2012 – Don’t Be Afraid. Prepare!
The big hullabaloo from Roland Emmerich’s film 2012, and all the disaster films we’ve been seeing for the last 50-60 years or so is scaring the heck out of viewers. So badly are they scared of the end that they are watching the same movies of disaster, over and over, with different actors, different titles, and different producers – all aimed to scare you and empty your pockets.
The World Isn’t Coming To An End, it’s just scary Hollywood, or Horrorwood – as some label it.
Let’s get real. Let’s discuss some of the issues:
1. Rumor: The World Ends With Planetary Alignment and the repositioning of the Earth along the Galactic Equator …. are they nuts! The phenomena of placement of the stars and galaxies in space is not new. These things all have occurred before, and it wasn’t the end of the world then and it won’t be now. Actually, the date predicted, Winter Solstice, 2012 is not as significant as other astronomical phenomena happening before this. This is just fear-mongering of the formerly unemployed ‘ of the world writers’ with nothing better to do than create movies to scare the smiles off of little kids.
2. There is no Mayan Prophesy says the world is coming to an end. There is no known prophesy that the world is coming to an End and whoever said that should know that it can’t be. The records of the Maya civilization were effectively destroyed, like all other Meso-American histories by the Spanish Conquistadors, who just pillaged the valuables, raped the women and then killed the men and sometimes the women, but not necessary in that order. And, what information that was kept – was kept in secret archives to keep the truth away from the public because it would destroy the Catholic Church. The evidence indicated that the majority of the Meso-American population was, in fact, the lost tribes of Israel. This was written by Franciscan Monks at the time of the invasion, and British and other archeologists later. The actual Mayan Prophesy was simple – ‘Live naturally, in natural time, or your biosphere (Earth – our mother ship) would not survive. We’ll we did it. No lying about that. For the past umpteen years, we have been just like conquerors, raping, murdering, and killing mother earth. OOPS! I didn’t do it – you didn’t do it – the politicians allowed it – all for greed. Oil, Gold, Silver – rape the earth suffers the consequences. The end date of the Mayan Calendar had nothing to do with the end of the planet, it had to do with the end of an era.
2a. Note that when the Earth was first inhabited there was something of a 3 degree axis tilt and the planet was green, and water blue, and life was abundant. What by the name of God have we done to our mother?
2b. We’re at 23 degree wobble now. Yes, something is happening, changes are occurring, but it’s not the end. It scares people to think that changes are coming – people fear change. CHANGE IS GOOD!
2c. Do you think that people will die? Of course, people are already dying. Yes, we’ve burned fossil fuels, destroyed our air, cut down our forests, created deserts where there were none before and previously the planet cleansed itself with great floods. People are dying, we are more aware since Hurricane Katrina, that things are not right due to global warming, and Tsunamis, great floods, and thousands more deaths in countries where floods were a rarity.
