HOW SERIOUSLY should you take the talk about an end of the world 2012 doomsday?
There are a number of December 21 2012 predictions about the end of the world, earth as we know it. Some say that on an ancient Mayan calendar 2012 points to the end of the world: they pick December 21 2012 as the exact day because that's when the calender ends. Others speak of a Nostradamus 2012 doomsday prediction.
Some 2012 end of the world predictions are connected to each other, some are not. It has got to the point where the thought of a 2012 end of the world doomsday is freaking some people out. Should you be freaked? We don't think so. For starters, given past doomsday predictions and prophecies about the end of the world, earth should have ended by now! Since the earth is still here, it would be fair to say then that, to date, all doomsday prophecies and predictions about the end of the world (before 2012) have failed! On May 21 2011 the Harold Camping Prediction about the rapture and final judgement failed.
However, a WORD of CAUTION. Just because the earth has survived various doomsday predictions so far, does not guarantee it will still be here in the year 2012, or tomorrow for that matter? Any known threat should be taken seriously. We are a vulnerable planet. The "Greenies" make some good points about the vulnerability of our ecosystem. While we do not believe any end of the world 2012 predictions will happen, we do still recognise that there are a lot of stupid, power hungry people who make the earth vulnerable to a doomsday. But not a 2012 end of the world doomsday!
It is a known fact that we have enough nuclear weapons (weapons of mass destruction) to destroy the world... many times over! And they say we're evolving!! Will the end of the world come on December 21 2012 because of this? All it would take is one lunatic to push the button! Result: end of the world by nuclear war. But is this really an end of the world 2012 doomsday prediction?
