Though there are many variations of the doomsday theory, the threat most often quoted is a collision with a planet (or possibly a brown dwarf) known as Nibiru in 2012. The result would be the virtual destruction of Earth and mankind.

According to the theory, the planet Nibiru orbits our Sun once every 3600 years, making it difficult to observe. Some claim its existence is supported by ancient Sumerian writings, some more than 2500 years old. The Sumerians wrote a great deal about astronomy and had a relatively advanced understanding of the heavens. However, scholars have revealed that no such references to this mysterious object exist.

Why 2012?

The ancient Mayan calendar ends on December 21, 2012. Many have taken this to mean that the Mayans believed that this date would bring the end of existence. However, this is not so. Like modern calendars, the Mayan calender is a way of keeping track of time. The Mayan calendar was never meant to be a predictor of the future any more than the calendar in my office is meant to.

The ending date of the Mayan calendar is not meant to represent the end of time, but rather the end of their calendar cycle. Just as our calender begins again on January 1, their calendar will begin a new cycle on December 22, 2012. Their calendar cycle is just much longer than our 365 day cycle.

what do you think i was just reading a website and found this Smile

I thought it was going to happen because I live in massachusetts and we got hit by 10 tornadoes in a row last year but now it's just like whatever it's not going to happen

I do not support any theories that say the world will end.

I am not religious, but I'd like to think that only a God could decide, and humans will never know.

This is really dumb why would monkeys (Mayans) say were going to die maybe they just ran out of rock and stopped making the calendar?

My opinion is that a Spaniard killed the guy who was writing the calender and centuries later we found it but never noticed the skeleton and the steel pike.

I myself do not believe in the theory, I'm stuck with how "Only God knows the end of time." I'm not to fond of the end of the world theory for I do not believe it.
