So is shit going down?

[Coelho]

The Myan calendar is more accurate than our atomic clocks

Well... The "usual" cesium atomic clocks can count time with precision of 1/9,000,000,000 second... how could the Mayans have a more precise measurement of time?

Also, around 2012 the magnetic poles are set to reverse. During this time there will be crazy storms and tsunamis and earthquakes, etc.

Well... the magnetic poles reversion is a thing that actually happens, but it takes (at very least) thousands of years... so, as today the north is in the north, it would be very hard to it change until 2012... and even if it happened, how it would cause storms and earthquakes, and tsunamis? The air, the water and the earth (with exception of some rocks) are not magnetic, so they dont feel the influence of the magnetic field, and for they the direction of the north is irrelevant.

Also, there is a family of asteroids that remain in an orbit safe from us.. usually. Recently, ever so slight atmospheric temperature increases are causing these orbits to slowly shift towards us.

Well... the only thing that can influence asteroids (as well as planets, comets, etc) orbits is the gravity. How an increase in earth atmospheres temperature could change earths gravity?

I think you are watching too much TV... and its not good for anybody... specially if you dont filter what they say... i remember watching a "documentary" on Discovery Channel trying to prove how dragons could actually have existed, and how they actually could breathe fire... but being a scientist myself, i thought their "scientific explanations" of how it could be rather lame...

I did read about the Mayan calendar, and the only sure thing is that in Dec 21 2012 the date when written in the Mayan notation will be 13.0.0.0.0. So, i think it may be a bit like that old fears that the world would end in the year 2000... also the ones who studied Mayan prophecies said that there was dates beyond this one, so that wouldnt be the end of the world.

Personally, i think it may happen some bad thing at this date... but it is because of how the world is going on right now.

So we will smoke lots of cannabis and be happy and think we are going to heaven in 2012!

Well... dont misunderstand my theory... just thinking with the physical brain that youre going to heaven wont take you there... the physical consciousness (the one we usually use when awake) is the first to be lost when the body dies... you only could go to the "heaven" if your innerest self (what some would call "soul") were ready, in peace... as it is this innerest self that ultimately controls our actions, thoughts, feelings, or resuming, what we are. And it is the innerest self with is faced with us during some alterated states of consciousness, so you know how it can be...

I am inviting myself to join you, Coelho.... hide somewhere in a mountain cave, grow lots of veggies, potatoes, and cannabis!

You are welcome! :thumbsup: only remember to bring some seeds of the BEST weed you can... cause the weed here is not so good... :stoned::rastasmoke::jointsmile:
