An Insight into the 2012 End of the World Rumors
A mere mention of the year 2012 is enough to extraordinarily disturb and trouble the people of today. The alleged end of the world, which is to occur on the 21st of December, 2012 according to the Mayan calendar has actively engrossed everyone all over the globe.
The fact that the Mayan calendar runs out of days after December 21, 2012, this has resulted in this perception of this speculation.
This prospect has undoubtedly terrified a lot of people all around the world. This speculation has proven increasingly alarming for children since they feel they are a very young age to die so soon. The upcoming days have the increased the apprehension and concern for the parents regarding their family’s safety. The fact that people are actually using this end of the world speculation to discontinue living their lives responsibly is rather unfortunate.
The fact that will be most shocking for these people is that as much as there are predictions supporting the end of the world in 2012, there are even more theories against it as well. In fact these theories are speculating that the planet will in no form be coming to an end in the coming year. The fact that fiery, flaming meteorites will be approaching the earth and exterminating its existence upon impact is most unlikely according to these theories. These simply speculate that the 21st of December, 2012 will actually be another normal day in our lives that will come to an end and we will continue living our lives onwards.
These theories are bold enough to point out that all this fear regarding 2012 has all been unfounded all because of the lack of Mayan knowledge. According to them in fact the end of the world in the year 2012 was never really directly predicted by the Mayan civilization at all. Thus, the astrological alignments, which happen to be coinciding with the same date on which the Mayan calendar ends is a mere coincidence. Thus, indirectly just because of the end of the Mayan calendar, the people of today have included this belief regarding the apocalypse in the coming year, while it is nothing but there is no truth behind it accord to these theories.
Certain clay tablets that were discovered in the early 60’s in southern Mexico are another source that has originated the misunderstandings related to the year 2012. The year 2012 has been casually mentioned on these tablets as a period for something special to take place. We can call it tough luck that the end of the passage became unreadable due to a crack in the stone tablet and this caused people to get carried away with their imaginations and once again relate it to the 2012 end of the world scenario.
Those speculating the end of the world on December 21, 2012 fail to realize that the Mayans, who had a knack for astronomy, developed their calendar to begin at 3,114 BC. a 394 year periods basis. This makes them believe this supposedly false, end of the world rumor.
