Re: RE: December 21, 2012

OMG If the end of the world is anything like the Third Impact, we can all look to Synth as our Gendo Ikari. Moogy can be Shinji, Squeek can be Kaji, Jursey can be an EVA (bad pun), Observer can be Asuka, and I'll play Rei. ROFL

Why do I have to be the insignificant character that I don't even remember?

Honestly, Jewpin summed up my point. I was trying to go for that. The Mayans were lazy. Or maybe they weren't lazy and just never got around to going further due to their downfall of their culture.

Kaji was Seele' spy into NERV who uncovers the truth about The Human Instrumentality Project and gets killed for it after telling Misato the truth, but I digress.

Yeah Squeek, Kaji was my favorite character.

[TheTypist]

Why's everyone getting so worked up about the end of the world?

Shouldn't you be ready for it?

[Chromer]

Actually if the world would end tomorrow, I wouldn't be sad. I would just be going home. Think about that for a moment.

PLEASE DO SOME RESEARCH

Since neither the Haab nor the Tzolkin recorded year numbers, something else was needed for the recording of dates. There was also a Long Count which started at 13.0.0.0.0 on August 11, 3114 BC according to the "Goodman, Martinez-Hernandez, Thompson" correlation (nicknamed "GMT"), the most widely accepted correlation between the Maya and Gregorian calendar. The baktuns progress 13, 1, 2, ..., 12. Because of this progression, many start the Long Count at 0.0.0.0.0 rather than 13.0.0.0.0, even though the Maya glyph for their epoch literally means "the completion of 13 baktuns". This cycle is 1,872,000 days in length, terminating on the Winter Solstice of (December 21) 2012 and is designated 13.0.0.0.0, since the Maya believed that time is periodic. Another widely used correlation, that of Lounsbury, correlates the start-day to August 13, 3114 BC and the terminal date to December 23, 2012.

you're welcome

Like Homer before The Rapture.

You know that the living prophet of Mormonism(probably the most powerful and most quickly spreading religion today) said that the world will end during our generation... you know the second coming, that bible stuff.

[Chromer]

Ummm Mormonism isn't the most powerful or quickly spreading. Christianity has most powerful. Muslim has most quickly spreading. Only things a Morman's got is Poligamy.

[Tasselfoot]

and the word of Joseph Smith. Praise Mr. Smith.

The South Park episode that tells the tale of the Book of Mormon is PRICELESS. Too funny.

[stretchypanda]

Uh.. Mormonism is a form of Christianity... You know.. people who believe Christ was the living embodiment of God and the savior of their eternal souls. Jam meant "denomination."

[Chromer]

Poligamy allowed in Christianity!? Pssshh yeah right. Now I suppose you want me to believe that sexually harassing little alter boys is a way of life. ¬_¬ rofl

[JurseyRider734]

It's rare that Mormons practice poligamy anymore, so you're wrong.

Ask Laharl or FishFish.

[MalReynolds]

The practice of Poligamy came into existance because the Mormon population was afraid they would fade out, out west, correct?
