Heh. Putting faith in a calendar developed by an extinct civilization... what a joke.

The professors can assess it and the press can discuss it, but I plan to be ready.

If the Mayans were so smart why are they all dead?

Well, we have the founder of FAMILY RADIO, named Harold Camping who is on TV and Radio informing us that Jesus Christ is coming back on a SPECIFIC DATE — May 21, 2011 ( we barely have 7 months before that big day ).

How did he come up with that date ?

His Answer: Based on his reading of the Bible and analysis of numbers.

See here for stations that broadcast his teachings :

Just like Y2K ... the world’s biggest over-hyped non-event. Remember when our computers were supposed to explode and civilization would come to a screeching halt?

Ready for what?

I mean if the world is ending there’s no point in being ready for anything.

I still stand by the conviction that the only reason the Mayan calendar ends on Dec 12, 2012, is because the guy carving it got tired and decided to quit and no else else felt like picking up his chisel.

You know, a lot of people worked really hard to make that into a "non-event".

He must have missed what Jesus taught in Matthew 24:36-51. If Jesus does not know when the Father will end things, how can any human?

One theory is that they drank water from the lake into which their human sacrifices were thrown and that eventually poisoned them out of existence.

Not so smart after all.
