Tune into The Discovery Channel tonight at 9pm Eastern Time (U.S.) to see a show titled Apocalypse How, which will examine theories and beliefs regarding the world’s demise.

What does this have to do with Doomsday? Probably nothing, considering the Super Bowl takes place in January/February.

Wow, I didn’t even know a movie was out about the 2012 Apocalypse theories until a few days ago, and I received the 2012: Doomsday in the mail today from my Blockbuster subscription. The movie begins in Mexico, 36 hours prior to the doomsday date of (12/21/2012). I won’t give away any of the plot, I’ll let you watch the movie for yourself, but it does have an angle/agenda, of which I don’t disagree much.

First of all, thanks for stopping by to read my blog. I don’t know how often I’ll update it, but I just wanted it as an outlet to discuss the recent popularity of the “2012 Doomsday” theories.

Personally, I’m not convinced yet. It was just a few years ago that people were concerned about “Y2K” and the havoc it could cause. Of course, it turned out to be insignificant, in that nothing catastrophic happened.

Many various prophesies and ideas about the year 2012 are going around. The Mayan calendar ends on the exact date of December 21, 2012. Some people even say the Bible points toward 2012 as having some sort of catastrophic sun event.

Some people theorize that the events of 2012 will not entirely destroy humankind, as there may be survivors, but the event will bring a new consciousness. Basically, they think that 2012 will be the time that the current era on earth is over. Whether or not we all survive, these thinkers predict that the world as we know it will be changed forever.

So, possibly nothing bad will happen at all, in my opinion. Could all these prophecies simply point to a change for the better of humankind? Could the human race simply become more enlightened by some kind of event that may or may not be cataclysmic?

Anyway, there are many, many theories about what may or may not happen in the year 2012, but that is why I’ve created this blog, so feel free to discuss and post your own comments and ideas about “2012 Doomsday” theories.

My philosophy is that I’m not sure what can be done about the “end of the world”, except to live life and enjoy it, which should be nothing new to anybody. It is interesting to debate and imagine what events may occur in the future, but the 2012 theories are simply guesses, and nobody knows for sure.
