I believe the rumor came from the fact that the Mayans, a race known for reading the stars and suchlike, finished their calendar in the year 2012. The fear of the world ending only intensified with the premier of the movie 2012 in which the world ends in 2012 and only a handful of the richest people survive.
No, the world will not end before 2012.
I don't think so. Nobody knows expect God. People predicted that the world was going to end in the year 2000. People also predict that the world will end in December 2012. I think that it's just another rumor people are passing around.
No they do not believe the world will end in 2012.
There is no scientific proof that the world is going to end in 2012.
No reputable scientist claims the world will end in 2012
it the rumor
it you mean in 2012, a lot of people think the world is going to end, but it isn't. the 2012 thing was an internet rumor. i hope.
it is the rumor
No. It was just a rumor! The Mayan Calendar will end in 2012 so that is why people thought the world was going to end. All that will happen is the Mayan calendar will start over and we go back to living our lives the exact same way.
There is a global rumor going around that it will hit in December 2012, they say it is the end of the Mayan Calendar and the end of the world.
No people. This is all a hoax and a fake. This is all a rumor about people making money and scaring the public. 2012 and the following centuries will pass with no end of the world. :)
I believe that 2012 is not real because they assumed a same rumor like this they said the end of the world will be 1992 but guess what we past 1992 now is 2011 and nothing happened so please don't believe this nonsense
There was a silly rumor going around that the world was supposed to end in 2012, but obviously... you are reading this in the future. It is 2014 right now so you can take all of the stress away. :)
No, it is just a rumor.
You are probably asking this question because you have heard a rumor that the world is going to end next year, in 2012, but that is not the case. Most of the people who are presently alive in 2011 will still be alive next year in 2012. The world is not going to end next year.
No, life on Earth does not end in the year 2012. That is a ridiculous rumor.
I presume you are talking about the 'world is going to end in 2012' rumor. Basically, the Mayan civilization were very much into the study of time, especially calendars. They would look at the stars and sun and calculated how long years lasted and so forth. They made many calendars, but the last one was for 2011. Because they never created a calendar for 2012, some people believe that the Mayan civilization found out that the world would end in 2012. People are spreading the 2012 rumor for several reasons: 1. They truly believe this and want to warn others. 2. They want to sell 2012 survival kits to scared people. 3. They are genuinely terrified about the end of the world. 4. They believe anything they hear.
