Will someone tell me why this calendar is taken so seriously by so many people? The Mayans may have been great astronomers but that doesn't mean they never churned out bullshit.Some of the Nibiru researchers also cite the prophecies of Edgar Cayce who predicted that we would soon suffer monumental Earth changes and a pole shift, even though he did not attribute them to anything as specific as a visiting planet. And, of course, the much-analyzed Mayan calendar is said to set the "end of world" in December, 2012.

Hmm. ::Looks through site.::
Here, we see them quoting a psychic of all things. A prophesizing one no-less. This should set the BS alarms screaming. And bear in mind that while the Mayans knew quite a bit about mathematics and astronomy, they also lived in a culture thoroughly steeped in mysticism. And the 2012 date just marks the end of the Mayan calendar. We don't know enough about them to really have any clue what significance that had to them.Raving lunatic orbital mind control frisbee conspiracy nuts. wrote: Some of the Nibiru researchers also cite the prophecies of Edgar Cayce who predicted that we would soon suffer monumental Earth changes and a pole shift, even though he did not attribute them to anything as specific as a visiting planet.

Perhaps the forgot the extensive network of amateur astronomers who scan the skies night after night, looking to discover new comets or asteroids.Raving lunatic orbital mind control frisbee conspiracy nuts. wrote: Astronomers and other scientists who would seem to be in a position to know such things have made no announcements about the approach of any planet-sized body. Apparently, they have not detected anything of the kind. Those who believe Nibiru is approaching, however, say that scientists do know all about it and are just covering it up.
Hmmm. Took the poll associated with that story. Here were the results:
Then again, there is that asteroid... *shrugs*Durran Korr wrote:Will someone tell me why this calendar is taken so seriously by so many people?

I don't know why people believe this stuff. It just blows my mind.
