2012 Doomsday Theories - Are They True?

As I am sure you will agree; it seems as though we read about another doomsday prophecy almost daily nowadays, even though there's never any evidence to support such claims. Ironically, these self same prophecies have been around since time in memorial, which of course makes one wonder why we're being bombarded with them nowadays. Having said that; there are many who say that these events are just about to start unfolding, based the fact that so many of the doomsday theories make mention of 2012.

Many of the people who believe in such prophecies are quick to point out that the ancient Mayan calendar predicts something significant will take place on the 21st or 23rd of December 2012, but of course, none of us have a clue as to what they were referring to. Obviously, events such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, or even a meteor impact could all result in doomsday, depending of course on the severity of the event.

Interestingly enough, many people are speculating that planet X. may have something to do with doomsday occurring in 2012. This is essentially because if planet X comes to close to the earth it could effectively alter the earth's gravitational pull and end up knocking the earth off its axis. In the event that something like this actually happened, it would certainly mean doomsday for us.

However, is it really feasible to believe that the Mayans knew more than we do with regards to events which could take place in 2012? After all, NASA does employ some of the top scientists in the world and yet they have no evidence whatsoever to suggest that anything significant is about to take place.

Let's face it; there's really not much chance that the Mayans new more than what we do nowadays, so of course, we really don't have anything to get excited about. You can bet your bottom dollar that once 2012 has come and gone, the same people that believe these prophecies will simply find something else to worry about.

To a certain extent, a conspiracy theory such as this does make sense, simply because the government would probably want to do whatever was necessary in order to maintain calm amongst the population. After all, if they announced that there would be no tomorrow, who knows how the human race would respond? Also, one can argue that the government certainly does have the power to censor and silence the media. However there's one other thing we need to take into consideration.

So, what is it? Essentially, the government would certainly want to let the population know that something was about to happen, given that it would result in a massively stimulated economy. Admittedly, they may not disclose much, but they certainly wouldn't cover it up completely. After all, considering that the world is still reeling from the recent economic crisis, the government is desperate for people to begin spending money. If the government for example announced that a major tragedy was about to unfold, the vast majority of people would be rushing out to stock up so that they can be prepared for the worst. Of course, you don't need to be a rocket scientist in order to appreciate how such large scale spending could benefit the economy.

Now perhaps you need to ask yourself whether or not this could have anything to do with the media reporting doomsday prophecies more frequently nowadays. Maybe this is also just another conspiracy, so I guess we'll all have to wait for the end of 2012 to find out.
