The universe has been complexifying and increasing in novelty since its birth, crystallizing into the culmination point and pinnacle of universal evolution. It started out with an explosion of pure energy, the Big Bang. Over long eons that energy coalesced into matter, and that matter brought forth the constituent molecules that formed life. Like a lens, this evolving life focused reflective consciousness within ourselves, compelling us to study ourselves and the world in which we live. This evolving process appears to be progressing at an exponential rate and is leading to a crown of perfection. This moment has been designated by some scientists and philosophers as the Omega Point.
The term Omega Point was first coined by the French Jesuit Priest and Paleontologist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and the Russian biogeologist, Vladimir Ivanovich Verdansky. Together, these two thinkers promulgated the ideation of the noosphere and the Omega Point utilizing the scientific method. This analysis sought to find a way around Einsteins second law of thermodynamics with its entropic, doom ridden Big Crunch. This event was also to bring a direction as well as an end point to Darwinian evolution.
It was their supposition that the biosphere in which we live would soon extrude an envelope of global thought, the noosphere. This was mid-twentieth century and long before the advent of the internet, which is apparently the hardwiring for the noosphere. As the crystallizing of the noosphere completes, the rapture of the Omega Point will occur. This experience is a divine eternal moment which will lift all of humanity to a higher plane of existence and bring us into a more intimate connection with Providence.
As unbelievable as this Omega Point might seem, our recent explosion toward a technological singularity is a glimmer of this monumental event. The technological singularity appears to be evidence of the flowering of the Omega Point within the long trek of human evolution and is a consequence of thousands of years of striving for the unspeakable.
Just as Teilhard de Chardin has shown the Omega Point to be the pinnacle of evolution, other scholars have described the Mayan calendar as mapping evolution and leading to a similar culmination point. Could all this talk about a Mayan Calendar with a 2012 endpoint be describing the same process as Teilhard?
Its compelling to note that the ethno-botanist and shaman, Terence McKenna, unaware of the Mayan endpoint and during a deep shamanic trance, discovered a similar conclusion to our historical process. He intuited a model for his theory based on the 64 Hexagrams of the I-Ching, which he later developed into a computer program that delineated a timewave. This timewave mapped the ingression of novelty, or complexity, within space-time. When he fit the timewave to the historical continuum and anchored a novelty spike with the dropping of the bomb on Hiroshima, he found that reality reaches maximum novelty in late 2012! Another way of saying this is that human evolution reaches its pinnacle in 2012 and experiences an exponential leap into the unknown.
Neither of us know if this Omega Point will happen in 2012 or not, but our own experiences and later research has shown us that this Omega Point will be established within our lifetime; nevertheless, based on the research of many independent sources, 2012 looks very promising.
Utilizing systems theory and complexity theory, Ervin Laszlo has shown in his recent book, Chaos Point, that in late 2012 we will reach a tipping point, a Chaos Point, where a bifurcation in the trek of humanity occurs; we reach a huge fork in the road and either go one of two ways. We either enter the path of stability, thereby enlightening a large portion of society and entering a Utopia. Or on the other hand, we could pick the path of destruction and decimation, accordingly creating a Dystopia. We, therefore, have many sources zeroing in on late 2012 as a time of radical and novel transformation.
As we transverse through time to this Omega Point, we will become aware of synchronicities happening more frequently. This phenomena is the universes way of winking to the initiated and showing us how much our mind and matter are coherently linked. Additionally, it is the effect of this event occurring on the temporal landscape, the fourth dimension of time, sending back waves and reverberations into the past. As we get closer to it, these waves will become more pronounced and increase in occurrence.
It is our duty as human beings to ignite the flame within and awaken our God given power of formation, bringing heaven to earth and establishing the New Jerusalem. It is within our ability to Imminentize the Eschaton and draw the Omega Point into existence.

And you did.
The teeming masses of Africa, Asia and South America will ALL be connected to the Internet in 5 years?
This sounds like an anglicized version of the Mussie's vision.
It just so happens that, according to the ancient Mayan calendar, the world will end on my birthday in 2012. I'm telling everybody to send my presents early and to charge it on their credit cards.....
Wow. What a load of pot-smoking, flower child, thesaurus driven, new-agey, crap.
Wow, everything makes sense now. Thanks!
Quack!
I saw the Omega Man. He died at the end of the movie. Count me out! Pretty funny post. I'd probably understand it a lot better if I could smoke some pot first though, like the authors obviously did.
New Age rubbish!
Occasionally I catch family Radio's biblical scholar Harold Camping on cable TV. He has calculated that the end of the world will be in 2011.
Now, I'm worried.
I would hire that guy in a heartbeat just to have that truck sitting in my drive for an hour.
Once I start reading this deconstructionist english/psuedo-intellectual crap it all becomes a blur and unreadable.
This is why so many leftists agree with this "thinking" it must be great since they don't understand it and there's so many fancy words.
The emperor has no clothes in any of these deconstructionst ramblings.
Are they talking about Microsoft's future operating system?
LOL, funny.
