If you were to poll scientists, the description "utter rubbish" would be frequently used to describe this prediction.

The ancient Mayans were quite good at making astronomical observations and using this data to predict things like eclipses. Of course, they were not nearly as good as modern scientists. The "end of the world" claim is based on modern sensationalists (who have lots of books that they would like to sell you) who claim that in their view, the Mayan calendar stops at December 21, 2012. Of course, the calender on your wall stops at December 31 2009, but that doesn't imply there will be no Jan 1, 2010.

If we consider a reputable scientist as one who works in science for a major university, I think you would be hard pressed to find even one who believed this.

Is there such thing as the end of the world 2012?

Maybe. Scientist found a calendar from the Mayans, and it is over hundreds of years old. The Mayans had a calendar and predictions about the world. Scientist discovered that the Mayans predicted that the world would end on 2012. Hundreds of years ago, the Mayans predicted that astronauts would land on the moon, and as many years passed by, we have astronauts that landed on the moon! So if their prediction was right, does this mean that their prediction of the world ending on 2012 is going to be true also?....
