Daniel Akill-Attieh's Blog | 356: TRUE OR FALSE, BUT BELIEVE IT OR NOT: 8 INDICATIONS THE WORLD WILL END IN 2012

Dear Readers and Fellow-Apes; 2008 was a Murky and Hapless Year! Let us hope that 2009 does not turn out to be even More Murky and Hapless!

I intentionally did not wish you a Merry Christmas, because Christmas is another story for another Posting at another time; and I do not wish you a Happy New Year, since I believe that ONLY FOOLS ARE, OR CAN BE, HAPPY ALL YEAR ROUND. I do, however, wish all of you A GOOD YEAR! With a little Good in one's life, one can be a little happy, which is all one can ask for in one's short sweet dream one calls a life-time. BY GOD AND SATAN!

A Jack of many trades and master of all; I am honest to the core and I hate lies, deceits, pretensions, hypocrisy, treachery, betrayal, and stoic compliance; and I despise – and actually pity – Human-Apes who follow-the-herd-or-pack

I expose and reveal the lies, deceits, pretensions, hypocrisy, treachery, betrayal, and blind, deaf, and stoic compliance, and Human-Apes who follow-the-herd-or-pack; I tell or write the truth; and I say what I mean and mean what I say

I fear nothing; least of all, death

If I must fear anything at all in life, then let me fear what I think and know of myself; because, in the end, one’s knowledge and opinion of oneself is what counts most. All the world may think and believe one is such and such, but one knows one is such and such. Also, I like to look in the mirror and like what I see and know about me.

I invite comments, remarks, criticisms, and even insults – so long as they are straight to the point, in order for me to correct or adjust myself accordingly. What I do not welcome and won’t accept or tolerate is HORSE-SHIT!

Dear readers and felow-Apes; with every page, every report or article, every paragraph, every sentence, every word, and every letter; I thank you for taking the trouble and the time to read My Not-So-Humble Comments.

356: TRUE OR FALSE, BUT BELIEVE IT OR NOT: 8 INDICATIONS THE WORLD WILL END IN 2012

TRUE OR FALSE, BUT BELIEVE IT OR NOT: 8 INDICATIONS THE WORLD WILL END IN 2012

Scientific experts from around the world have genuinely predicted that a few years from now, all life on Earth could well end. Some have said it'll be humans that set it off. Others believe that a natural phenomenon will be the cause; but the religious fanatics say it'll be God himself who presses the stop button – Daniel: If non-existent God could press any buttons, he would have done it aeons ago; from the moment that non-existent Eve ate the non-existent apple, and later tempted non-existent Adam to eat it, too; and saved us all the pother and humbug of living on this tiny sorry dot in awesome space. Actually, I have always wondered how both Eve and Adam could eat the apple. She must have plucked another one and given it to him – no wonder women are smarter than men!

BY NON-EXISTENT GOD!

1. Mayan Calendar

The first mob to predict 2012 as the end of the world were the Mayans, a blood-thirsty race that were good at two things: Building highly accurate astrological constructions out of stone, and sacrificing Virgins. They managed to calculate the period of the lunar moon as 329.53020 days thousands of years ago; only 34 seconds out – and with no scientific instruments, too. The Mayan Calendar predicts the world will end on 21^st December 2012. Given the fact that they were pretty close – too close – to the mark with the lunar cycle, it's likely they've got the end of the world right as well – only 34 hours out?

2. Sun Storms

Solar experts from around the world monitoring the sun have made a startling discovery: our sun is in a bit of strife. The energy output of the sun is, like most things in nature, cyclic, and it's supposed to be in the middle of a period of relative stability. However, recent solar storms have been bombarding the Earth with so much radiation energy; it's been knocking out power grids and destroying satellites. This activity is predicted to get worse, and calculations suggest it'll reach its deadly peak sometime in 2012.

3. The Atom-Pulverizing Tunnel

Scientists in Europe have been building the world's largest particle accelerator. Basically it’s a 27km tunnel designed to smash atoms together to find out what makes the Universe tick. However, the mega-construction has caused serious concern, with some scientists suggesting that it's probably a bad idea to turn it on in the first place. They have predicted all manner of deadly results, including mini black holes. So when this machine is fired up for its first serious experiment in 2012, the world could be crushed into a super-dense blob the size of a basketball.

4. Religious Prophesies

As if having scientists warning us about the end of the world isn't bad enough; religious folks are getting in on the act as well. Interpretations of the Christian Bible reveal that the date for Armageddon, the final battle between Good an Evil, has been set down for 2012.

The I-Ching, also known as the Chinese book of Changes, says the same thing; and so do various sections of Hindu teachings.

The I Ching has been used for more than 5000 years as an aid to making decisions and predicting the future, etc. So, if nothing else, it is a long-standing and popular source of wisdom, knowledge, and inspiration.

5. Super Volcano

Yellowstone National Park in the United States is famous for its thermal springs and the Old Faithful geyser. The reason for this is simple; it's sitting on top of the world's biggest volcano, and geological experts are beginning to get nervous sweats. The Yellowstone Volcano has a pattern of erupting every 650,000 years or so, and we're many years overdue for an explosion that will fill the atmosphere with ash, blocking the sun, and plunging the Earth into a frozen winter-night that could last up to 15,000 years. The pressure under Yellowstone is building steadily, and geologists have set 2012 as a likely date for the big bang.

6. Prediction by Physicists

This is a typical case of simple mathematics. Physicists at Berkley University have been crunching numbers, and they've determined that the Earth is long overdue for a major catastrophic event. Even worse, they claim their calculations prove that we're all going to die very soon. They also claim their prediction comes with a certainty of 99%; and 2012 just happens to be the best guess as to when it will occur

7. Gamma Rays and Swing Low, Swing Softly, Gently, and Subtly

We all know the Earth is surrounded by a magnetic field that shields us from most of the sun's radiation. What you might not know is that the magnetic poles we call north and south have a nasty habit of swapping places every 750,000 years or so – and right now we're about 30,000 years overdue. Scientists have noted that the poles are drifting apart, roughly 20-30kms each year, much faster than ever before, which points to a pole-shift right round the corner. While the pole shift is underway, the magnetic field will be disrupted and will eventually disappear, possibly for up to 100 years. The result is enough Ultra-Violet Rays outdoors to burn skins to a crisp in seconds; killing everything.

In a few major bursts, the sun produces gamma rays with energies of up to a million electron volts. The interaction of high-energy electrons, protons, and nuclei of the sun, emit the rays. Gamma rays can also come from the sun and other stars in space, through the creation and death of stars along with the creation of solar flares. Astronomers have studied gamma rays to gain a better understanding of the astronomical process. To collect these waves, astronomers installed optical collectors with wide apertures at the Whipple Observatory. Gamma rays are a form of electro-magnetic radiation similar to x-rays. Gamma rays may carry millions of electron volts. As gamma rays pass through matter, they lose energy, but at the same time, knock electrons loose from the atom which ionizes them. Uranium and other naturally occurring radio-active elements, which emit alpha and beta particles from their nuclei while transforming into new elements, also emit gamma rays. Gamma-ray bursts can release more energy in 10 seconds than the Sun emits in its entire 10 billion-year lifetime! So far, it appears that all of the bursts that have been observed come from outside the Milky Way Galaxy. Scientists believe that a gamma-ray burst will occur once every few million years here in the Milky Way, and in fact may occur once every several hundred million years within a few thousand light-years of Earth. Studied for over 25 years now with instruments on board a variety of satellites and space probes, including the Soviet Venera spacecraft and the Pioneer Venus Orbiter, the sources of these enigmatic high-energy flashes remain a mystery. By solving the mystery of gamma-ray bursts, scientists hope to gain further knowledge of the origins of the Universe, the rate at which the Universe is expanding, and the size of the Universe.

8. An Un-invited Un-welcome and Un-wanted Visitor from Outer Space

An Asteroid – 7 miles long and 3.5 mile wide – could be, is actually, approaching the Earth even as the Mad-Zealots and Fanatics bray and bark and fart, and Human-Apes do nothing but grasp and fight over inane and banal trivialities. In 2012, you ask? Well, only they – the scientists – know, but I say: Why not? 2012 is as a good a year for it as any other year. This is not the sort of thing that scientists like to hide, but it is exactly the sort of thing that world leaders and politicians like to hide. Think of the sort of panic it would cause – Human-Apes are mad, vicious, and cruel enough as they are now!

Daniel: A burst of gamma rays hitting the earth would mean the end, but it would be quick and merciful; and an asteroid of such dimensions hitting the earth – wherever at all – would mean the end as well, but it would be quick and merciful only for those close to the point of impact, and slow and painful for the rest of all life-forms.

So – dear readers and fellow-Apes – someone, or some people, ought to warn Osama Bin Ladin and all the other Mad-Zealots and Fanatics to leave the West alone and to treat them with more respect and courtesy, because they are Man-the-Ape’s only hope for survival, since only their scientists could possibly discover a solution or solutions to all of the above formidable threats to life on earth – the total extinction of all life-forms.

A word to the wise is enough, and a thousand words to the obtuse ought to be enough!

I am agree with you my friend...todays environment is going bad and day by day...it is the sign of disaster

Thank you, Mack.
I could have added # 9 "Global Warming as the result of Ozone Depletion" but that is too slow and will take too long.
Anyway, keep that in mind, too.
And thanks again, Mack.
