What happens when the last Pope passes in or after 2012?
Wow! Talk about a loaded question! Ever since the 6/6/6 (June 6, 2006) End of the World scenario did not pan out, the scare mongers have been touting the 2012 End of the World scenario. When 2012 does not happen either, I am sure they will think of something else. “But of that day or hour, no one knows, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be watchful! Be alert! You do not know when the time will come.” (Mark 13:32-33) Jesus told us in no uncertain terms that we were not to know when the end of the world would come but that we were always to be ready. Each new Christian denomination seems to worry about the end of the world a bit too much.

The calendar quite accurately predicts a celestial event occuring on December 21st, 2012. The event occurs for the first time in 1,872,000 days or 5,125.36 years. The Mayans noticed the relative slippage of the positions of stars in the night sky over long periods of observation, indicative of precession, and foretold this great coming attraction. By using an invention called the Long Count, the Mayans fast-forwarded to anchor December 21, 2012 as the end of their Great Cycle and then counted backwards to decide where the calendar would begin. Thus the Great Cycle we are currently in began on August 11, 3114 B.C. It basically comes down to a calendar based on ecclipses, and star alignments. Ancient cultures were fascinated by star patterns, and star alignments. Their math is astounding, but the calendar has no significance other than it is an interesting anthropologica
