Whew! That’s a relief!

[RobRoy]

Anybody up on this stuff knows it’s really 2018 anyway.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

Al Sharpton went Maya? Who knew?

[Genoa]

At the rate things are going, I’m looking at 2010.

[A CA Guy]

What human teeth around my neck? Doesn't this look like a trusting face bro? What do you mean am I a member of the bloods?

Man, you guys sought me out. What a tough crowd.

“zero days, zero hope”.

Gosh, you could build a presidential campaign on that! Just like the “bridge to the 21st century".

Naturally the elections could not be connected to this all-media chant of doom in 2012, you'd need MSM, the Print Press, Hollywood, the Gorebots, the Greens, Greenpeace, The View, and a dozen Internet sources acting in concert to pull it off, and that's just plain ridiculous.

The Mayan calendar, or, precisely, calendars, because there is a long count calendar and a short count calendar, is circular, rather than linear like ours. And the two intersect as interlocking gears. They, and Mayan time, keep turning. There is no "cosmic clock finally winding down to zero days." Instead, the "wheels" turn, the cogs of their gears re-engage, and a new cycle starts. I believe the illustration you used has been cropped to remove the long count calendar. You can see both, and how they are enmeshed, here.

Obama is trying to end the world way before 2012.

[JimSEA]

Mayans I have met are not stupid. Every last New Ager I have met is quite stupid, however.

[b4its2late]

Oh what a relief it is!

[HereInTheHeartland]

We won’t be around for 2012. Y2K is going to kill us all.

[Incorrigible]

Harold Camping would agree about 2012 being the end of the world.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

I often wonder if the fascination with end time prophecies reflects a deeper fear arising from the current sickness of Western Civilization’s populations.

[pallis]

They Mayans planned to party on 2012 by sacrificing a young virgin, and eating a few enemies. Things happen over the years, and plans go awry, but seldom do they get this misconstrued.

[GreyFriar]

This will be rejected by some folks in Rainbowarts.

"It's too bad that we're getting e-mails from fourth-graders who are saying that they're too young to die,"

It's okay. They'll be in seventh-grade by then.

[LTCJ]

Wait. There WON'T be an aircraft carrier on the White House?

I was really looking forward to that aircraft carrier.

[airborne]

Not the end of the earth.

Just a complete reversal of the magnetic poles of the Earth.

Always set doomsday out at least 20 years. Close enough to sell books, but far enough off so folks will have forgotten by that time.
