The End of the World is Nigh! No It Isn't!

Survival gear and bunker sales are through the roof and so have been the doomsday predictions.

If you manufacture or sale freeze-dried foods and water purifiers, or build underground Armageddon shelters, you must be rolling in the dough.   If the world was going to end for real, what were you planning on doing with all that money?    Never mind, toilet paper will be in short supply.

Yesterday (Dec. 19, 2012), when our solar system lined up with the center of our galaxy, you didn't even feel it, did you?   And where is Planet X (Nibiru)?   It should be filling our skies and blotting out the sun but it isn't.

The Mesoamerican "long count" and Mayan calendars never mention a world shattering disaster.   Do our own calendars predict a worlds end?   Only on April 15th (tax day).   If anything,  celebrate the fact that we will all still be here to open our presents on the 25th.

It's smart to prepare for natural disasters, I should know.   I live in what is called Tornado Alley.   I owned a home in Wichita Falls, Texas, back in April, 1979.   When the tornado hit, it ripped my home from it's foundation and splinted it into a million pieces.   Looking around on that day, at the miles of devastation, one could well imagine what the end of the world might look like.

Hey, if you were hoping for an end to Momma Earth, better luck next time.   Yeah, there will be the next doomsday and the next, etc., and those who profit from doomsday fears will again be laughing all the way to the bank.

Me, I'm preparing for the Zombie Apocalypse!  Excuse me, whilst I buff up a nice sharp edge on my katana.

Worried About the End of the World on Dec. 21? Don’t Be.

Unless you’ve buried your head in the sand—which, to be honest, would be a better use of your time—you’ve heard the world is coming to an end this Friday, Dec. 21, 2012.

OK, for those of you who are impatient and want to cut to the chase, here’s the scoop: No, it isn’t.

If you frequent online bulletin boards, fear-mongering websites, or the History Channel, you might think otherwise: It’s hard to avoid people screaming about the prophetic Maya calendar predicting global catastrophe.

And if you haven’t heard of it, then I wish I were you. Because I get email, tweets, Facebook messages, and probably smoke signals about it all the time, and have been for years. It turns out that a lot of people are concerned about these claims, despite zero evidence for them. Still, it’s worth taking a look at them, if only to assuage some fears.

Survival, Inc.: The Mayan apocalypse is great for business

Leave it to the Mayans to boost our economy.

Ahead of the predicted Mayan Apocalypse tomorrow, many survival shops, restaurants, hotels and other businesses are raking in the profits. Even though December 21 is nothing more than the end of the Mayan calendar and the start of a new one, companies are capitalizing on the disaster craze.

Doomsday Looms, Scientists Concerns and LITS Prediction for 12/21/2012

Video Link

NASA Scientist David Morrison discusses the rumors of a doomsday in December 2012 and shows how these claims are not supported by science. This updates Morrison's earlier videos "The Truth About 2012" and "The Truth about Nibiru". Another good discussion is in the JPL video "12-21-2012 Just Another Day".

I'm going to go out on a limb here, making my own prediction concerning December 21, 2012.

I have to agree with David Morrison of NASA,  that there is no planet about to collide with Earth.  Albeit, there are such things are rogue planets but if one was barreling down on us from space, we would have seen it coming months ago.  And no, it isn't hiding at the South Pole!

Planet alignment is an astronomical novelty but it does not herald the end of the world, nor does the Earth's alignment with the center of our galaxy.   In the 4 billion or so years that Earth has been spinning around the sun, it's tilted, wobbled, the magnetic field has changed, the sun has belched solar flares and gee, the Earth is still here.

Disasters happen.  The earth is an active, live planet,  subject to all manners of internal as well as external forces, such as lunar and solar activity.  Most people no longer live in caves and have this new device called a laptop, iPad or smart phone, so word does get around a lot faster than it used to (i.e., Pony Express).

An alien invasion isn't imminent;  the only lifeforms we really need to fear are ourselves and our own selfish needs. I can almost here the aliens "out there", discussing the chaos on Earth. "Can you believe this crap?  They have a good thing and all they want to do is screw it up!"

Even the Mayans themselves reject any notion of the world's end on 12/21/2012.  At a ceremony in Cuba, Mayan sage Pedro Celestino Yac Noj burned seeds and fruits to mark the end of the old calender. He is quoted as saying, "The 21st is for giving thanks and gratitude and the 22nd welcomes the new cycle, a new dawn."

My prediction is that you will wake up to a new day on December 22nd, realizing that you only have 2 days left to buy Christmas presents and taxes will still be due on April 15, 2013.   You've spent your life savings on a 3 bedroom luxury bunker and a 50,000 gallon water tank, buried somewhere in Nevada.   Good luck finding it in 5 feet of snow!

You will also realize that you now have to deal with a 10 year supply of toilet paper; several cases of batteries, MREs (meals ready to eat),  beans, rice, powdered milk and enough ammo to start and finish a small war.  Don't worry, there is always another doomsday prediction waiting on the horizon.  You are in luck!  Some of that freeze dried food has a shelf life of 25 years!

It's the end of the world as we know it: panic spreads ahead of Mayan prophecy
