2012 THE END?????

Is 2012 the last year to live? I don’t think so. Think about this: the Mayans were most likely invaded when they made that calendar, or they could have easily decided not to finish it. “The Maya, who lived in Central America between A.D. 250 and 900, had a cyclical calendar that ran approximately one human lifetime, or 52 years (life was shorter back then). To account for events more than 52 years away, they devised another calendar, one that ran 5,126 years, and apparently began in the year 3114 B.C. Do a little math: 5,126 minus 3,114 equals 2,012.” http://abcnews.go.com.   Another thing is how do you know the calendar is true? You have no proof that it is actually, truly accurate.  “The beginning of 2012 has brought a new flurry of reassurances that the Maya never did predict anything would go wrong this year, and that even if they had, we're probably misreading their calendar anyhow” (http://abcnews.go.com).  This quote says it all. You never know if you are reading it right unless you have a true Mayan telling you how to read it. If you could make a time machine, I say use it to see if the world is going to end! Also you don’t have proof that the calendar shows that something is going to happen on that day. The Mayans could have been predicting a meteor shower on that day for all you know. I say when you can show proof that the world is going to end then maybe I would believe you, but until then I say it is not going to happen. I stand for that the world is not going to end!
