It was a strange collision. After one comet was heading here another came by and crashed. Then an asteroid from the crash is taking the comets place to head here.

It didn't happen. It couldn't have happened. I don't know where you heard such a preposterous story.

Yeah Eddy, you gotta learn to take what you hear with a grain of salt. You seem to hear a lot of things. Nothing wrong with hearing them, of course, but you have to judge for yourself too. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. The only comet I worry about is the one under my bathroom sink giving me internal poisoning in case I do something very careless.

There was 8P/Tuttle a couple of years ago, but I don't recall anyone saying it was a threat in any way...

Mankind will eventually make the earth to toxic to live in, the end.

I saw something last night. More like a blue light moving across the sky with a tail. Does that explain anything?

G'haa. I so want to add to this topic. >.< It won't do me any good though. It's like, I want you to know, but I can't tell you. (No wonder there's a Facebook group devoted to that. ) I already feel that to post in this topic marks a person as crazy, and I already make the crazies look normal and dull by comparison as it is. Especially if I say what's on my mind. But as a skeptic and scientist at heart, I wouldn't bother saying anything unless I thought there was something to it. I could care less if a meteor hits the earth and destroys everything. At least science has an obvious backing for that. This, on the other hand, is just plain bizarre. It'd be one thing if I were hypothesizing about it based on external experience, but I've been placed smack-dab in the middle of everything and have gone through many of the signs myself, as have my closest friends before they even knew others were going through it. So there's no way they could have known something was up. It's not selective confirmation bias due to the abnormality of the incident based on each individual's normal physiology, and that everyone else has it too without the others knowing about it.

I will continue if you press me for it, but I don't know how well it'll be accepted. Hence my hesitation to continue.

Has anyone heard of the story of Nibiru? (Planet X)
People say in 2012, Nibiru is going to pass our orbit, making chaos to our planet. It has a 3600 year orbit. Right now it completed 3598 years of its orbit.

Shadow Tiger, if you have something to contribute to the topic, why not? Nobody will stigmatize you for it. If you're thinking about something, it doesn't mark you as paranoid, especially when you recognize that.

It could have been any number of things. People always ask about things they've seen in the sky. The fact is, there are countless things both terrestrial and in space that an untrained eye would not be able to identify. Just saying "a blue light" or "moving across the sky" hardly narrows it down. All you've told us so far is that it wasn't a comet, planet, or star, because none of those have any apparent motion. It doesn't explain anything, really.

No more Nibiru bull****, please. It's a sore subject, and it's not worth explaining for the umpteenth time how much garbage it is.

Wow. This is kind of weird. The post keeps getting messed up (In any browser, no less.) It's like, when the second half of my post (The second bulleted list and beyond.) is processed, the entire post gets deleted. Weird. I guess I'll have to upload it to a .txt document or something.

There can be anything to destroy the world. The most proved end of the world is when the Sun explodes.

I don't think it's going to hapnen any time soon.

People who think the world's gonna end in 2012 just gets me P.O.ed

It was slightly less annoying prior to the movie.

Anyway, I think if things keep going the way they are, we'll reach a point where we're wishing for the end of the world, but it won't come.

Cuz I'm praying for rain
And I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way.
I wanna watch it all go down.
Mom please flush it all away.
I wanna see it go right in and down.
I wanna watch it go right in.
Watch you flush it all away.


Also, I know this thread's been around for quite a while, but wouldn't it be better suited for General Discussion?

If the universe had a beginning, then it shall have an end. Nobody but God knows how it will end. So go on with your lives and stop worrying. The fact there are so many theories, should help you sleep at night knowing that nobody has it figured out.

[Eddy]

I think the Universe never had a beginning.. Anyone heard of the Pre-existing universe? The Big Bounce?

Seriously though, I don't believe any of the 2012 theories, and I also don't believe it will end anytime soon.
