Apocalypse 2012 ... What do YOU think?


Can't help it . . . I am a Montel Williams show freak. Mainly because I love Sylvia Brown -- and from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. every Wednesday, I HAVE TO WATCH SYLVIA BROWN WEDNESDAY.

This week however, there were more shows about the un-natural and the author of Apocalypse 2012: A Scientific Investigation into Civilization's End was on. Haven't read it, but it's on my list. Not sure what I think -- but would sure love to hear from anyone out there who has read the book!

According to Publishers Weekly the book is about as follows:
In New Age circles, the idea that some sort of world-spanning cataclysmic event will take place in December 2012 has been gaining traction for years, thanks largely to the calculations of ancient Mayan astronomers who pegged that moment as the end of a cycle of eons. Joseph uses that prophecy as a starting point, but claims that his interest lies in more substantial scientific threats to the planet—including cracks in Earth's magnetic field, the eruption of supervolcanoes and flareups of sunspot radiation. On the other hand, he also gives credence to planetary alignments and The Bible Code before veering into a rant about how the real problem is Christian fundamentalists who want to manipulate the Middle East into Armageddon. When he sticks to science journalism, Joseph is a lively tour guide, introducing readers to Mayan shamans and Russian scientists with equal aplomb. But when he encourages readers to start praying they survive the coming apocalypse, he comes off as exactly the sort of crackpot he claims to eschew. Still, there's less kookery than in other 2012 books, making Joseph a reasonably straightforward guide to the theory. (Jan. 23)

The book is great. It talks about all the different civilizations and culture that see 2012 as a time of great change. (end of life as we know it). After this time.. the world will come together in harmony to pursue a common goal.
The eerie thing is the fact that everyone is pointing to the same time in history for a big event to happen.
the book is well written and does not depress or scare you. It is written with humor(really).

Survival group against God?? LOL. Good luck with that. Truth is, no one knows the exact time this will happen except the man upstairs, however, I firmly believe that there are people placed here by God that post the warning signs and it's up to you to take heed.
