2012 Apocalypse Coming Up

[Core Imposter]

How do you know?

They don't call it Spontaneous Low-Mass Main-Sequence Stellar Detonation for nothing kiddo.

Only stars below 0.4 solar masses are immune.

The Bible says that the destruction will be by fire but that Jesus would rule on a new earth. I sorta kinda think the sun isn't going to blow up.

Sir Issac Newton predicted the end date of 2060. Since he had some record of correctly sorting things out I'd have to yield to the possibility that we might see Saturday.

Wormholes are possible of course.

 

[Takhisis]

The Bible sets no date, Mr. Cooper.

The Bible sets no date, Mr. Cooper.

Have you read it?

 

[Takhisis]

Yes.

 

[Core Imposter]

I wonder if the wormholes sort of flicker when they activate or if we can even see them at all?

 

[Disgustipated]

just another day for me. I'm not Mayan, so why should I believe their calendar means anything? It's a calendar, not a prophecy. Why is it they couldn't foresee the Spanish coming? Because they can't tell the future, that's why. They just happen to be pretty good at astronomy and such.

 

[Takhisis]

It's merely a change of eras.

Oooh, that'd be nice; sun goes supernova, Earth gets fried, wormholes appear in front of Earth's and Luna's direction of travel, slip through before the shockwave hits, and with luck, we wind up orbiting Delta Trianguli, and lo and behold, we get a new home, with the bonus of having been converted to a circumbinary, giving surviving Star Wars fans nerdgasms, and God and Jesus get to go home for their cup of tea. Nice.

Too bad the bible never mentioned having more than one sun. (That I'm aware of.)

I think I recall a Scientific American article from a number of years back saying that a wormhole might look like a bubble in space-time, where the diffuse edges look like a benign version of a black hole, where the light is bent, and you see your destination in the center. Dunno how accurate that is.

Or like in Battlestar Galactica some cyborg race comes to kick our buts ! That would be cool

For real I might be following a popular trend and organize some party ^-

Population boom guaranteed and as for the masive loans we can probably expect another economy crash !

Just wanted to let you know, that actually the long count date predicted the return of an ancestor that would change the balance of the Americas in 1519. While I am willing to shoot down anyone who believes 2012 is the end of the world, our culture did use predictions - although more of an equivalent to astrology than anything else.

Ancestor eh, through the wormhole.

In April 1519 Hernán Cortés, the Chief Magistrate of Santiago, Cuba, came upon the coast of Mexico at a point he called Vera Cruz with 508 soldiers, 100 sailors and 14 small cannons.

Haha, well you all clearly were less evolved - My grandfather told me a story he says that probably originates from the time the Spanish arrived: The Maya had invented soap for hundreds of years prior to the Spanish arrival and everyone except for the slaves used it. When the Spanish came they all stank so much that the women could smell their marches from miles away.
============

And as far as ancestors go, yea I believe the Americas were settled by people all across the world. Mostly by the Bering Strait, but also by proto-Polynesians, and a few strays from Africa/Europe. In our sacred book it talks about how the Maya were not the first people in Mesoamerica and how the multiple tribes had their own origins and trips to this new world. Folklore supports this too - I am surprised proponents of the theory that the Americas were settled by more than just people from the Bering Sea land bridge don't look to the Popol Vuh. It specifically says "so and so tribe sailed from the sea"

 

[Heretic_Cata]

I'll be at work that day.

 

[AdamCrock]

I'll be at work that day.

Call in sick and have a party instead ^^

 

[Mouthwash]

Just watch this (nice music, amirite?).

 

[stfoskey12]

I'll be at school from about 8:45 to 3:50 but nobody will do anything because it's the last day before winter break and everybody will be joking about the end of the world.

 

[Core Imposter]

I've put lawn chairs on the roof. Trying to figure out how to get the fridge up there.

In the morning I am going to nail straps to the ceiling joists just in case we lose gravity there for a while.

Everyone remember to watch your pets. They'll feel it first.

So when the Apocalypse starts in ahmurika on Friday it will be Saturday in New Zealand. Will they be obliterated first?

 

[Takhisis]

It has to be Friday in Yucatán, duh.

When we find out I'll tell you. Assume yes if no reply.
