That would suck though, right before Christmas.
Oh well, hopefully there's a huge party on the 20th:D |

I don't doubt their amazing abilities as astronomers, but I still beleive they still can't come close to ours. And you speak as if they were the only ancient civilization to have knowledge of the stars. What about the Greeks? Hipparchus Estimated the distance to the moon with incredible accuracy over 2000 years ago. Or how about the Egyptians? In the 3rd century BC, Eratosthenes measured the circumference and the radius of the Earth and was off by only a few percent.
Two other planets? One past pluto and one before Mercury? You'd think these would have been found by now, or at least there would be mounting evidence for them. Extra planets would tug on other planets with their gravity (this is how either Uranus or Neptune were discovered, if not both of them). The planets are exactly where we expect them to be. We've sent probes millions of miles to these planets and they've arrived exactly where they should be. I don't see how these two planets are "highly suspected to exist," especially since I've never heard a single thing about them before now (except for crackpot theories about Niburu which we already know are bunk). I'd like to see some serious evidence.
A pole shift that started in 2000, and will be complete in 2012? That means we're already 1/3 done with it. You would think there would be some SERIOUSLY noticible effects from this incredibly quick shift? Never mind that 12 years is less than a geological nano second. It would be like a healthy person growing a tumor and dying within the span of 2 seconds. By the way, whoever wrote that website you're talking about (the first result from your google search) is smoking some seriously spectacular crack. "Timecraft Earth will begin its journey into the 4th dimension in 2013?" Riiiiiiiiiiiight........
Something else I was thinking about while I was eating, you're talking as if this pass through the "galactic center" was a unique event, when in fact it happens every 26,000 years. So, on a cosmic scale of things, its about as common and frequent as the planet spinning, or circling the sun every year. The Earth alone has done so 153,846 times. If this were truly a quantum-physical changing event every time it happened, then there wouldn't be a lot of life here on Earth (it wouldn't even have had the chance to evolve). Hell, Homo Sapiens have been around for 5 of these passes. There is nothing in our fossil or geological record to indicate cataclysmic events every 26,000 years.
Try arguging your case with some credible evidence from a credible source backing it. |
calm down there killer :whip:
and there is strong evidence that these planets do exist. Go look that up.
And I think 26k years is alot of years.
And out of all the ancient civilizations. I'm pretty sure mayans were the best. |

Actually they are myths. The planet X doomsday myth was simply a hoax generated from photos taken of comet NEAT by the SOHO satellite. In reality it was not a planet but a comet, and it did not come closer than 75 million miles from the Earth. Hardly close enough to do anything.

As for the planet in between Mercury and the Sun, that myth died out in 1915 with Einstein's theory of relativitey. It was originally theorized in 1859 when Mercury's orbital path could not be predicted by classical mechanics used at the time. Therefore some thought there existed another planet in between Mercury and the Sun, planet Vulcan, to explain the gravitational discrepancy. When Einstein presented the theory of relativitey however, it became clear tha the orbital discrepancies were as a result of the Sun's gravitational field. There may be small objects less than 60km in size in an asteroid belt around the sun, however certainly nothing that could even be considered a planetoid much less a planet in size. If there were, a) we would be able to detect its gravitational effects on other bodies, and b) the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory orbiting the sun would have imaged it by now.

As for a reversal of the Earth's magnetic field, that is actually a scientific reality, and quite possible sometime in the next several centuries/millenia. However, such behaviour is quite common geologically speaking and the Earth has gone through several magnetic field reversals in its history. Bear in mind that this is merely a FLIP of the magnetic field, it is not a severe weakening or disappearence of the magnetic field and therefore the only impact upon us would be a compass pointing south instead of North. To eliminate the magnetic field in its entirety you would have to find some way to stop the flow of iron in the Earth's core.

We should inform the biggest party organization in the world to throw a HUUUUGEE rave on the last night.
I'd go! |

Overhyped much like Y2K and the "Apocalypse". :rolleyes: |
The mayans had prophesied this long before any fears of Y2K or even before the christians had their fears of the "Apocalypse" |

uhm.... so? Just because one came before the other doesn't make it any more valid. |

| Damn it, occrider, you always beat me to it! |

to be fair, the only reason y2k didnt happen is because there were so many measures put in place to stop it.
and christianity is a just . |

Don't even waste time beleiving it. Throughly disproven:
http://www.awitness.org/essays/bibcode.html
If you don't want to read that whole page I'll sum it up for you. Basically, the method by which they find "bible codes" is so vague and follows such an erratic pattern, that theres literally trillions of possible word arrangements in a book the size of the bible, thus its no fantastic feat that you'd find some of those words together.
Using the same method the bible codes were found, this webpage finds dozens of successfully predicted assassinations and deaths of famous people in Moby Dick and War and Peace, that get it right down to the day, the name of the person shot, and more often than not, a lot of little details, like how he was killed, by whom, etc. Theres even an INCREDIBLE code of Princess Diana's death which includes the name of her boyfriend Dodi, and their driver Henri Paul. It also mentions how she was riding on a "toll road" (true) and the word "skid" (also true). It even says she was the "last mortal in these jaws of death" (also very true, she was the only one alive for a breif time when they got to the accident scene).
I mean I don't know how you could beleive them to start with. Have you SEEN the "patterns" they find in the book? Its absurd? You'd think if there was some profound code in the book it would have a consistant, regular pattern by which it's read.
Not to mention if you displace ONE SINGLE LETTER, every single code in the book becomes ruined. So if someone decided to spell "color" as "colour," then whoops! No more code! Or if someone used "ass" instead of "donkey," no more code. Any single change in grammer, just one letter taken away or added, and its all bunk. Of course there would be a whole new set of "codes" in its place that people would be claiming just as miraculous. :rolleyes: |
