I reckon it probably won't

It's 4 days before Christmas. It would suck eggs if the world ended 4 days before christmas

Rack up the credit cards..

That's just a silly Mayan prophecy.

Nah I don't think it will either. But, I can see the panic of the possibility creating problems for the world.
I'm looking at you America (joking, you guys are alright (The exception being the crazy super-religious though, but I think nearly everyone expects them to cause problems around that time anyway))

Actually it's a ridiculous misinterpretation of the Mayan calender.

No one stop to think that they just said "feth it" at some point while they were making the calender? They might have decided that it was long enough and would make a new one when it finished.

Edit: I supose the rare chance for some people to fool the more and less gulible people would be pretty tempting.

There are no conspiracies, illumaniti

Bull the world will end 4 days before christmas

No one ever said it would.

Perhaps GW will release a new Dark Eldar codex.

@KK - Now THAT is just crazy talk. Let's get back to the sensible stuff.... so, the end of the world?

IvanTih wrote:That's just a silly Mayan prophecy.

No, it's not. Quit being bad.

The Mayan's had no concept for "End of the World".

Get better.

Exactly.

Please look it up(I can't sadly im at work), but I remember it pretty much says big change which i guess can be interpreted as end of the world, but I for one look at it more as a change for hopefully the better. Hell when the dark ages began people thought it was the end of the world.

Yeah. Its when the second coming of christ comes.

Actually, it was the end of the cycle of their calendar, which is about as accurate a predictor of doomsday as saying, 'the gregorian calendar will end on Dec 31st 1999, and look, there's no entry for January 1st 2000! It's the end of the world!'

Looked up mayan Calendar on Wiki, nothing about the apocalypse, just confusing concepts about cycles and how every cycle is different from the last and day sequences etc.

Personally I dont think the worlds gonna end on 2012. I think it'll end once we f--k it up enough.

KK, your morphing avatar gives me the heebie-jeebies!

I do beleive there was already a topic here

It's slightly different

we have day, week, month, year, decade, century, millenium, the mayans had their own calendar system, there has already been one of these full cycles and the world is still here. its like thinking a dan brown novel is a history textbook

Are you serious?

It's the end of the 5th Age, according to the Mayan Calendar. What the 2012-End-Of-The-World-Enthusiasts either don't know or forget to mention is that there's a 6th age all ready to roll at the end of this one.

They wouldn't sell too many books if they let that cat out of the bag though.

It's Garret, so I doubt it.

But if the Christ does return, I hope he comes with a weapon this time. Wandering the Holy Land being a big girls blouse didn't really work out so well.

And if he does return, £20 on the Pope gaking his silly, girly dress as he realises the game is finally up.

Seeing Jesus upturn the tables in that temple would be a sight to see.

I'd like to see him stuff every single craven Idol in the Vatican right up the Pope's sanctimonious, hypocritical arse. And once his 'Holiness' has had his fill, do the same to all other Priests, Vicars etc. Then once they all finally have an arse full of gold, sit them down (gently of course) and ask them to explain exactly which bit of 'you know, you don't actually need a priest or a temple to praise God' did they not understand...

And just for gaks and giggle, I'd like to see The Christ bugger Fred Phelps with the wang of God. See the hate mongering, homphobic ntcas explain that one. Preferably in front of a Military Funeral his family had been mindlessly picketing, whilst spanking his cheeks red raw screaming 'WHO'S YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER!'. Might even get a bit of 'Hand Of Glory' action in there.

I'd rather see this:

What? Christ riding a dogs Spazz Bolt?

I really think this, but am hoping for the end so i don't have to deal with stupid people.

WHAT!? Dude, that's Falkor the Luckdragon.

I know that, but in the pic it resembles a sperm with a Dogs Head.

Being ridden by Jesus.

Truly, this Lord works in mysterious ways.
