Many of us have seen the movie, "2012", however my question is: What do you think will happen in 2012? Do you believe that something might happen to earth, that maybe a meteorite might hit the earth, or maybe massive earthquakes happen causing severe tsunamis. If possible, I would like you to answer in the way of how you truly believe wheather or not something will happen in 2012 and not direct answers referring to do "2012" film.

I sometimes wish that something would happen. I am quite happy with life but sometimes think that we have made such a mess of this planet that mother nature should take back control. People are not nice to each other, animals are driven to extinction....why? Greed & money. There are many people with kind hearts who do what they can to save the planet, save animals, save children but really, we should all be doing it. Maybe a disaster would make us realise how small and insignificant we are on this vast planet.

Hi, billi65. Well in that case, God should get rid of all of the bad and evil people that are doing all these bad things. The good people should be allowed to stay or remain on earth. I know that this may not be possible but it would be fair. The good should not have to suffer for someone else's wrongdoing.

Very good point. I, for one, agree with the fact that most people on this earth ruin it by not taking care of it and being greedy for money and power. Over these last years, many people have been stepping up to talk against the destruction of mother nature and how, for example, finding alternative resources for fuel will stop the coal burning and reduce pollutants. Every year, bad things happen around the world. Floods, Mudslides, Earth quakes, Erupting volcanoes. These are all signes of mother nature's rejection to the quickly developing society of Earth. For all we know, like you mentioned, a great disaster might strike us and reform the earth. But the thing is, You'll never know what will happen and until then you can only hope for the best.

As far as the concept behind '2012' goes, i am not sure. I believe that with all this pollution, something is bound, maybe not as severe as killing all the human race but yeh. I have done my own researching about 2012 and the only prophecy i believe in is in the Mayan Calender. However if a change does happen i don't expect it to be a pinpoint date on 21/12/2012. I have always been sceptical about these things, but i believe that what happens, will / would have happened for a reason.

Yes most defenetly. The only reason that this would happen, if it happend at all, would be because of the environmental destruction here on earth. Pollution, deforestation, sewage plants and so on. As for the mayan calender, no one can really say that it's real and everything mentioned is going to become true. Also, if this thing does happen, it will most probably wipe out all the human race because it is surely going to be destructive.

Hi borg, The world will not end in 2012. Having said that I believe that many changes are coming in fact have already started. I feel that we are in a time that is seeing great climate change which will only get worse over the next couple of years. Things will not return to the way they were before this recession either, but hopefully we will learn from it. I believe that change is needed and eventually we will have a much better society. Blessings.

Very interesting answer Pose. It's good to hear different aspects of this topics as everyone has differen oppinion about 2012. Seeing as the world's waters are rising every year, I must say that something is bound to happen. Maybe not a real big thing like shown in the movie, but something will most defenetly happen. I suppose the only thing to do now is obviously wait for some other responses :) And wait for time to tell.

I don't believe anything would happen in 2012, it is just a movie that somebody thought up and wrote the script. I is just a figment of someones imagination.

I thank you for your response. As I might has said above, it's good to see different aspects relating this topic. Most of the movie may be false but in my view, with most people saying that something is going to happen makes it hard to agree with them. However, it might be, as you said, that absolutely nothing will happen and we will continue living our lives as normal. But surely, with all the pollution, ice caps melting, global warming, don't you think that at least something might happen?

I agree with the first poster on this. How would a load of pretty uneducated people in today's standards have any idea of what will happen in millions of years? It makes no real sense at all, they would if anything simply be making guesses based on what they may think will happen. They had no scientific proof of this. Neither did they have the knowledge of any effect the earth will go under after their time. Quite simply I don't understand why a calendar ending causes all this fuss? They couldn't keep making calendars!

I don't think anything special will happen that year, its almost the same thing they said about the year 2000 and nothing special happend. Its just the planets aligning is what i heard, in hollywood though that year, they'll probablly make all kinds of movies about events that they think will happend that year, its just another year, which is supposed to be the end of the mayon or however you spell it calendar.

with the way we treat mother nature, even if it's not 2012 yet, it could possibly happen! we have done great damages on earth and i'm sure you'll agree with me if i say that there are more damages to come. sadly, we were given knowledge to preserve the beauty of it but we people doesn't seem to care. in the end, it will be us who'll suffer on the consequence of our work.

Hi, borg246. I have not seen this movie, "2012". But, I have seen the movie, "Knowing".. This was very scary. I don't believe that the world will end in 2012. I feel that we will all be here. No one knows when the world will end, not even Jesus Himself.

i think that 2012 its a invention of some oane to start a panic in the world and the motivesion that the people to stop making chilrdren becouse nobody wants to bringe a baby on earth when they know that in 2 years he is going to die like al others it's just like the invention of aids the disease that was created to reduce the number of people on earth so that other could survive

I don't think anything surprising will hit the earth on 2012. I;m Christian, and the signs of the end of the world as stated in the Bible, are not jet fulfilled either, so don't worry. But I would worry because of this global warming problem. In 3 years if all of earth's residence don't act wisely then disasters are bound to come slowly. In my country, the temperature is already increasing every year and landslides are everywhere because people are cutting down trees. The long drought brought in no crops. there's famine everywhere. So that's why I now use water wisely, less plastic bags, plant trees.

nothing will happen on this that will change the earth on the year 2012. the only thing is that there is will be more pollution than before. other than that you will have your normal problems (natural disasters) from time to time.

I have seen 2012 but I doubt that would happen due to the fact that pole shifts take thousands of years to see the full effects right now I am sure we are going through a pole shift I am very sure of this. I do believe that something big will occur in my lifetime I just dont know what that is yet but I think it will be a change for the better.
