The official start of Winter, and shortest daylight of the year. I live in Alaska, but not far enough North to have perpetual night during the winter. Here in Ketchikan, our official times for today are 8:25 AM for sunrise, and 3:31 PM for sunset. That's still 7 hours 6 minutes of daylight. Fairly dim daylight, but daylight all the same.
Oh, and if you believe such things, it is exactly 4 years until Armageddon. The Apocalypse. Judgment Day. The End Of Days. Doomsday. Whatever you want to call the end of the world. Some people believe it will be the Second Coming of Christ and shall mark the biblical end of all things. Whatever...
Why do people believe this? Because the Mayan calendar (one of the most accurate in the world) comes to a sudden end on the winter solstice of 2012. There are ancient Greek prophecies that vaguely refer to the end or the world around that time. There's even some Chinese book that says the winter solstice of 2012 will be the end. Hell, even the internet (Web Bot Project) says it will be the end. And let's not forget our friend the Large Hadron Collider, perhaps that's the day it finally destroys the Earth.
Here's a multi-part YouTube video telling all about it:
December 21 2012 the END? (Part 1 of 6).
December 21 2012 the END? (Part 2 of 6).
December 21 2012 the END? (Part 3 of 6).
December 21 2012 the END? (Part 4 of 6).
Dec 21, 2012 - End of the World? - Part 5 of 6, Part 6 - N.A
The person that posted this says Part 6 will come in 2012, as the news reports the end of the world... *cue dramatic, ominous music* Dun dun, dun...
Sound familiar? (Y2K anyone?)

People believe in weird things. I don't think it'll be the end.
ReplyDelete@ Berni: I don't think it will, either.
ReplyDeletePlanet X (Nibiru) is said to be in a collision course to Earth on this day. It will cause Earthquakes, Volcano eruptions, Extreme winters, extreme summers, and much more. This planet is a firey ball of hydrogen and makes it's orbit around the sun every 3600 years or so. If it already says this in the video, then don't blame me, I'm commenting here from a school computer, and it cant view internet videos. Anyway, if this does happen, I don't think that it will be the second comming of Christ. I just think that it will be yet another challenge among the human race from God to learn the rules of survival. I personally think that if Obama screws up the world enough, A new president will be elected and he or she will not be responsible enough to run the world. (let's be serious, the president of the United States doesn't run just Anerica, he or she runs the world) Anyway the new president will screw up the world so bad that mabye Christ will come to Earth and it will be the end. That is my opinion of December 2012
ReplyDeleteAnother comment that I forgot to put. Norway is building underground tunnels in case this disaster does happen. Two good videos to watch over this case is the movie "Impact", and on Youtube, search "Nibirushock2012" and watch his most viewed video.
ReplyDelete@ Jacob: In December 2012 Obama will still be in office. Inauguration Day isn't until January 20th 2013.
ReplyDeleteSure, why not throw in Nibiru as well? (This is the first I've heard of it.) Combined with crossing the galactic plain and everything else, we've got one hell of a Y2K12 conspiracy going!
