Hello to all,
First and Foremost, I want to thank the makers of this site for debunking the ridiculous claims of the newest D-Day hoax.
When I was in grade school in the year 1999, everyone was talking about the Y2K. It did actually happen, just not to the extent that they foretold. My family prepared as the school told us to. The school sent home flyers about it, and what we should prepare. I went to a speciality school for the intelligent and gifted children. We prepared water, canned food, flashlights, and the school was a bomb shelter and we were to go there if we didn't have any other safe area around to go to on New Years Eve/ New years.
My family and I stayed awake the entire night, awaiting—scared and helpless at the coming of the apocolypse. But nothing happened. We were safe. And we were angry. Not exactly because it didn't happen, we were happy about that, but angry at the distraught it brought on us, angry at the money we wasted buying food that would last us the next few months.
The cash registers at the grocery store next to our house crashed, as they were old Linux computer systems. But other than that-it was nothing.
But during the time that we were first told about it—every night I had nightmares. I remember two nightmares exactly to this day.
The first one I dreamt that I was in school, we were sitting on the floor and the apocolypse had happened. One by one the tiles in the floor were dissapearing into a dark abyss. We were each told to take a tile (by our alphabatized names, no less). I watched as the many children before me were thrown into the dark abyss of nothingness. Then it came my turn. I was one of the last children due to my last name beginning in an "S" The teacher came up to me as I held on to one of my friends who were after me. We were crying, saying we didn't want to die. And thenn I was thrown in.
I woke up sceaming, terrified that it would come true.
Another dream I had was around the same time, but closer to the due date of the "Foretold catastrophe". I was at my best friend's house and we were talking about it. When the sky turned red and I knew I needed to get home. She only lived a block away, so I always walked there. We said our goodbyes 'forever' and I started on my way home. I looked at the sky and I was afriad I wouldn't make it home in time before I died. When I looked up, I saw meteors and meteorites coming down. One hit my friend's house and I started to cry and started running. they were falling all around me and some blocked my path. I could see my house. I went into a full run. Just as i reached the driveway, one landed on the house and I could hear my family's screams. And I woke.
No child should have dreams like that due to rumours.
When I first heard about the 2012 matter, My father was watching a 'documentary' on it on the History Channel. I sat there and watched it, and it made me afriad. But I had always enjoyed studying parapsychology and different cultures and before that day I had never heard of the Mayan's predicting anything. So I was a bit skeptic, but still scared.
I had forgotten about it over time, then everyone started talking about it again when they were developing the 2012 movie. I spoke with one of the Doomsayers last year. he was teling kids that it was going to happen, and I apologize to those of you who would want to knock his teeth in, but I cannot remember his name, nor his website. But I wrote him an E-mail, being skeptic of his claims, and what he said just made me angrier. he started talking about how all the planets will be aligned and that we will be passing through a line that makes blah-blah line with blah-blah and cause a massive change in the Earth's atmosphere. How "Not everyone will die, but most of the civilization will be destroyed"
It irritated me. On his site he was throwing out claims of the Mayan Calendar. I provedhim wrong on those, even before I had found this website. I stated simply that we have no idea what they were truly using the Mayan Calendar for. This Era has never met a Mayan and asked them "what's this?".
In my thoughts, no one TRULY knows anything about people in the past. It is all things that we "think" "might have" been. So I never believed anything about the mayan Calendar foretelling any event.
And when he spoke of the changing of the planet, I was also skeptic. And he was using the excuses of "You're young so you just want to deny the facts. This is why I try to educate. So don't blame me if you are not prepared."
I am 22. When I wrote him, I was 21. Although that may be young to some people, I am old enough to know better. I'm not the type to follow the masses in what they think will happen. Everytime someone asks me about it, I tell them that it is just a hoax. Just like all the other Doomsday threats that the public have put out. You can see pictures everywhere on the net now where people way back in the 60's or even earlier are holding up signs saying the world is ending. It didn't happen then, and it isn't happening now.
Lately I've been seeing kids saying "OMG!!!! IF YOU ADD 9/11/01 AND 3/10/11 IT EQUALS 12/21/12!!!!! IT'S REALLY GUNNA HAPPEN!!!!"
No. First of all, the terrorist attack on the United States has nothing to do with the planet. And Secondly, what happened on 3/10? The events of Japan happened on 3/11/11 so I have no clue where they pulled that date out from.
Also, If you add the dates 9.11.2001 and 3.10.2011 In no way does it equal 12.21.2012. It would equal 12.21.4012….
Anyway, I found this site when I was searching for ways to get my friends to believe what I had been saying and all of my debunking claims. And you guys hit it on the nose. I sent them to the site to show them the proof that they wanted. I couldn't stand the fact that they were thinking of killing themselves or they were afriad to have thier baby because it would just die a horrible death in 2012.
Your site helped them. Not only did you state the same things I have been telling them for a long time, but you even provided true accounts from scientists and the like.
So thank you guys. Now if only the rest of the world would stop the mass hysteria, we will all be safe from 2012. I'm more afriad of what the hysteria of the date is going to cause. When people are afriad, they will do ANYTHING.
