This guy I kinda believe...

3 years is a long time to predict what I'll do on that day. I'll probably be studying for my PhD B)

It won't happen, but on that day, I'm going to go on the streets and tell everybody that the Eiffel Tower just collapsed.

Should be a fun day!

LOL!

Yeah and the Mayan people(Same people who made the calendar) predicted the world will end in the year 2000. And I heard there was something about it in 2006 also...

BUT we're still here. My dumbass cousin said if we don't die in 2012 we'll die in 2018 because there's a meteor half the size of Earth coming towards us. :lol:

I don't fear it at all. People always try to predict when the world will end. Chances are the world itself will be around until the sun super novas. Whether or not humans is still around is another question. But thats millions of years away.

Well, if 'Do Ghosts Exist?' merits a place in II, then this does too.

It's like the Y2J problem; everyone was really scared about it, but people in the know (Sir Patrick Moore) basically said it's a bunch of BS and it was. It's the same with this, but replace People in the know with American Humor-Based Internet Bloggers.

Except when I made that thread it was talking about ghosts as a theory, and what else they could be if they are in fact real. Now it has turned into a freewill vs. Determinism debate.

The world has to end sometime, right?

Bring it on.

The more I see that we humans are destroying the planet and each other, the more I believe we're all gonna suffer a firey painful death by way of revelations. All out warfare will surely end the planet. Especially if the US and Russia ever go to war.

I read somewhere in an article that even the Mayans don't believe the world is going to end on that date. Pretty much said Western civilization imagination made it up.

If he didn't, then someone else would have. I highly doubt any country (of the ones that currently have them now) would be stupid enough to attack another with a hydrogen bomb, certainly.

We can speculate for the rest of our lives how the world will end, but in reality, it probably won't happen in our lifetime. There's also no point thinking about it or worrying about it - life has to end someday, it's just the way the world works, but you don't want to spend your only life thinking about how you or your great great great great grandchildren are going to die.

The world is supposed to end due to the Sun exploding (as its a star and stars explodes to black holes or something like that, idk I sucked in science but I know I remember this), that won't happen in many many many many many many years from now.

i ignored all the talk of y2k and i'm ignoring this too. I have a friend who is convinced there will be great catastrophically and changes and she trys to convince me all the time. but i think its al bollocks, why is this theory so to the forefront now, when there is a big budget move about it. because they have pumped millions in scare mongering. Sure there is some luner alignment or something,, were going to have an eclipse! and the myans had no concept of the end of the world or Apocalypse. they wrote ther calander different to us and when the number got too long (i think 2012 was calculated as 1700000 or something) they just started again,

The sun is going to use up all of the neutrons (I think) that creates the nuclear fusion which basically keeps the sun emitting energy, then it will expand consuming planets (Earth is included) then it will supernova. When a supernova happens the star explodes, and it can emit as much energy in that explosion as it did during its entire life. Sense our sun is reality small in comparison I don't think it will turn into a black hole because the gravity that it has wouldn't be massive enough to collapse on itself. Even if the sun did supernova and form a black hole, the earth would be long gone.
