Pero la maldad is mas divertido! O por lo menos mas interesante!
Really, the Mayan calendar ends because they just didn't write it out any further, and their civilization crashed and boomed before they could add any more. Not because they thought the world was going to end. The other Mayan misconception I would like to clear up is that <b>real mayan women weren't naked latina hotties</b> like in the movie "Apoctalypto". No tribal women are. Sorry to dissapoint...
damn, you bubble burster! i guess i should cancel my pre 12/21/12 expedition to S. America!

No the Mayan people were tracking the sun thru an age (approx 2,150 years) then it just starts over.
Ok, I have to strongly disagree. Ooooh, go to a pow wow for college credit.
The only thing cool about pow wows, are Indian tacos. Pows wows, real ones, not the hippies sponsered Cali types, are a bunch of people sitting in silence. They are a bit shy, which gives them the mystical rep. I guess Swedes are mystics too. As for 2012, they wrote their calender on stone, they just ran out of carving space.
Damn straight! Pow wows are for tourist dollars . A white boy would most likely NOT be invited to a real Native American religious ceremony.
And I could not stop laughing the last time I saw cali newagers doing their thing in public. They take bits and pieces of things they like from other cultures and throw them into a blender. They totally miss the point. They remind me of those horrible shorts of chimpanzees dressed up like people doing scenes from moves (remember those? ). I'm no expert, but I am a student of Anthropology and know just enough about the real deal to be seriously offended by the pretenders.
That said, there ARE people who are truely more connected to the "soul" of the earth, but they are few and far between these days. These people know that the world is bigger than themselves and even humanity, and that it will outlast us all. Everything bad that we do to the world only hurts ourselves. Even if we nuked the whole planet and killed everything, somewhere microbes would survive and life would begin again, evolving in its own time. We should call it the "End of Humanity" instead of the "End of the World"
I am not going to worry about what is going to happen in 2012 when I don't even know what is going to happen tomorrow. I'm would be interested if the Mayans know what the lotto numbers are going to be tonight!!!

Re: December 21, 2012
I saw this thread today and did not know this topic was on the forum. Actually I have done a lot of research on this, as a couple of years ago when I caught wind of 12/21/2012, I was intrigued my self and did not believe it. Now after all the evidence and research I have done, I think it is inevitable. And FYI: none of my conclusion is based on these ancient myths, but on research about the government and related organizations. With all the information and research I have done I could go on forever about this, but I am not here to convince you. .
