Has it ever occured to you that the mayans possibly ran outta stone space on the big stone that they had for the calendar and then the incas copied them exactly and then they just kept copying others calendars is that not a possibliety fuckin a people put some thought into it!!!!

For a guy sporting a pentagram or whatever that devil thing is, you have a point.

All existing calendars are imperfect in some small degree. That is not even to take into account time dialation.

Time dialates over distance, time, and the locations of heavenly objects in relation to each other. Scientists know this has some relationship to gravity, but are not entirely sure of the mechanics of it, and claim not to be able to manipulate it much. While lots of people would like to think they can totally predict all of the effects of that, it was not possible when the Mayan Calendar was created, even if it was just run off the computer of a time taveller who thought it would be cool to have the primitives sacrifice hundreds of people to his (or her) whim.

Whether or not the inaccuracy of a particular calendar comes to point, what is evident is that predictions from all major past figures who did prophesies and such become much more difficult after some point. Sequences of human events, and whatever gets influenced by the "heavens" (which could realistically be in the time dialations of the locations of heavenly objects, and how they synch into predictable but alternate realities) can possibly become so complex at some point that they are unpredictable once things reach some particular point of complexity, or a new factor comes into play which upsets the system.

Not the "end of the world" per se, but an end to the ability to predict the future using the past, although the future can and should have some general patterns and sequences of events that can still be predicted with some reliability.

So what would be freaky is not losing the ability to predict the future, which we get better at every day with various information management systems, but an ability to remember the past, as if there were a de-anchoring of past and present reality, you would effectively have a chaos system where people exist in the present, and progress to the future, with different concepts of the past.

Or that the calendar was supposed to be considered cyclical...in that when it 'ran out' it would just start over gain.

Perhaps people put TOO much thought into it, reading into it what they wish to see...

Or maybe the predictions are dead on...

the possibilities are endless...

Actually, I think that the original Mayan calendar had been in use for quite some time before the Conquistadors began invading.

[KristenWhoa]

thats what i was thinking..
i wasnt sure

Further negotiations will decide if Mayan leaders are responsible for the widespread carpal tunnel syndrome suffered by it's inscribers.

Myan inscribers union decides nobody will be around to read calendar in 3000 years and vote to have a holiday instead.

I'm with Light. on this one. I don't care about the mayan prophecies, I don't care about nostra damus, but with my eyes open and my heart open I can see and feel these changes progressively happening. What it will lead to, I have no idea, but is SOMETHING occurring now and soon, I definitely think so.

[Dabbs]

Civil war breaks out: Mayan inscribers fight priests for the right to call holiday....

I just want to tell you that your devil joke isn't appreciated, and for your enlightenment, the symbol carries many meanings that pre date christianity ( I don't know what this person means by sporting it. The point is, YOU don't either.)

[Magic Ingram]

That is a good theory there my friend

[Magic Ingram]

i got to ask..........whats on the flip side of that mayan calender.

[Aris_G.o.w.]

The symbol was not pointing down, it was pointing up and stood for protection, not some fuckin goat devil. Therefore, your anger was pointless, see now you can be happy you've been enlightened.

Has it ever occurred to you to research the subject from the mayans point of view instead of the white people who don't know what they're talking about?

Uh, dragonflyer, look at the icon at the top of the thread again, it's the"horns up" version.
