Are we doomed?

I was watching something on NG or Doco channel or something, and one of few main reasons a lot of people think he was right was the prophesy's from the Mayan calender. Basically from what I gather, it said that on 2012 the earth will undergo a huge change that will change the world as we know it... That might actually be a good thing.

End of the earth? No.

End of this age? Yes. But not for another hundred years or so

I've heard similar, that the prediction is of a change in thinking or 'consciousness' in the human race.

Either way, there is no point worrying as I'd say that whatever may happen is bound to be out of your control, and as the saying goes 'it is usually the case that worrying about an event is much more painful than the event itself'.

Nothing is for certain until it has already happened.

I have been doomed to die since the moment I was born. Nostradamus prophecy has been around for a very long time now

as have many other doomsday theories. Like I said, I have been doomed from day one. Today is the important one for me, not what may or may not happen at some place in the future that I may not be around to witness anyway.

Well I'm dying for something new and interesting to happen, so I won't cry about it when it happens

Where did you hear that about 'consciousness'?
