Does the World really come to an End in 2012?

One of mankind’s greatest wishes is find out when the end of our race is to be. With all the technology nowadays, no one can uncover the actual date for the end (if there is one). However, there have been quite a lot of predictions made regarding this date. One of the recent predictions, amongst many, is on December 21st 2012. There have been many prophecies foretold about this specific date. The end of the Mayan calendar, Nostradamus, I-Ching prophecies and religious beliefs all point to the Armageddon on December 21st 2012. So does the world really come to an end in 2012? How would it come to end? Most predict death and destruction; whereas, others believe in a spiritual rebirth. The most important prophecy is from the Ancient Mayans.

On December 21st 2012, the Mayan calendar would come to end resetting to 0.0.0.0. and then restarting immediately the next day. However, the Maya did not forecast an end of destruction, rather a time of tribulation; a spiritual new beginning. Many maintain this belief; nevertheless, there are other prophecies that predict a destructive end.

Nostradamus was a talented medical doctor born in 1503 in France. In addition, amongst his many skills, Nostradamus was a great astrologer. He made many famous predictions such as the fall of Napoleon and Hitler, World War I and World War II, etc. Amongst his predictions was the rise of World War III in the year 2012. He predicted this war to be on a religious level, with the coming of antichrist himself. This is quite similar to the Revelations in the Christian Bible.

All types of religion predict the end of days. The Christian Bible predicts the Armageddon with death and destruction led by the antichrist. The Revelations hold quite similar views to other religions such as Islam and Judaism. Although predicting how the apocalypse would take place, many of these religions do not target a specific date but rather tells one to be prepared for the future. However, the I-Ching prophecies have stated December 21st 2012 to be the end of life.

The I-Ching prophecies are Ancient Chinese writings that have predicted accurately many of the events that have taken place. On December 21st 2012, the I-Ching prophecies have predicted many natural disasters and war. However, there are many skeptics that believe the I-Ching prophecies are not true in everything they predict.

So does the world come to an end in 2012? One would never know until that time. It is best to prepare ourselves for the worst and try to bring peace to this already angry world. With the many wars, hunger and poverty, some people around the world might be even praying for the end soon. As humans we must try to change ourselves for the better and become less selfish individuals. The end might be near, let us just hope it as peaceful as the Maya predicted.
