Re: December 21st, 2012


Well, if that is the end of the Earth's 5,000 year cycle, and considering that pretty much everybody on Earth believes that the Earth is more than 5,000 years old, then it means that the Earth has gone through the cycle before and it's still here.

anybody who says they truly believe that that particular date is the end of the world will sell all of their possessions, live the next 5 years to it's fullest and go on a crazy spending spree. Right? If someone truly thought the world would end in 5 years, I guarantee they wouldn't stay at their dead end job. So, no. I don't think it's the end of the world. Just the end of yet another doomsday book/newspaper/documentary selling hoax.
