First of all that wasn't spam. That was actually related to the topic if you did any research on what you posted.
Also the world will end in 2036. There is a comet 2 times the size of earth heading for us and unless somehow in the next few years we can change its gravitational pull we are gone.

Oh aight, Damn a comet two times earth? Most likely they will find a way to blow it up, But! If they try 2 blow it up pieces of it will still fall on earth. If its like u said, 2 times the size of earth then we gonna have to find something to blow it up or change its course.
If you blew it up that would be worse. Then we would have hundres and thousands of giant rock chunks flying at the earth. They say if they dont fix this by 2020 that there is nothing we can do. The comet will be in the gravitational pull for good
When the world ends.. people on GP right now will be dead already... Earth is not ending for a long time... heck our great grankids won't even see the world end lol...
Harry what I have said about the Comet has been proven. So when you say that you have absolutely no clue
Demon_Eyes Kyo
He holds the triforce of power
Comet? uhhh.... I'll be on mars if anyone needs me
haha jk
and yes it has been proven but if you look at the way our technology's improving we're probably gonna have a was to stop it way before 2036.

By that time.. we will have some plans to overcome that hit...
BTW.. there are a shit load of comets hitting earth daily... just not very large ones...
Like I said harry. this Comet is twice the size of the earth. Right now they are planning a suicide rocket to go out and try to shift the gravitational pull of said comet
well if we dont die 2012 like the myans predicted then yes you are right crue.
but the myan callender ends 2012. so there would be the end of the world, cant wait for the commet :O

What Will Happen on December 21, 2012?
What we perceive from our vantage point of being in human form is only a teeny sliver of the infinite swirl of interpenetrating realities that make up the universe. To us, there is a past, present, and future. Time appears to move predictably from moment to moment forming the days and years of our lives. 2012 is a real date on our calendars and each of the possible scenarios can be seen to be advancing steadily toward it like racehorses to the finish line.
If you were to ask the "2012 End-of-the-World" question of a gifted psychic, she (or he) would gaze into several of the parallel universes making up our possible futures and report back on the one that seemed to be the most vivid. This is like a handicapper picking the favorite in a particular race. Just as in horse racing, the favorite often wins or comes close. But, not always. On any given day, one of the long shots might cross the line first while the favorite trails the field.
From a cosmic perspective, picking the winning scenario is easy. Understanding the nature of how this can be done is considerably more elusive. Infinity is impossible to grasp in finite terms. When we pose a finite question in an infinite realm, it's like trying to cram a herd of stampeding elephants into a matchbox. It won't be the lack of effort that defeats us, but the minuscule size of the container we are trying to use. Our minds are the matchbox. We are going to have to think way out of the box to begin to grasp the answer to how our world will fare on December 21, 2012.
Global Focus
The simple answer is that every one of the possible scenarios you can envisage will find expression in one or more of the myriad parallel universes that manifests in every instant. And that includes the date spoken about by so many as the moment our world will come to an end.
What adds weight to this date is the fact that with each passing hour more people are becoming aware of it, adding their energies to the consensus. We have already seen the power of agreement at work in events such as World Healing Day, The Harmonic Convergence and other similar moments of global focus. It was not the calendar date that created the power; it was the cohesive intent of those who took part.
Ancient Cultures Share 2012 Prophecy
Having said that, it is no mere coincidence that so many disparate cultures all around the world, that have had no known contact with one another, should focus on the same date.
There is increasing evidence that the time leading up to the final solstice of 2012 does mark the presence of an energy portal that has never before been accessible to the human race. Each of us is being offered an opportunity to shift that may not again arise in thousands of years to come.
Whether December 21, 2012 actually marks an immutable cosmological event or becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy is moot. There is no question that it looms as a very significant moment.
What concerns most people, is how they and their loved ones will be affected. At one end of the bell-curve of probabilities is total physical annihilation. At the opposite end is the arrival of the Golden Age we all dream about. Every other conceivable possibility lies between them. Somewhere near the center of the curve most people will find their most likely scenario in which the monumental moment will pass quietly like Y2K and their lives will appear to continue as if nothing happened at all.
December 22, 2012 will dawn as clocks continue to tick and the human race continues to move one day closer to whatever future harvest it has sown. That doesn't mean that many other people, who live their lives at the extremities of the curve, won't experience radically different events.
Deciding Your Fate in 2012
Imagine if you will, that you are in the center of a vast central train station.
The tracks are arranged like the spokes of a giant wheel, each moving away from the center in a different direction. The trains are all scheduled to depart at the same moment on December 21, 2012.
Every human being on Earth is at the station; free to board any of the trains he or she chooses. Each train is destined for a different parallel universe in which one of the innumerable possibilities is played out.
You (like everyone else) are at the station and must get on one of an almost infinite number of trains. But, like the psychic, you can only see one or two of them. Your choices appear meager — almost as if you had no choice at all and your future was determined totally by fate. Such is not the case at all — unless, of course, you allow it to be.
If you remember the station scene in the Harry Potter books (or movies) in which the wizard children were able to board the Hogwarts Express on platform 9 3/4 by walking straight through a concrete pillar, then you will begin to see how all this works. What is delightfully easy for wizards is equally impossible for muggles (non-wizards).
The Hogwarts Express is bound for the next dimension — the Golden Age of our dreams. The problem is that until you become a wizard, you have no way of finding the right platform. The world, as you know it, will definitely end on December 21, 2012, if that's what you choose. You will definitely be there when it happens, seated on one of the infinite number of trains leaving the station. Every one of us will be required to be on board.
Now that you know where you will be on the day the world ends, you get to decide which train you'd like to ride. There is still time (according to the calendars of this illusion) before the trains must leave the station. Plenty of time for you to leave your muggle world behind and become the wizard you already are. The choice, as always, is yours.

What Catholics Believe About The End of the World
by Kenneth E. Untener
In January of 1843, a preacher named William Miller—the founder of the American Adventist movement—announced that the end of the world would take place between March 21,1843, and March 21,1844. He had combed the Bible for clues and figured it all out.
Thousands from all denominations believed him, and tension mounted as the yearlong vigil began, heightened by the appearance of a comet. Alas, the fateful year came to an end, and the world didn’t.
Neither did the speculation. There had been a miscalculation, Miller pointed out. He and his followers found a passage in the prophet Habakkuk about a “delay,” and a verse in the Book of Leviticus about 7 days and 10 months. Neither passage, of course, had anything to do with the end of the world, but never mind that. A new date was announced: October 22, 1844. Tension mounted once again. You know the outcome.
Similar scenarios have taken place in every age and continue at this moment. Such prophets never fail to find believers. Elvis lives.
The hype increases as we approach the year 2000. Some take it seriously, even fanatically, as did the Branch Davidian sect in Waco, Texas, in 1993. One radio church lists 24 signs from the Bible that the end is near. Crop rotation in Israel, for example, fulfills a prophecy in Amos about the plowman overtaking the reaper. And on and on it goes.
Doomsday Passages in Scripture
We now take a closer look at how the Bible treats the end of the world. We are familiar with various kinds of literature: poetry, science fiction, history, satire. Most people are not familiar with a kind of literature called “apocalyptic.” It was very popular from about 200 B.C. to 200 A.D., a time of great crisis in Israel.
The Greek word apocalypse (in English, revelation) literally means “to draw back the veil.” When times were tough, writers tried to bring comfort by putting things into a wider perspective. Baseball managers try to do the same when their team is in a slump: “We were riding high at the beginning of the season, but now the sky has fallen in. Well, we’ve been through tough times before. It’s a long season and we’ve got the horses.”
Apocalyptic literature attempts to give assurance that, however bad things may be, one need only draw back the veil and see things in the perspective of the great battle against evil, and appreciate the length and breadth and depth of God’s victorious power at work among us.
To paint this larger picture, writers drew from a storehouse of stock apocalyptic images that dwarfed the immediate crisis. Among the standard images were: stars falling from the sky, the sun and moon darkened, lightning, thunder, dragons, creatures with many eyes, four horsemen, trumpet blasts, water turning to blood, plagues. It’s a way of saying that the present order of things is not the whole picture and will be giving way to something new and much larger.
Strange pictures are conjured up when people take these apocalyptic images literally. Imagine what would happen if people in future epochs took literally images we use today: raining cats and dogs, hit the roof, money coming out of his ears, two-faced, forked tongue, on cloud nine and so on
When will it all happen?
When will history come to term? When will the “birth” happen? We don’t know. There is no indication that it is near, and there is no assurance that it is far. What is important is not when it will happen, but that it will happen. History is short when put in perspective. The Second Epistle of Peter reminds us, “But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years and a thousand years like one day” (3:8).
What is also important is that our own end is relatively near. By the insurance mortality charts, I have 23 years left. Only God knows the actual count. In the Parable of the Rich Fool, Jesus presents this perspective in language we can all under*stand. After a bountiful harvest the rich man plans to store his grain in bigger barns, believing be can now rest, eat, drink, be merry. God says to him, “You fool, this night your life will be demanded of you; and the things you have prepared, to whom will they belong?” (Lk 12:20)
When we see ourselves and this world in the perspective of history coming to term, we see with different eyes. Things that seem so important within the limited horizon of the womb of history become not so important. Things that seem not so important in this world’s eyes become very important. It changes one’s whole attitude about what you want to do with your life.
Instead of fretting about the question of “when,” therefore, we are wiser to focus on the question of “who”—namely, upon a loving God who promises to walk with us to the end, whenever that occurs. Our understanding of the “end” flows from a real-life conviction about the here-and-now meaning of our lives and our universe. In short, we believe with St. Paul that the same God “who began a good work in you will continue to complete it until the day of Christ Jesus” (Phil 1:6).

I think it's going to be just like South Park said. The minorities will take over, and that's what they meant by the world ending!
