Is It True That The Mayan Calender Ends In 2012?

Yesterday, my history teacher told me that there is a theory that the world’s going to end at 2012, because that’s when the Mayan calender ends. Is that true, or is he just messing with me?

The Mayans counted to 13 baktuns and then began count again at 1. There is nothing at all unusual about cultures not having the concept of infinity. There is an African tribe living today that counts to 8.
Yes, the Mayans calendar at 13 baktuns – since this is as far as Mayans counted – comes to an end.
There exists no theory that the world will end in 2012. What does exist is a hoax. Many hoax scenarios have been presented and none have any basis in scientific fact whatsoever. No scientists believe in 2012 hoaxes and no educated scholar believes in 2012 hoaxes.
Your teacher is uneducated in Mayan culture and history. Your teacher is uneducated regarding the Mayan calendar and why the end date was chosen. Because of this, your teacher has tried to hide his ignorance from you by parroting false disinformation.
Your teacher most likely is embarrassed by his lack of knowledge on the topic and simply threw out this hoax to stop you from asking more questions that he was unable to answer.
Yes it true the Mayan calender ends in 2012. No, the world will not end.
1) The Mayans did not have a monopoly on time.
2) The Mayan civilization fell some 400 to 500 years ago so their calenders couldn’t have been that good.
3) The reason the Mayan calender ends in 2012 is because they ran out of stone and couldn’t carve beyond that date. Fortunately we have much more accurate means of tracking time.
4) A theory is based upon observation and can be tested. Lots of calenders have ended (my last one was a month and a half ago) and the world has never ended.
5) I could go on, but I think you get the idea.
Your teacher should not be saying that and he can get into trouble for filling children’s heads with such nonsense. He’s supposed to be EDUMACATING students, not telling them fairy tales and crap. I see other people have already explained the truth behind the Mayan calendar so there’s no need for me to get into it, there’s a very good article if you go to Wikipedia and do a search for “Long Count”. But your teacher isn’t supposed to be saying those things, it shows either ignorance or purposeful deception, both of which are things teachers aren’t supposed to have. You should have a talk with him and educate him.
the mayan calender ends 1 cycle on dec 21 2012
the calender is split up into sections like this 0:0:0:0:0 and each section goes in a loop of a certain amounts of number of days/months/ quarters/years and so on so when the mayan calender ends on december 21 2012 i is simply going up to the next counter level the thing is though that most of their calenders stop at this point probably because it’s easier to wait till a new section appears before adding it on
the calender will look something similar to this in 2012. 0:0:0:0:0:1 or something like that
Because the Maya calendar was long and complicated, it would have to reset then. But our calendar has years of the same length except for leap years every 4 years. And further adjustments are made on a longer time scale. It is kind of a convention and the Maya calculated their year in a much different way, with complex months and stuff so they carried this complex calculation out a long way and finally their calendar would need resetting for complicated reasons. But they never specified an end to the world, only that they would start a new calendar.
On the verge of the second great depression; Iranian nukes, Iran(Hezbolah/Hamas)&Israeli conflict; India&Pakistani conflict; Russia&Georgia conflict; REX 84, King Alfred Plan, FEMA coffins, FEMA camps, secret prisons, Patriot Act, tapping public phones, reading public e-mails, RFID Verichips, XMARK, Mondex, SOMARK tattoos, Operation Urban Warrior, Operation Sudden Impact, MJTF, Project Bluebeam, pretend ‘aliens’, LHC, Operation Mockingbird, Agenda 21, NESARA, entomopters, DARPA monstrosities, Iron Mountain, Denver International Airport Murals, Georgia Guidestones, Bohemian Grove, Real ID, HR 1022, vile Bush executive orders(yes they carry over!) regarding martial law and putting people into work groups, warrantless searches, end of Habeas Corpus, and the rise of a new character called ‘Homegrown Terrorists’ as specified in Senate Bill S.1959 which will be anyone against the North American Union and the New World Order especially Christians! 2012 prophecies from every corner of the globe.
Yes it is true, but it will not be the end of the world.
Some scientists predict that 2012 will be the peak of solar activity , and because the alignment of Saturn, Jupiter and the sun, huge CMEs will have big impact to disturb power systems, communication systems and navigation systems.
The Mayan Long Count calendar doesn’t end any more than our calendar ended on 31st December 2008. It merely clicks over from 12.19.19.17.19 to 13.0.0.0.0 on 21st December 2012. That’s all there is to it. The Mayans themselves never predicted the end of the world would happen at that time.
All the doomsday predictions attached to this date are, without exception, unscientific nonsense, perpetrated by frauds and hoaxers.
And there’s no alignment between Saturn, Jupiter and the Sun.
One cycle of the Mayan calendar ends then, and a new one begins. The Mayan calendar hasn’t been updated since the Mayan civilzation collapsed 800 years ago (before Columbus).
It is grossly irresponsible for a teacher to be teaching nonsense about the end of the world.
Winter solstice 2012 is just the revealing of the ‘antichrist’ or the ‘man of perdition’ at the mid-point of what Christians call the 7 year Tribulation (just subtract 1260 days to get the start and add 1260 days to get the end). Satanists and many pagan cultures from every corner of the world all throughout history have celebrated this like the Sumerians, Babylonians, Cherokee, Hopi, Chinese I-Ching (confirmed by Terence McKenna), Mayans (Pacal Votan; Chilam Balam of Tizimin, Mani, Chumayel; Jaguar Prophet), Egyptians, Celts, etc. This evil event is called “the abomination that causes desolation” that will be set up in the Jewish Temple’s Holy of Holies when the antichrist is imbued with the spirit of satan himself. When will Jesus come? Only God Himself knows exactly, but very soon in “the twinkling of an eye” and like “a thief in the night”. If you believe or not, that is up to you; either way it still comes.

Christians look forward to this as it means they will soon join their Saviour & Redeemer in the Millennial Kingdom of the next Age and their Heavenly Father later as “Children of Light”. If you try to equate 2012 with Y2K or some other date that cried wolf, then you will be making the worst mistake of your lifetime. Research all these things FOR YOURSELF!
Yes it is true. Now you know that you will be incinerated in 2012. It is obvious that people that lived 2000 years ago can plan your departure in three more years.
My advice for you is to bend over and kiss your hind end goodbye when the time comes.
Sure enough does
.
And ya got ta give them credit for it too
.
They did not have to go out and get a new calender every year like we do
/
Now that is some for thought if you ask me
.
here is something that can answer your question
It IS true that the Mayan calendar ends on Dec 21, 2012.
But why is that important? There are no Mayans left to care! All Mayans are gone.
Does their calendar have anything to do with us? No.
The Mayan calendar ends 12/21/12.
They call this the day of the Scarred Tree – the celebration that life always triumphs over death.
It’s not a doomsday.
the Mayan Calendar will end in 2012, but i vry highly doubt that the worlds goin 2 end
Nothing to fear unless you are Mayan.
