Archeologists have unearthed what they say is the oldest known version of the Mayan calendar and one that doesn't "end" with the Earth's destruction later this year. Yeah, you're welcome.

” the wall of a “1200-year-old residential building.” “

the inscription across the top says - “First National Bank of Xultún”

Oh great, because uh, obviously they had all the answers. Ya know, because they’re so CULTURAL and EARTHY and like they just FEEL so SPIRITUAL woooooo.....

So now we’re all safe, because the EARTHY SPIRITUAL MAYAN SHAMAN says so, woooo...

Because we all believe that so much more than the actual Bible with REAL prophecies that have been PROVEN true.

After obama’s laws start kicking in in 2013 it may not be the end of the world but it WILL be the end of America. I have a feeling there will be some who will cry out for the mountains to fall on them.
