Doomsday 2012: The End Of Days

EXCELLENT SOURCE
Do not expect any "evidence of disastrous consequences" as the previous reviewer did - take this documentary at face value - please read the Editorial Review.

I personally believe that the History Channel has done an outstanding job delivering this documentary - it is quite remarkable to cover so many topics within only 50 minutes, including the predictions of the Mayan Civilization, the medieval predictions of Merlin, the Book of Revelations, the Chinese oracle of the I Ching, a web-bot crawling the internet to predict the future, balanced analysis of doomsday predictions by respected scholars, views of skeptics, etc.

This is a brief historical overview of available informational materials such as predictions about a possibility of a "doomsday" in December of 2012. Please do not expect any miracles from a 50-minute DVD, yet it is an excellent source to provide you with the topics for a further research, if you are interested in researching and studying this...

"Coincidence Or Prophecy" ~ Is Time Running Out?
While I have been disappointed numerous times in History Channel presentations that is definitely not the case with 'Decoding the Past, Doomsday 2021: The End of Days.' The prophetic material presented in this End of the World hypothesis covers a wide range of cultural scenarios and periods of time that all point to the date 12/21/12. Some of the sources investigated are: The Mayan Calendar, the Bible, the I Ching, Classic oracles (Delphi, Sybil of Rome), Prophecies of Merlin and Mother Shipton, the visions of Black Elk and Hopi materials. Even the great Albert Einstein and cult figure Terence McKenna entered into the discussion. For me personally the most unnerving of all is the material concerning the use of modern day internet technology in the 1990's Web-Bot Project designed to "read the unconscious mood of the world." Like the Mayan Calendar, the I Ching and other sources even this sophisticated technology also points to unimaginable catastrophic events in 2012. It's an...

Voodoo TV
"Doomsday 2012" focuses on several "oracles" that supposedly predict doomsday in 2012, including the Mayan calendar (12/21/12), a web-bot program created to predict stock prices, and with less specificity, an ancient oracle (Sibyl) and I Ching (2,800 B.C. book interpreted in recent years). The Bible's Book of Revelations is also briefly covered, but experts seem to believe that its timing targeted the reign or personage of Nero.

A few esoteric explanations are offered for these insights from oracles - eg. breathing ethylene gas trapped from a long-ago earthquake, etc. More credible explanations focus on the vagueness of most of these predictions. Unfortunately, "Doomsday 2012" does not assess the specificity (credibility) of these claims, so viewers are simply left wondering.

Climate change, potential shifting of the earth's magnetic poles are possible - at any time. However, no evidence was offered of the likelihood of disastrous consequences occurring from...
