It seems like that man gave us a proof about 2012 ,by mean what it's going to happen ,no one can say: "I don't feel that something strange is happening arround the world", Sun becoming more strong ,Earthquake one after one, tsunamis etc. What is the answer, is he lier or what? Please your comments and thanks.

What are your beliefs? I myself believe in God. I also believe he is the only one who knows when the world will end.
If you don't believe in God then it's up to you to believe what you want to about Nostradamus.
The prophets in the Bible and the Lord himself gave signs we could see and know that the end of time is near.
Wars and rumors of war. Earthquakes , pestilence etc.
If you don't believe in God then I can't tell how Nostradamus foretold the future.
I know he was a Christian Prophet
So I guess he would have taken a lot of what he foretold from the Bible.
That's my opinion and what I believe.

There have always been wars and natural disasters in the world. Fifty years ago, we didn't hear about problems and disasters until they were finally reported on the radio or in newspapers, often a day or two (or longer) after they had happened.
Now, communication is so instantaneous that I will see headlines on my computer's Yahoo News less than a minute after something has happened. And we hear about small wars and disasters that we never would have heard about in the past.
Instant communication and intense interest in the world's happenings mean that we are constantly bombarded with negative news. It just seems like the world is getting in worse shape.
The world will not be destroyed in 2012. That year was just the end of a cycle in the Mayan calendar. That lie has been refuted many times by scientists and anthropologists.
I wouldn't call Nostradamus a liar, but I certainly wouldn't quote him.

You can pretty much mold any of his predictions to fit what you want to pick out of history. How many times was the world supposedly going to end?
The sun goes through cycles, many earthquakes, and their aftershocks, happen around the world every single day every year, natural disasters are not uncommon.

I believe there is only one person who knows and that is God. I know the Bible says , "No man knows the day or the hour"
I know what I believe and it isn't
What everyone believes, but I feel
In my heart it won't be 2012.
It could be today or tomorrow or twenty years from now but it will happen. That's my opinion.
As I said we all have different beliefs.

From what I gather, it was not Nostradmus, but the Mayans who some believe predicted the end on Dec. 22 2012.

Right! Nostradamus is "credited" with lots of "predictions," but none that are so specific as to pin-point December 2012 as a special date in any wayl It's modern doom-sayers who have picked on one version of an old Mayan calendar that presumably ends in December 2012, but note that there are other versions of the Mayan calendar that keeps on going past that date. In any event, there is no credible evidence for any of the "end of world" predictions. And even if te Mayan's calendar wasn't sophisticated enough to go past a certain date - so what? If they were so smart, how'd they let their civilization come to an end?
