Title: Are the Mayans Full of *bleep*?
Post by: omega2k4 on November 16, 2009, 03:57:49 pm
The Mayans don't believe the world will exist beyond dec. 21 2012, Does such a primitive race know more than we do? What will happen on that day? What do you think?

Will 2012 be the end?

Only if Palin actually becomes president.

Lol a calender has to end sometime. They were probably too busy getting killed to stop and extend it longer. I'll forgive them this time, but they better not let it happen again!

Anyone remember George Orwell's "1984"?
Remember Y2K?
I don't go for the Mayan's theory either.

Yes they are. There calendar is not real at all. The world will end when Jesus comes for the 2nd time. That could be anytime. The leader of the Mayans even said the calendar is not true and it is bullcrap.

I don't think that it would be the end of the world by the year 2012, since something similar was going to happen on the year 2000, but it didn't happen. We are still alive and we are on 2009, right now.

the mayans were accurate, but not always, im not a scholar but i know change will occur but nothing too drastic, and
even if it was the the end in 2012, dont worry about it, enjoy your life 2day, because tommorow isnt promised.  :fish:

What is most apparent to me in this thread is the fact that those posting as authorities on this subject have very obviously absolutely no clue as to what the Mayan (and Hopi) prophecies predict.

In this case were the Mayans FOS?.... maybe.....
are the posters who pretend to know what they are talking about here?....definitely.

The Mayans just got bored of accepting the whole "Big Bang" thing so they decided that they would throw back an even more bs reason that the world would end.JROWCE

The Mayans have publicly stated that the calendar just ran out.  I am believer that the world will end someday but only the "manufacturer" will know when it is time for His goods to "expire".  Heard that in church this weekend and thought that I would share it.

I don't believe the world is going to end on December 21st, 2012. According to some it does mark a date however. It marks the date of the start of something that could shake up this whole world. That is if you believe. I'll post an article and a video interview with Dr. Pete Peterson. Then we can discuss after you've formed your own opinions.

This isn't a religious debate... I happen to be a Christian myself but am able to look at other peoples point of views and form my own as well. I'm a very independent thinker. I hold my ties to my roots in Christianity without closing my mind to new incites.

I keep saying this to everyone I know who is worried.  The calendar ran out, or they just didn't have time to finish it.  The ancients Myans did just disappear right? So who is to say they didn't disappear and not get to finish?  Maybe there isn't enough room on the wheel?  Lots of stuff that was founded on history has been found out later to be not-so-accurate.  Maybe there was another calendar that continues on but it is lost in time, or was destroyed.  Maybe they were tired of working on the calendar, or maybe they just wanted to F*** with future people like "Hey lets make a big calendar wheel, but it will be fake, we will pick some really futuristic year and if people are still alive, they will totally think that the end of the calendar means the end of time and the world!  OMG! Wouldn't that be great! Lets do it man!"  And yes, they said O-M-G. 

Anyway, I have things that have to be done today, and tomorrow, and work, school, goals, pets, things I enjoy.  I don't know what I am supposed to do about it if the world is going to end anyway, so I guess I will worry about it when the time comes.  Plus I celebrate the seasons so I will be celebrating the winter solstice or Yule, on Dec. 21, 2012, so whatever.

All my boyfriend does is talk about is 2012. I keep saying the world wont end. The current mayan have said that life will continue after 2012, it just means a new way of life. NOT the end of the world. Watch the history channel.

Morons the Mayans never said the world will end, idiots saw that their calendar ended at 2012 and led them to thinking that is when the world will end.

A)  There is a difference between the world ending and the world seeing a drastic, significant change -- the second being what the Mayans actually "predicted," if anything.

B)  I'm supposed to trust a civilization on when the world will "end," and yet that civilization was wiped off the face of the Earth in the snap of a finger, so to speak?  No thanks.  Evidently they weren't that intelligent.

There are still people of Mayan decent living today, they were not "wiped off the face of the Earth". Evidently, you aren't as intelligent as you would like for us to believe.

It would do people well to at least have some basic knowledge of the topics the pick to attempt being an authority on.


www.mayanindians.com ..............."Contrary to popular belief, the Mayan civilization was not one unified empire, but rather a multitude of separate entities with a common cultural background. Similar to the Greeks, they were religiously and artistically a nation, but politically sovereign states. As many as twenty such states existed on the Yucatan Peninsula."

The overwhelming majority of their civilization was gone in a very short period of time.

There is a big difference between being "wiped off the face of the earth" and "an overwhelming majority of their population was gone in a very short period of time" even if your new version was true, which it isn't. It took at least 200 years for the majority to be displaced, most of whom simply assimilated into various other populations.

This is how often times misinformation becomes regarded as fact when it is not. Anyone is entitled to speak their opinion on any subject however it is a great dis-service to offer your opinions as fact, especially when they are in err. As I have said a couple other times, please research a subject(especially one concerning the indigenous peoples of Turtle Island) before repping yourself as an authority on it.

".......How could one of the ancient world's great civilizations simply dissolve?

Early speculation centered on sudden catastrophe, perhaps volcanism or an earthquake or a deadly hurricane. Or perhaps it was a mysterious disease, untraceable today—something like the Black Death in medieval Europe or the smallpox that wiped out Native American populations at the dawn of the colonial age. Modern researchers have discarded these one-event theories, however, because the collapse extended over at least 200 years. "There isn't any single factor that everybody agrees on," says Southern Illinois University's Prudence M. Rice.

Scholars have looked instead at combinations of afflictions in different parts of the Maya world, including overpopulation, environmental damage, famine, and drought. "You come away feeling that anything that can go wrong did," says Rice.

They have also focused on the one thing that appears to have happened everywhere during the prolonged decline: As resources grew scarce, the kuhul ajaw lost their divine luster, and, with it, the confidence of their subjects, both noble and commoner. Instability and desperation in turn fueled more destructive wars. What had been ritualized contests fought for glory or captives turned into spasms of savagery....."
