronomy, and had eclipse predicting down to a level beyond what any other ancient civilization had done.

Of course, most of the writings of exactly what happened were destroyed by the Spanish explorers, so most of what we know is, well, nothing.

Aside from that, the Mayans generally has a cyclical view of the universe, so rather then 2012 being the end, it'd most likely be some sort of rebirth.

You missed the joke embedded in the title of the thread, but then if I have to explain it, it won't be funny.

In any case, what's foolish, horrible, and sinister is believing the year 2012 will be different than any other.

And if history is any indicator, in 2013 the conspiracy nuts will invent yet another Armageddon d'Jour, then a few days later I'll revise my list and start this thread again. :shake:

If people really believe life and the world will end on that date, just have fun knowing how funny it will be when the sun comes up over the horizon the next morning and there are still bills to paid and food to put on the table.

THEN you can laugh your ass off at the doomsdayers. And do your naner naner :razz: thing. Is that what this is all about to you, being right? Or would you really like to help resolve fears in others?

In the mean time, do you think a simple "It's BS!" Is going to change the mind off those who are really afraid?

Is making fun of them going to change their minds? Doubtful as it's difficult for people in fear to suddenly become lighthearted and reasonable for no good reason.

You can post that stuff of prophets who missed and yet, if you understand fear, that was then and this is now for people. The fear for them is about what's up ahead, not what has come and gone.

There is only one sane thing to do for those who are afraid. Listen to those that are acknowledging an ending of sorts, just not an ending of life and the planet.

Like when I found out that Apocalypse actually just meant revelation in Greek at the time it was used, not war and ending. I shared that. Its the revelations people who are scared of an end. One of these days Blue and I will work on that Bastard to and show, its not what it appears to be.

The 2012ers are going off the Mayan calender and that is just the ending of a cosmic cycle, not the end of human life or the planet. They are in understanding that just a sublle influential shift is undergoing, that's all. If you sneeze, you'll miss it it's so subtle.

Then you have me and others, who know, 12/21/2005 was the pivotal hump to get through and we did and all is well. We hit critical mass earlier then expected. And that was the BIG deal, the last weeks of Dec. if you sneezed, you missed it.

Why don't you wait until someone actually posts and says, they are afraid of whats to come and then, work through those fears with them one by one in a way THEY can relate to and understand you. It's going to be related to revelations and events discussed in it.

That has nothing to do with Mayan stuff and many are confusing the two. Start working on revelations if you want to understand their fears and resolve them.

And in the meantime, if its the scare some people need to wake up and get their shit together well, then , thats not a bad thing either.

What is your concern, that because people think the world is going to end that they will live like careless shit heads? Look around, people who don't fear the end do it anyways:lol:


I don't even know anyone who beleives the end of the world is nigh, Do you?

There have always been doomsday nuts. We are all still here. :shrug:

:shiftyeyes:

if they believed it enough, it was real for them, just not for anyone else, so the death they experienced was more like a 'second coming' persay to them, just looked like they died to everyone else...

Is that what this is all about to you, being right?

No Jigz, how can you read my thoughts for years and still have no clue what I'm about. It's never about me. It's about fighting irrationality, fighting it because it is harmful to believe fantasy as if it is reality.

Want examples?

1. It is irrationality that buries its head in the sand and refuses medical marijuana to patients dying in pain by refusing to acknowledge study after study after study (including some commissioned by the DEA and and later suppressed) that show MJ is one of the safest drugs humanity has ever discovered, and the other studies that show it does indeed help patients suffering cancer, AIDS, diabetic neuropathy, and a long list of other painful diseases.

2. It is irrational beliefs that have us killing and dying in Iraq by the dozens on a daily basis.

3. It is irrational beliefs that fosters the suicide bomber who thinks God wants him to blow himself up in a crowd of shoppers that often includes children.

4. It is irrational beliefs that justifies forced female circumcision, oppression, and physical and emotional abuse in male extremist religious fanatics around the world.

5. It is irrational beliefs that justified the forced castration of choir boys just before puberty by the church in order that their voices would remain in a high register pleasing to God.

6. It is irrational beliefs that killed ONE THOUSAND, including almost 300 CHILDREN in Guyana when wild irrationalist Jim Jones decided that's what God wanted.

7. It is irrational beliefs in UFO comets that lead nearly 40 people to castrate themselves and later commit suicide while wearing identical Nike sneakers in order for their 'souls' to hitch a ride on a spaceship.

8. It is irrational beliefs that lead the gullible and depressed to spend more than they can afford on disgusting predator psychics who tell them their dead loved one is happy.

9. As for 2012, that it is bullshit doesn't spare the gullible and dim-witted among us from suffering fear, stress, and depression. Witness the poor guy asking in MRP about the end of the world in 2012.

Want me to go on? I could all weekend and not run out of reasons irrationality was the scourge of humanity our entire history and only recently, with the rise of science and rationality, have we come from living in huts to landing on the moon.

Believing made up bullshit, including that which you've convinced yourself is true without corroboration other than your own flawed human psychology, is bad. Bad for you, bad for me, bad for everyone.

In 1000 years, if humans are still around, they will look back at these times the way we look back at how blood letting and leaches were used to cure disease and how witches were burned alive to ward off Satan.

I can't fix the world, but I can do my tiny part to fight these destructive bullshit beliefs, and here I am.

I have one better then leeches. They are now sterilizing maggots to clean out open flesh wounds.

Diploid, you' cant erase the words of Paul in Revelations. You can work to attempt to understand them and attempt to understand why people believe in them. From there you can work to ease irrational fears.

You're ranting, is just a turn off to anyone with ears willing to listen.

I have been reading you for a long time, and I notice you only see the bad side of what you call irrational. People do a lot of irrational things that turn out well for themselves or towards accomplishing goals. We don't progress by rationing alone. Rationing is the process of conserving. How far do you take? Do you conserve to the point people are immobilized by fear paralysis of using and spending what is available to get from point A to point B.

Why do you think what is rational from your POV is the rational view from another's?

You haven't walked in everyones shoes to understand why they make the choices and decisions they do. Was it irrational of me to spend about the last 500 my business had just to bribe a mechanic to come out to look at the engine, when he said he was to busy that day? My husband thought I was nuts when I insisted and made the call. Had that boat not been able to go out the next day, a major resort that booked tours with us would've dropped us for canceling on a VIP party. I got the guy to come out, he waived the bribe, fixed it and we kept the major vendor that brought in $120,000 a year alone.

I have pulled more irrational shit then I can remember that saved the day and brought big returns.

There's a time to hold back and time to let it go and to go for it. What you call irrationality I call risk taking. Some loose big and some win big. It's how we have moved forward as much as we have been held back back by it, however, thanks to the majority being irrational, we are more ahead then behind in progress.

Oh ya, lets fill a ton of highly explosive rocket fuel into a metal tube and shoot people to the moon. Cool ya, go for it. I want to ride in it first! The nuts make the shit happen.

Where when and how people apply it is one thing. The results are another. Often being rational has lead to big losses for people.

As for that poor guy in MRP? That had puppet troll written all over it.

Who goes from absolutely shredding on people working with crystals to "Uhh do you believe the end of the world stuff?"

Suit yourself, keep mocking, keep judging, keep misunderstanding and think you are saving the world from what it's been built on.

Back in the day, it wasn't rational to go sail your boat off the end of the flat earth. People thought Christopher was fucken nuts.

My concern is that if everyone became rational tomorrow, the end would come-quickly as people caved in on themselves under the pressure of withholding and not believing, something extra ordinary can come of something when taking risks and chances, irrational as they may appear at the time.

Well, we agree on one thing here, we don't want to see people in needless fear.  I'm trying to understand the way you are going about it. The phrase-"It's Bullshit" is not supportive evidence to make one have a change of mind or heart. Until you can back up why revelations is BS, who that believes in it are you going to sway?

Everything is better than it was the last time.  I'm good.

If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.

It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence.

I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too.  If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

The phrase-"It's Bullshit" is not supportive evidence to make one have a change of mind or heart.

Yah, tell that to the relatives of Jim Jones' victims. :thumbdown:

Republican Values:

1) You can't get married to your spouse who is the same sex as you.
2) You can't have an abortion no matter how much you don't want a child.
3) You can't have a certain plant in your possession or you'll get locked up with a rapist and a murderer.

4) We need a smaller, less-intrusive government.
