Six months from today is December 21, 2012 the supposed end of the Maya(n) calendar and believed by some as the end of the world.

Every time I see this I laugh because it was obviously written by someone who doesn't know shit about the Maya Long Count or it's correlation to the Gregorian calendar.

Oh, terribly sorry, I got this board confused with the Mensa board

The Mayans never believed 2012 was the end. It's pretty much only stupid people who do.

New Discovery: Mayan Calendar Goes Well Past 2012

GUATEMALA -- Archaeologists have found a small room in Mayan ruins in Guatemala that apparently served as a workshop for royal scribes. The scribes evidently used the walls like a blackboard to keep track of astronomical records and the society's intricate calendar some 1,200 years ago.

The walls reveal the oldest known astronomical tables from the Maya.

The Mayan calendar has gotten some attention lately because of doomsday warnings that it predicts the end of the world this December. Experts say it makes no such prediction.

The new finding provides a bit of backup: The calculations include a time span longer than 6,000 years, implying that the Maya expected the world to go on well beyond 2012.

Yep. Pretty much. Regardless of when the Long Count ends, there is no clear evidence that the Ancient Maya ever believed that the world would end at its completion. The belief is based on a particular interpretation of certain parts of the Popul Vuh.

Even if they did believe that the world would end six months from now, why should any of us take it seriously? I get so tired of the media hyping up this kind of crap and watching all the retards in society fall for it. Fundamentalist preachers do it all the time.

I fear Yahweh Sabaoth, Lord of Armies, about as much as I fear Thor and Enkidu.

There is no good reason to put faith in anything.

Great, as long as it kills my asshole cat as well I welcome the sweet embrace of a fiery death by super volcanoes.

Although the bastard would probably live through that as well and use our bodies as BBQ meat.
