Today the hot topic for discussion across the world is Dec 21, 2012. When two friends meet, surely the topic of Dec 21, 2012 comes in their talk. Is world is going to end by Dec 21,2012? Why this discussion ? what is the basis for this?
Dec 21, 2012 phenomenon is based on a theology that is concerned with the end of the world or of humankind. According to this cataclysmic or transformative events will occur on 21 December 2012.This date is regarded as the end date of a 5125 year long cycle in the Mayan calendar. Various astronomical alignments and numerological formulae have been proposed as pertaining to this date, though none have been accepted by mainstream scholarship.
- Some groups says that end of the calendar is the beginning of new era which may undergo a positive physical or spiritual transformation.
- Other group says that the date marks the end of the world. End may be through an interaction between Earth and the black hole at the center of the galaxy, or Earth's collision with a planet called "Nibiru".
- Some people planning for a party and get together on Dec 20, 2012.
- Some people started collecting food and other materials.
According to NASA scientists, our earth is fine for another 4 billion years and there is no threats on Dec 2012. There are no planetary alignments for in next few decades, even if it occurs, its effect on earth is negligible.
According to me, like any other calender mayan calendar will also rollover.
