What's this 2012 Mayan "prophecy" all about?
So someone enlighten me, what is all this crap about 2012 & Mayan prophecies and the end of the world (ancient version of Y2K?)? Haven't had time to read any of the books about it (won't this semester either) so somebody that is knowledgeable give me the short version please.
* I am asking for info, NOT saying I believe in all this shit.

The short answer, and I'm sure someone will give a better long answer, is that they made an astrological-based calendar system. The cycle of their calendar lasts so many years and then 'resets'. 2012 is just the end of the current cycle, as far as I understand it it is like a centennial or millennium is for us. It's not the total end of time in their calendar or mythology, it's just been corrupted in other cultures to mean that...

I heard that if you drink two bottles of tequila in an hour, all will be explained to you, the gods will speak to you directly...

The Mayan's were the most advanced and smartest civilization to ever live in the Universe! They were a gazillon times smarter than we could ever hope to be!
That's why it took the Spaniards a very long time to kill all of the wack-jobs. I think it took the Spaniards a whole 96 seconds before they wiped out every single Mayan in the Universe.
Yup, all hail to the Mayan's - the most advanced and smartest civilization to ever live in the Universe!
The Mayan God of Lightning proves how super mega advanced they were. And how they knew much more about the physical world then we could ever hope to know!

Just watch the movie 2012 and it will explain it all.
It is every bit as factual as a Michael Moore documentary.

They've already disproven the 2012 myth. The calendar was off by like 300 years

The Mayan calender goes in a 5k year cycle. Also btw the Mayans are still alive only instead of the million or so that lived at one time there are only a handful left in sparsely populated areas who have for the most part lost most of their old culture thanks to the conquistadors. The problem we have is that every crack pot historian that got ahold of the information came up with the idea that the world ended at the end of the mayan calender. Now that historians and scientist actually take time to research the topics and you know actually ask the descendants of the Mayan culture what it means, we now know it is actually just the starting of a new cycle. And like Ramairgod84 said the actual starting and ending date of this cycle varies by a few hundred years depending on who you talk to.

its not just the mayan calendar, regarding 2012.
some solar space crap will happen to about planets and stars aligning, and the possibility of the earth poles switching/reversing.
in others words there is alot of speculation of things that could happen, however if nothing does happen, mankind will make sure something happens since so many are buying into it.
