Follow on Google News |  2011 in Review and Looking Ahead to 2012Rob McConnell host and executive producer of the internationally syndicated talk radio and TV show The 'X' Zone Radio & TV Show and publisher of The 'X' Chronicles Newspaper puts reality into the end of the Mayan Calendar - December 21 2012 mix.
By: Rob McConnell Members of Christian sects are also predicting that December 21 2012 will be the day when Jesus Christ makes his return in “The Second Coming” - thus ushering in the Apocalypse as written about in the Bible’s Book of Revelations. Over the past two years, I have interviewed people who are experts and “self-proclaimed Scholars” alike, and it has been very interesting to me both as a broadcaster and a “Student of Humanity” to watch the changing dynamics of those who were had core believers that the world would end on December 21 2012, creating an empty void in the universe where planet Earth used to be to now believing that December 2012 will be the date when a new age of spirituality, love and peace will be ushered in. Throughout history there have been doomsday predictions, hundreds of them, which, as you know, did not happen. This year, Harold Camping, an American Christian radio broadcaster, who, using a limited knowledge of self-taught numerology and applying his findings to the Bible he predicted that on May 20 2011, Jesus would be returning to Earth, the righteous would fly up to heaven and that there would be five months of fire, brimstone and plagues on Earth, with millions of people dying every day, culminating on October 21, 2011 with the end of the world. As is the case with all previous doomsday predictions throughout history, Harold Camping was wrong. By the way, Camping had also incorrectly predicted the end of the world on May 21, 1988 and September 6, 1994. His prediction for May 21, 2011 was widely reported, in part because of a massive publicity campaign by Family Radio, and it prompted responses from both atheist and Christian organizations. After May 21 passed without the predicted incidents, Camping said he believed that a "spiritual" judgment had occurred on that date, and that the physical Rapture would occur on October 21, 2011, simultaneously with the destruction of the universe by God. Except for one press appearance on May 23, 2011, Camping largely avoided press interviews after May 21, particularly after he suffered a stroke in June. October 21, 2011, passed without the predicted apocalypse, leading , not only myself on air proclaiming that Harold Camping was a nut-case, but the International Business Times also proclaimed Camping a "false prophet." Whatever happed to Harold Camping you ask? Camping was reported to have retired from his position at Family Radio as of October 16, 2011, only days before his last predicted date for the end of the world. However, his daughter later clarified that he had not retired outright, but was maintaining a role at the Family Radio while working from home. Camping admitted in a private interview that he no longer believed that anybody could know the time of the Rapture or the end of the world, in stark contrast to his previously staunch position on the subject. As for what the Mayans have to say about the end of the Mayan Calendar? Their explanation is very simple. The Mayans simply use the analogy that it is the very same as when we take down the old calendar New Year’s Eve and put up the new calendar. It’s that simple. The Mayans have no idea where the doom and gloom correlation with the end of their calendar comes from! In short, I believe, as do the scientists, professors, scholars, historians, archaeologists and other learned professionals that I have had on The ‘X’ Zone discussing December 21 2012, that it will be a day like any other, with the Sun rising and falling, the Moon and stars will come out at night, and the following morning, December 22, 2012 will then commence, with many doomsday believers looking very foolish. It seems that certain members of our planets society need to have a doom and gloom scenario in their lives, since they are unable or unwilling to cope with life and they look for an easy way our - the total annihilation of the planet and the loss of their life. Undoubtedly, they will have some very mystical and/or religious reason why we were spared.
