according to the mayan calender it actually means the end of an age, we are in the age of pisces at the moment (our solestiar rotation within the galaxy or some such), after this date we will be within the age of aquarius, mayan translation was end of Age, not end of Days, research it..
as for propechys, there are alot of stupid things flying around the internet of "what will happen".. try google and see which makes you laugh the most.
here are but a few...
-1) End of the world
-2) our evolutionary step
-3) aliens making their presence known (in none violent ways)
-4) aliens conquering the planet and using us for their... deeds
-5) return of the mesiah, jesus christ
-6) same as 1) only via catastrophies such as..
--a) Pol Axis flipping creating a new ice age (also known as the real reason for global warming - cough)..
--b) mega hurricane\tidal waves..
--c) all the good stuff ya see in todays hollywood epics
-7) world war III
-8) the big bang experiment creates a blackhole after testing and swallows the earth -(farely new one!)
-9) Meteorite\Asteroid colliding with our planet..
10) Nothing atall..
its only 2009, so im sure plenty of crazy new ideas will surface before the time comes

- perhaps Reality TV will bore us all to death?
Oh, this is also my first post, and perhaps my last, so i would just like to say, Hi, hope this was interesting\entertaining, and Good Luck for 2012!
