The idea that in 2012 we will undergo a rapid transformation Is a theory I could really only get into if I was on lots of Ecxtasy or Coke. Living life sober for a couple months now, the whole idea is retarded to my now clear and sober mind.

Discuss.

Rapid transformation? I don't know were people came up with that, but there is a very slight possibility Earth could be catapulted into space  as the poles are going to shift places. I wouldn't count on it though as the cycle happens every 25,600 years or so, it's already happened before, just not in human history.

I really doubt much anything will happen although it's interesting to read about Terrence Mckenna's views on 2012 and novelty theory. I wouldn't be surprised if we were headed toward some sort of technological singularity rather than a massive psychological/physiological human transformation.

What's the big deal?

People think things have to happen absolutely in their own minds

Personally i don't care if it does or doesn't

I'm in it for FUN!
if

2012 happens - you can bet it's going to be a blast! 

if not

Then it'll still be okay - just watching the progression of mankind

So what's the big deal

either way

So hope it happens

Or doesn't

Who cares?! 

We're still here, anyway!  :laugh:

Perhaps 2012 is just the end of the beginning. We don't need a massive cataclysm or dimensional shift - our world is already changing rapidly and our interconnectedness is seeding new ideas all over. I see it as more of an inflection point in the direction of our evolution. While any correlation to a specific date may simply be coincidence, I think we are already seeing signs that changes of the next 20 years will make the changes of the previous 200 years pale in comparison. I certainly don't need metaphysics to tell me that.

somewhat off topic, but once I was getting gas and this old woman asked me If I knew the word of Jesus Christ. I have read the bible so I replied "yes" and she responded "Good, atleast we know where we're going when the world ends". Christians and crazied drug users go deep into world ending tomorrow ideas

ok. you all don't seem to know any real information.

2012 is just the approximate "end" of a processional cycle of the equinoxes(it has to do with the earth's wobble).  apparently the winter equinox will be lining up with the center of the milky way galaxy.

this lining up with the galaxy is what myans used as a "starting point" in their calenders.

contrary to popular belief myans didn't say 2012 would be the "end of the world" rather the end of an age or cycle.

now i'm not going to make any predictions, but the 2 most plausible predictions in my mind are either

1. a polar shift.

and/or

2. the timing of the ruling elite to implement some sort of plan.

one can only speculate.

Watch Zeitgeist much?

The Mayans weren't around long enough to notice the eons/cycles you're talking about, much less predict when one ends and another begins. They simply weren't that astronomically advanced.

Furthermore, there's absolutely no evidence that these cycles have any significance whatsoever in the progression of human civilization. To presume that they do is extremely speciocentric, and completely unfounded.

well I agree that these cycles have little to no significance to human evolution but the Mayans were able to have calenders that tracked the planets that are visible to the naked eye and the constellations with very good accuracy they had calender's for Mars, Venus etc as well as the moon and sun and the way they lay out their stone calenders you can go to any date and see were the planets and stars will be or were on that date, they weren't as advanced us we are now but they could have seen patterns of planets lining up etc. so they could have noticed the eons/cycles with out having to be around for them, but that doesn't mean they know what they meant to human life they could only theorize what these patterns really meant. so we are in no better place than them when it comes to that either.

And yes, as someone else previously pointed out...The Myans Deffinatly had a much more sophisticated grasp of astronomy than we did....:whatever:

Wow, some people in this thread actually think that a pole shift can just suddenly happen. That's so incredibly stupid it boggles my mind.

It is hypothesized that polar shifts take millions upon millions upon millions of years to occur. They're so slow they're incredibly hard to observe.

We can all argue till the sun comes up, but we're all gonna have to wait 4 years and see what happens!

I for one think we are already in a transitional phase to a new "age". So far we've had:

Stone Age
Copper Age
Bronze Age
Iron Age
Industrial Age

Now, obviously all of these ages are arbitrarily described by historians, but none the less, there are still differences in technologies and ways of life that distinguish them from all the other ages. I believe we are transitioning from the Industrial Age to the Computer Age as we speak.

And considering how long ago the Mayans lived, I'd say guessing the year 2012 for this new age was a pretty damn accurate guess. In reality I'd say it really "started" with the dawn of the internet in the 90s.

I disagree. the myans were very astrologically advanced.  it was pretty much the basis of their culture.  If we today are aware of the processional cycles, its not far fetched to say the the myans were too considering their calenders etc. yeah maybe their dates aren't perfect, but they had an idea.

I somewhat agree, but mostly disagree.  The sun and the stars have played a HUGE part in culture and civilization throughout the ages.  ancient cultures worshiped them like gods etc. and we still celebrate the equinoxes to this day (in christan faith; easter, christmas etc.)

have you personally seen a polar shift happen yourself?  i don't claim to know exactly how a polar shift would happen, so i still consider it a vague possibility considering the circumstances.

perhaps Celestial bodies can go thousands of years with their pole positions intact, then suddenly when all the forces line up just right switch them suddenly? theres alot of forces there we don't completely grasp.

its like speculating about black holes or something.  no one knows just how it works.

well i have to agree with shins, ancient cultures had knowledge about stars and planets modern science can't explain, like how they knew planetary positions etc. plus the mayans or whatever culture it was knew about about some star that was hidden behind a planet and simply could not been detected without powerful telescopes.

and cycles/seasons played a great part in humanity, as people were more touch with the natural world and had greater observation skills. religions were invented for those too simple to understand floods and seasons and eclipses, myths were made to explain them to peasants and simpletons, priests were people with power because written word WAS power back then.

Wow, some people in this thread actually think that a pole shift can just suddenly happen. That's so incredibly stupid it boggles my mind.

It is hypothesized that polar shifts take millions upon millions upon millions of years to occur. They're so slow they're incredibly hard to observe.

Seriously, try doing a simple search on Google before spewing a bunch of shit out of your asses.




there is scientific evidence of at least one if not several pole shifts.  it can happen.

I've always thought 2012 was bullshit, even when I was on drugs.

Those who believe in 2012 the most are probably Christians. Christians WANT the world to end so they can claim its the apocalypse.

Wait...I mean... :uhoh:

Take a lot of LSD or mushrooms and it's there all over again!  2012!  It's not in the future!  Nothing is real! :smirk:

I'm in this mentoring program, and today we went around the room and every kid said one thing they'd like to discuss in the coming semester.  Most answers were half-hearted mumblings of "the economy", "Barack Obama", "violence", things like that, but one kid said, "I'd like to learn about the apocalypse!" :lol:

“Strengthened by contemplation and study,
I will not fear my passions like a coward.
My body I will give to pleasures,
to diversions that I’ve dreamed of,
to the most daring erotic desires,
to the lustful impulses of my blood, without
any fear at all, for whenever I will—
and I will have the will, strengthened
as I’ll be with contemplation and study—
at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

Well if there was ever going to be an apocalypse on Earth, I had have to guess that the vast majority would not be expecting it. Otherwise it wouldn't be much of an apocalypse.

^ perhaps thats the key to it all.  could it be possible certain people are intentionally encouraging people not to expect it, to gain themselves a position of greater preparedness?

Who's hoarding all the wealth and milking the "unexpecting"?

I think the majority of people I talk to whether they be into drugs or religion or whatever.. believe SOMETHING will happen.

So even if nothing happens astronomically I think there will be at least a few nut jobs that kill themselves heavens gate style.  I think I'll have a couple extra batteries and canned goods sitting around come winter.


To to add fuel to the fire my theory has been-
A comet carrying bacterial endospores hits the earth.  The bacteria is of the flesh eating variety and zombie types take over the world.  The population is cut back by 50% and finally we don't have to worry about a shortage of natural resources and the rest of the world can finally live the CORRECT way. Which is like Americans....

No wait... it gets better.

The comet is carrying spores to a cordyceps fungi (you know the parasitic ones) that not only target humans but are the most intense psychedelic fungi available... Cubensis makes me get excited over horse shit...  How do I know the right trip won't have us hacking up people and discussing the correct amount of gypsum to add to make our substrates ideal...

Oh yeah.. happy Halloween folks.

You were only around for a few decades (give or take). Don't you think you know things that happened before you were alive. Any history at all?  They have the begining of time set over 16 billion years ago. Right around the time scientists today think time started.

That depends on your epistemology.

If memory serves the Myans were the Central American Race that completely VANISHED!!!!! Did it ever occur to you that 2012 was the last date they got up to on theyre calendar? :shrug:

And yes, as someone else previously pointed out...The Myans Deffinatly had a much more sophisticated grasp of astronomy than we did....:whatever:




I'm not understanding you here. First you say the Mayans "VANISHED" (which is not true). THen it sounds like you are saying that 2012 is the year the last full blood Myan dies, which that idea has passed my mind.

whether or not massive upheaval happens in 2012 is debateable until 2013, however, SOMETHING earth shattering will happen in our lives. i know it.  and not everyone will die.  humans will always survive somewhere on the planet until everything is dead. look at how long weve been around as it is.

I really really wish that these end of days people would agree to sell me their houses, cars, possessions for $1 at a certain date, I'll even hire the lawyer!

Because as long as we've existed people have claimed the end of days is near, and the Mayan one is so ludicrous for the same reason the 1000's of huxters of history were dead wrong.

But if you actually want to read why its dumb:
