There's nothing like a good 'end of the world by way of Apocalype from the religion of your choice' movie. I think. I mean, I'm still waiting for the first really good one. End of Days by Arnie wasn't quite the best and I know there was another one which was so undistinguished that I can't even remember enough of it to google it.

And on the other hand, a couple more movies involving Mayan culture, looks like Mel Gibson started something here. I wonder if they will picket these movies for portraying the Mayan culture in a bad light as well.

it's not a doomsday prediction. according to the maya, it merely marks a change in history. we either go to the next level or spiral into obscurity and extinction. it's not a big bang type event. it's a subtle marking of the passing of a new time...according to the maya.

If you're in New York, Culture of Contact is throwing Strieber a booklaunch for 2012: The War For Souls. The book comes out Sept. 18th but the launch is on the 20th. For more info, check out www.cultureofcontact.com

And here's something interesting.... Yesterday Strieber posted a journal on his website about a series of "crop circles" that are actually Mayan language saying that a series of catastrophic events will occur btwn todays and the 19th, one of which is an earthquake. Whelp, 7.9 in Peru today. Peru. Mayan langauge crop formations. Coincidence?

Well I'm only 13 and I just read a bulletein that was posted on Myspace about it. 2012 is my graduating year... and i don't know. I'm pretty scared. But I've been doing research and there has been tons of other predictions that didn't come true... honestly i don't think children should be learning aobut this because I'm scared and I don't want to picture a 7 year old imagining it.

It seems an odd choice for a kids film I must admit, but I will be watching out for this one and doing a review for my site as soon as possible. By the way if you want to understand the general buzz about this year feel free to visit my site.

Why do people think 2012 will be the end of the world? I mean what if the Mayans ment that was the end of the way things worked now. Sort of age unlike that of the previous ones. That this new age starting at 2012 will not be a repeat cycle like before. Strange movie idea though.

Do we really believe in some sort of "change" is going to take place in 2012 based on an ancient culture? In my opinion religion was formed to explain things that were unexplainable to ancient people. Why'd it rain? The rain god made it so. Why is the person acting crazy? He has a demon.

What is my ponit?

That if there is some "shift" in thinking it will go unnoticed by the masses. Most of us won't realize it's happening until we can look back and see the paradigm shift in retrospect. I believe nothing magical or alien will happen on that day. The same way nothing happened in the year 2000 when all computers were going to fail and the second coming of Christ was supposed to happen. Movie looks interesting though.

It is interesting that the Mayan Calender ends in December of 2012. They predicted previous events accurately.

If you recall another event 100 years before 2012 that to me is a premonition, a peek at the future of things to come. In 1912 a technological marvel was introduced to the world. Thought to be State of the art for it's time, The TITANIC embodied the thought of man over nature. Carrying both the Super Rich and the huddled masses, the TITANIC is emblematic of the world as a whole today. Arrogantly defying the clear and present danger of climate change, while boasting if it's technological ability to try to stop it. The crew of the TITANIC could clearly see the iceberg, but could not prevent the collision. In 2012 all the people that understand what is happening will clearly see the danger, but will for all their great knowledge, be unable to prevent what is to come.
Liken it to an avalanche. How do you stop an avalanche?
2012 is Titanic in 1912, but on a global scale. 1/3 will survive?
My 2 cents..

I would not be concerned nor worried about false predictions. The Bible is very clear that the day nor hour will be known by anyone especially Jesus Christ himself. Only the Father , God, will know. Therefore, anyone claiming to be a prophet or know the last days on earth is wrong. End of story. Gospel of Mark 13 says,
32"No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33Be on guard! Be alert[f]! You do not know when that time will come. 34It's like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with his assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.
35"Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back-whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. 36If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. 37What I say to you, I say to everyone: 'Watch!' "
Not even Christ knows the day he shall return only God the Father. How can man know? God further states to be careful at all times not to be fearful ormislead by someone who makes predictions that don't come true. These are considered to be foolish in the eyes of God. Ezekiel 13:9"So My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and utter lying divinations They will have no place in the council of My people, nor will they be written down in the register of the house of Israel, nor will they enter the land of Israel, that you may know that I am the Lord GOD." Anyone who listens and believes or becomes scared is actually acting in sin against God b/c he didn't give us spirits of fear but of peace and a sound mind (2 Tim 1:7). Best advice is to give no thought to such matters but do look for where you soul will lie after you die. You choose heaven or hell. Jesus or Satan. If Jesus returns before we all die, then you face judgement along with me. I will plead the precious blood of Christ that He shed for my life and did it will I was caught in sin. I am not perfect and I do sin but I am so thankful I have a perfect God who gave us the perfect sacrifice- Jesus. Simply ask Him to save you from your sins by confessing you are wrong and then asking Him to supernaturally save you and forgive you. You must then repent or change directions in your heart and mind. If you do this, I promise you will be free from things like the end times and the fear it produces. Take it to heart, believe me or don't but know the Bible I didn't write ( otherwise it would be wrong).

The doomsday predictions, in my opinion, are full of crap to me. Some of the ones predicted in the past came to me with the realization that we will never know how this world will end at all. the one thing that scares me is how the Mayans were able to calculate the exact time the solar system will align, perpendicular, to the center of our galaxy. This might cause a gravitational shift to our planet since the supermassive black hole at our center of the Milky Way is starting to become more active. This is not the reason why I am scared it might happen. There are also societies dating back thousands of years ago in different parts of the world that has predicted the end of time on the same date and year, with the same conclusions: Famine, rise in sea levels, the world shaking, ash and dust filling the air, and widespread fires. In my own opinion, they are probably referring to the volcanic activities on Earth that are yet to determine our fate. (Reference: Yellowstone National Park Volcano - - google, History Channel Archives on Mayan Culture, Research Using Yahoo)

You may see me as another naive person who does not know what they are saying, but isn't it true we all have a say in our own opinions of what might occur in years to come? I thought so :)
