Hey Gang! First off, happy holidays to you all. Hope you are all enjoying the winter break and having a great time with family and friends.
Anywho, these past few days of boredom have led me to watching this special on The History Channel, which can also be viewed here:
(SKIP AHEAD UNTIL ABOUT 1:50 TO GET THE JIST OF THE VIDEO -- OR JUST READ MY POST
)
For those of you who have yet to be familiar with this topic, scholars, historians and even scientists are now beginning to put a great deal of attention on the day 12/21/12 (winter solstice 2012).
This is what I've learned/taken from the video:According to modern interpretation of the research, Ancient Mayan prophecies based on astronomical observations say that 12/21/12 will have significant importance. It's the day that the Mayan calender ends and completes it's full cycle...AND, modern astronomy (to this day) has indicated that GALACTIC ALIGNMENT will take place on this SAME day that the Mayan calender ends.
Apparently, Galactic Alignment is the alignment of the December solstice sun with the Galactic equator. This has become more important event due to the fact that in 2001 NASA did in fact discover a black hole in the middle of our galaxy, which makes the Galactic equator have much more importance and affects on Earth.
Initially, Galactic Alignment occurs every 26,000 years and the next alignment is expected to occur on the winter solstice of 2012 according to not only NASA, but also, eerily, the Mayan prophecies as well.
The video explains more about this, and will explain it better than I can of course. I highly suggest you watch.
And, according to FOX NEWS, many people actually are falling for this conspiracy:
So, my question to this message board is:Do you believe in this, or do you think it's all a bunch of fluffed-up crap that is used to put programming on the history channel? Do you believe that science can really back these theories? Anything else you should point out about this conspiracy topic, please point it out!
Thanks guys,
Jae
