How many believe the world will end in 2012 as predicted by the Mayan and Nostradamus?
It’s another whacked out rumor. The Mayan calender for the old era runs out then and they never put the calendar together for the new era together. They had such a great view of the future that the couldn’t predict their own extinction. I have a Barnes & Noble calendar that rnus out in Feb 2008. Should I be preaching that world will end then ? Nostradamus’ predictions are crap. They are poems that people stretch to fit what they want to. Of all the ditty he wrote, people cite the 50 or so that seem to fit something but ignore the others thaqt are gibrish. If Nostradamus was so good, we would have read his poem and emptied the twin towers before the tragedy.
Dear old Nostradamus got one right, the death of a French king in a jousting accident. Lance through the eye. We are still waiting for the next. Trouble is that one was during his lifetime and he just may have done a bit of editing. He wrote so many that at least one has to be right, so maybe that was it. World will end in 2012? Just like it did on 31 December 1999 when all the computers were going to go spla. But didn’t. Worry about 16 March 2880 when asteroid 1950DA looks like hitting the Earth. Mayans? What did they know? Their kings used to cut certain parts of their anatomy to prove or demonstrate something or other. Does not sound like bunch of big-time intellectuals to me. More like a load of irrelevant superstitious whatsits.
