| I doubt this will happen. What if the Mayans just ran out of rocks and didnt feel like getting more to write with? Hardest questions have the simplest answers. |

| The Earth has always been subject to impacts by comets and asteroids, although big hits are very rare. The last big impact was 65 million years ago, and that led to the extinction of the dinosaurs. Today NASA astronomers are carrying out a survey called the Spaceguard Survey to find any large near-Earth asteroids long before they hit. We have already determined that there are no threatening asteroids as large as the one that killed the dinosaurs. All this work is done openly with the discoveries posted every day on the NASA NEO Program Office website (neo.jpl.nasa.gov), so you can see for yourself that nothing is predicted to hit in 2012. |

It had been over 2 months since the last message. Although the Spaceguard Survey was interesting information, why did you feel like posting a new reply to this suddenly?  |

It might happen, it might not. Chances are, if the world is going to end in the next 5 years, there's just as big a chance of it happening on December 21, 2012, as if it were to happen on any other day.
But scientists have found no evidence to conclude that anything apocalyptic will happen on that day, so I don't see how the Mayans could have seen it 600 years in advance.

| Yeah that is the way i look at it. If scientists can find any evidence then what reason do i have not to believe them? |

You could try Google Translate, but I'm not sure it translates gibberish though.
