i cannot say yes, nor i can say no. prophecy of world going to and end is inevitable. the world will end. but as to who knows the end of it, only God knows. we can always predict from the signs we get of our times but it will never be absolute. so i'm keeping my faith

I think climate change is a part of science. There is no argument among scientists that the Mayan displayed incredible mathematical and astronomical knowledge. They were experts. They were meticulous.

They were so meticulous that using their calendar data, the solar year is computed to be 365.242306 days long. The Gregorian calendar computes our solar year to be 365.2525 days long. The Mayan appear to be much more precise and accurate than modern man is.

Dr. Dennis F. Bartels, an anthropologist and astronomer, takes a more liberal view than most of his colleagues. He does not claim to predict some cataclysmic event. He does warn that to toss away thousands of years of Mayan mathematics and astronomy without some careful thought may be an arrogant blunder.

On the other hand, Johan Normark a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Archaeology and Classical Studies at Stockholm University, views all Mayan prophetic claims as sheer nonsense.

Another scientific fact, the end of the Mayan calendar, December 21, 2012, lands on the day of the winter solstice. On that day, our Sun aligns itself with the center of the Milky Way, our galaxy.

Prophecy is NOT science.
