OMG! We're all still here! That's because the Maya believed we would only start a new baktun ...a new age (not the end of the world). The only one who knows when life will end is "the great modeler-maker, spirit of the Earth and sky!"

Why Mayan did not predict that they will fall?
The mayans had calanders one of which was called the longcount. something like every 1000 years (maybe a little bit less) the long count would go through a baktun which is like a year kind of. so 2012 will mark the end of the 13th baktun which is the end of the longcount calender. however it was people like the Spaniards then and the Americans now who said that since the calender is done it will be the end of days. but the mayans did not predict this. they have predictions for dates going as far as 4927A.D. so all in all it was not the mayans idea that the world would end but other cultures interpretation.
Did Nostradamous believe that the world will end in 2012?
It is difficult to interpret the "predictions" of Nostradamus. He wrote in poetry, in "quatrains" of four lines each. Like Rorschach ink blots, they are capable of being interpreted pretty much any way you like. And the same quatrains are quoted as "predicting" any number of events, which makes them pretty much useless for actual prediction. So I'm going to answer, "No, Nostradamus did not predict the end of the world in 2012." The whole "end of the world in 2012" idea is based on the fact that the calendar of the ancient Mayans is cyclical; the end of the next cycle corresponds to December, 2012. But then, the Mayans' world ended when Cortez and DeSoto arrived about 500 years ago, so perhaps a prediction from the Mayans isn't really much to go on.
Is there a prediction about 2012 or the year 2027?
You can "predict" anything you like, but many predictions don't come true. I "predict" that there will be a presidential election on November 6, 2012. Some people "predict" that the world will end on December 21, 2012. My prediction is based in the laws of the United States, and is very likely to come true. Their prediction is based on the supposed "end" of the Mayan calendar. The Mayans themselves ended about 500 years ago, so I'm not sure how relevant their calendar is. When we reach the end of our calendar, we start over again. If there were any Mayans left, I suspect that's what they'd say, too. The world isn't going to end any time soon - and if it does, it WON'T be something that we know about now.
Why did they say that the world will end in 2012?

Will the world end In 2012 January 22?
There are many theories about the world ending like December 21, 2012 but really there is no way to know, we will not be able to predict the world ending only disasters that can happen
What day was the world supposed to end?
The world was supposedly supposed to end December 21, 2012. Or at least thats what the Mayans thought. MORE: The Mayans didn't think the world was going to end. It was modern man who put this interpretation on it. For the Mayans it was just the end of a calendar and a start of a new one. Just like our calendar. We don't think that the world is ending each New Year.
Is the world going to end on 12 December 2012?
No the world is not going to end in 2012. Wanna know why? Well please listen closely. The Mayans were supposed to be like ok in smartness. And one day some of our explorers found a calendar made by the Mayans that ended in the end of year 2012. Its not true I'm pretty sure they would mark on the the calendar somewhere that the world was going to end because heck yeah that's important so it probably just where the Mayans stopped making their calendar.
Why do Mayans believe the world will end in 2012?
They don't. There aren't any Mayans left. this just means the calendar resets back to 0. nothing special. they actually celebrated when it resetted. So if you fell like it celebrate on new years,2013. They also told a prophecy that the world would end in 2012, only because their calender didn't go up to 2012 before they were wiped out. hah!

2012 end of the earth?
no the world will not end in 2012, i guess no one believes in God, but it will go on forever and ever and ever.Update: The world will not end in 2012. The Lord did say he will have a rapture, but we don't know when. It's not like the world will explode in 2012. The assumed reason the Mayans stopped making the calendar was that they got sacked and killed off before they could keep going.
Will 2016 be the end of the world?
well it depends beacause they predict the end of the world every 4 years, like December 21, 2012 might be the end of the world by the Mayan calender, so maybe not!
