Wonders Of The World 2012 List

Do some people actually believe the world is going to end in 2012?

I was just wondering if people actually believe that crap or they just joke about it. The world will end one day, but most likely not in mine or in the near future. If the world was going to end, it would happen most likely from an all out nuclear war and by the time a commit or asteroid were to hit us, we would be equipped to deal with it. Its impossible to predict when the world is going to end, so why do people actually make predictions like that, is not like their making money from making people scared. Its all based on the Myan Calendar and If I am correct it says nothing about the world ending, the calender just stops, they probably died before they could add to the calender. You can do a goggle search and find all their predictions, their has to be at least 20 with set dates. Here is a site that list over 200 predictions and guess what every time they are wrong. Some people that believe in Christ and the bible also believe the world is going to end in 2012 or their will be a rapture before that date and god will leave the rest behind, which ties into the new world order and end of times in revelations. I don’t know much about the bible, so correct me if I’m wrong, it doesn’t say when the world will end or the battle of Armageddon will take place. It says that when Jesus comes, we won’t even know its happening, so how do you say it will happen 2012. Their is also no word rapture in the bible and to prove my point, god said we as sinners must die with no exceptions, if their was a rapture, then you wouldn’t have died the first death. Any thoughts or comments please.

The way I see it, when you see public schools, events, and stores shutting down, then that would be a reason to be scarred, but until then the world is not going to end.
