So... how do you know they didn't predict their own demise? Or are you just assuming that if they predicted it they would have stopped it? | ||

This would put us closer to about 1700 AD in real time, meaning we won't have to worry about any Mayan predictions for quite some time to come. Ummm... do you have a source? this sounds interesting but I highly doubt its even true | ||

What do you mean by "our history"? Are you saying that Mayan historical time is not consistent with european historical time? Are you saying that a bunch of people wrote about a bunch of stuff that never happened? (You can't fake pre-historical time since our knowledge of this period is all based on concrete evidence). Look, the entire notion that our timeline should somehow be skewed is just preposterous, and once you know anything about history and how it is written you'll realize that it simply does not make sense. Also, doomsday predictions have been around forever and they have always, and will always, be wrong. Pretty much the only way I see humanity coming to an end within the next billion years is if a bunch of aliens randomly decide to exist and that blowing up Earth would be a good idea. Which of course will not happen | ||

Seriously, it is the rogue regimes with nukes that will cause the end of humanity. | ||

It would be the answer of the Superpowers to this Rogue regimes that would end the world as we know it, the rogue regimes themselves are not capable of that. | ||

Nah, the moment Iran or NK fires a nuclear missile at anyone, the US and others will turn their entire country into a nuclear wasteland. At best you'd lose a few cities who were attacked first + agressor country. End of humanity requires two superpowers going balls out. Or the end of the Maya calender obviously | ||

I wish i could feel like john on this about the gravity of this sistuation... http://tpmlivewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/11/jon-stewart-its-a-missile-a-sky-c-an-airplane.php but i read the first reports out of San diego where they air the story first on tues. and the formor Departnmet of defense guy expalined that it looked like a larger rocket (with a large con trail)which i would assume needes to be fire from land due th ethe reason above. the fact that the estamte the rocket to be about 35 miles off LA some location as a us military isand(san Niclous Island) which i hear is frequently bombed. compare size of trail and type of missle they have gotten very soficated in recent years and i dout seeing some new jump in techonilg in this area.here are more links to back up my theory i am not certan of anything just noticing waht i can smell ut from all the bull shit they are spreading so enjoy your time with the people around who knows what the furture will bring so what a old clander says.

I can hardly see Russia blow up more than chechenia and maybe Ukraine,....i can see USA blowing up everything though. But there are still more chances than Russia will nuke the shit out of chechenia before US make a move on the entire world :o | ||

Why would Russia want to blow up Ukraine? Or why would they blow up Chechnya? Chechnya is part of Russia and i hardly believe a country will fire nuclear missiles onto muslim extremists inside their own country. Your claims are retarded. And what do you mean by ''hardly see Russia blow up more then Chechenia and maybe Ukraine,.... i can see USA blowing up everything though'' Do you think Russia doesn't have enough firepower?? Or are you claiming America is gonna blow up everything because they are reckless..? | ||

Or are you claiming America is gonna blow up everything because they are reckless..? I agree on the Chechnya part,it's unlikely they nuke it,just carpet bomb it to the ground.(wait theyre already doing it  )Russian have very tense relations with ex USSR members,and they had a big problem with Ukraine 2-3 years ago if i remember correctly about gazprom and gaz being delivered to Ukraine.The tension was so high that at some point Ukraine turned to EU(and US i think)for *military support* if it was to go to another level,to which everybody answered:fu were not going to war with Russia over a shitty country like yours(or something in those lines) and forced Ukraine to agree with Russia and pay shitload of money for gaz they maybe never had. Russia was also pretty angry with Ukraine wanting to join the NATO a while ago.I think Ukraine was pretty much the center of the US anti-missile shield in Europe,which pissed off the russians even more. Russia has almost double of US nukes,so the firepower is on their side;) As for the US part,sure theyre not going to blow up something in the next 5 years.....wait til meatheads come to Washington,China takes world lead and expect a very agressive response from the US;) | ||
