FIVE “TERRIFYING” REASONS THE WORLD WILL END …NOT!

Perusing YouTube the other day, I happened upon video offering “evidence” that the world will come to an end on December 21, 2012.

The five “terrifying” signs of the end included:

The Mayan Calendar

I’ve discussed this nonsense here Ad nauseam.

Ancient Chinese I Ching Predictions

According to a website on Chinese prophesy, in China “there is no doomsday prediction for 2012…On the contrary; China has one prophecy regarding to 2012 from Ching Dynasty. It said that a wise man will appear to make the world prosperous and peaceful in the year of Black Dragon.”

Geomagnetic Reversal

A common event that won’t do much of anything.

Black Hole Alignment

Utter nonsense.

The Web Bot

The Web Bot searches the Internet for keywords. The Internet is buzzing right now with thousands of sites discussing 12-21-12/End of the World/End of Days/Armageddon/the Apocalypse. Therefore it is only logical that the Web Bot would find heavy references to 12-21-12 as Doomsday.

Reading some of the posts following all of this nonsense again confirmed my concerns about the hysteria and paranoia concerning 2012 and the end of the world. A few selected comments following the video predictions:

“Well I believe that the world will not "end", perhaps, but something will happen. YellowStone for example is going to do something fairly soon and it will not be the end of the Earth, but it will whipe out a very large portion of the U.S. But if it was going to be a Super Volcano that is going to do us in, it will be the one in Antarctica. If it does erupt for some reason, the melted ice will flood 99.9% of the Earth, leaving only the peaks of Mount Everest dry.”

“Look i used to believe this 2012 shit. I still do. Its not natural events. or whatever. Its illuminati, Freemasons, all of them... They have been warning us for many years. and that time will come.”
