Doomsday Science

**MuscleScience** · 02-03-2009, 09:08 PM

I pretty much only watch channels like the Discovery Channel, History Channel, TLC and the Science Channel. Probably comes as no surprise to some.

Anyway, I can not stand when they have a program that talks only about doom and gloom. Most of the really good programs start out ok but then you learn about how a billion years from now the Sun is going to engulf the Earth and everyone if they are still around are going to die.

Seriously it gets annoying, so I am going to rant about it. Does anyone actually like hearing about how we are going to die a billion years from now????

**T_Own** · 02-03-2009, 09:13 PM

i do
because then i can pass down the bad news over the next 999,999,900 generations that their kid will die at age 100

**xlxBigSexyxlx** · 02-03-2009, 09:25 PM

lol, I like it.

Then again, I love those channels and find most of that stuff interesting.

But it does get annoying to me in a repetitive sense. I can watch 20 shows and 15 will basically show me the same thing.

Its like a love hate relationship

i like those channels. I find completely useless facts intriguing but yea those over and over doomsday programs do get old.

**JiGGaMaN** · 02-04-2009, 04:52 AM

tlc and discovery sold out. only useful if you want to learn about tattoos, nannys or building a motorized vehicle. just wanted to let you know.

**jimmyinkedup** · 02-04-2009, 07:23 AM

^^^ *L* ....funny .....and true.....

***D7M*** · 02-04-2009, 07:34 AM

I like all those channels too, but those doomsday shows do get annoying

***RAGE*** · 02-04-2009, 07:41 AM

Yes they do bro I dont want to know until it happens...work better underpresser

**Matt** · 02-04-2009, 09:00 AM

Am i the only one that watches the cartoon channels??

**higherdesire** · 02-04-2009, 09:59 AM

I get so sick of all that speculation and negativity too. It is interesting in a way but my interest has developed more towards the near term. How do I raise my children to be contributors to a cleaner planet, not how do I deal with the sun burning out. I turn the channel pretty quickly to something useful. Like Big Brother, or Survivor! ;-P

actually, their was one not to long ago, which you cant watch on youtube, i still need to see it, about the world ending on 2012 and how so many different religioins point to it. they do use the bible. which is obviously wrong because jesus said you will not know the time nor place.

**Gears** · 02-04-2009, 07:27 PM

Knowing mankind will someday come to an end is a slight relief with me. Knowing we will all return to the same matter that we once were is... ok.

***RAGE*** · 02-04-2009, 07:27 PM

you are born and you are going to die....when and where it up to some one else...i hope it is not going to be 2012

**opie308** · 02-04-2009, 07:47 PM

i think the 2012 thing is from the mayan calender it stops on some day in december in 2012...i think it was the 12....12/12/12. but it has been awhile i could be wrong

I am going to watch the video and get informed on this...but this whole idea just seems retarded to me right now.

**paulzane** · 02-05-2009, 12:58 AM

No. It was the winter equinox which is 21st Dec 2012..... bet you fcuk your hearts out before then .... no need to use condoms as if you get Aids you won't know in time!!

**J-Dogg** · 02-05-2009, 12:59 AM

Dude, if that sun tries to engulf me, I'm going to beat it down. Just dump some green tea on it.

We have 30 billion years to put together a strategy to defeat the sun. I just solved the problem in a few minutes.

thanks...my intro north american history prof was in love with Mayans and it has been years....i just remembered something about there calendar and the circles rotating last day was in dec 2012...at which time their calendar starts over... again if i recollect correctly

**Howard Stern** · 02-05-2009, 02:00 AM

2012 its almosts over!!!

**Destructo** · 02-07-2009, 01:50 AM

No. That's cheap programming. Doom and gloom and boloney special effects are the only way they can get most viewers to sit until the end- by providing some lure of suspense and horror that has absolutely no bearing on the subject matter. Pathetic tactics, really. Remember the Nova series? or the original National Geographic documentaries? Good stuff, no junk. I recently ordered a bunch of episodes of a series called Horizon. Scientific discovery is too interesting to be all mucked up with some lame writer's predictable interpretation of "the end."

**xlxBigSexyxlx** · 02-07-2009, 01:56 AM

I just want to fight zombies and shit.

If I have to die, that is the way I want to go out. Blasting zombies.

I LOVE IT.

amcon....it goes back a long ways but mostly is based off of the mayan calender and the fact that is stops at 2012. Its a miss understanding. It signifies an end of an era. An era being an actual unit of measure to the maya. So much has been placed on this because the maya were very advanced with astronomy and mathematics. But...still BS. The world will end in one way or another. When the sun loses its fuel in several billion years and becomes a red giant and engulfs the earth. Or we could be struck by an astroid. Our solar system isnt stationary (just as we are speeding through space at over 100,000 km/hr ) and there are parts of galaxy you would NOT want your solar system drifting into. We could easily end up in one of these zones. The earth as the galaxy is forcing outwad could be flung from its current orbit and sent flying into space and into frozen oblivion. Nuclear winter, disease, famine...man...whatever. One way or another. Its over.

This Galactic Alignment occurs only once every 26,000 years, and was what the ancient Maya were pointing to with the 2012 end-date of their Long Count calendar.

And there are other things that point to 2012 as well, one being the I Ching.
And super volcanos like Yellowstone which in the past couple years just entered what they call the Red Zone, meaning it can blow really at any moment now which would cause great devastation.
I think something with the 4th quarter of Jewish calendar or something is a sign of then end, and 2012 is the beginning of their 4th quarter, or something like that...
and only one more pope, and when there is a "black lord"

Its interesting stuff. To say its all true....idk...but interesting no doubt

hey just dont ever ever take the sign of the beast - the bible talks of such times and it happens after 7 years rein of "the black lord' or the devil - satan... it states very clearly what will happen - we just dont know the time and i also believe it is very soon...

sorry its year 5769 right now in the jewish calendar. 2012 happened over 3,500 years ago.

but seriously, i think the mayans way overshot their estimate of 2012. i mean where they at now huh? where they at?
