Mystery of The Maya

Why do you think everyone is saying the world is going to end in 2012 (this month).  Do you think this is true, valid information?  What do you think is really going to happen?

I don't think it will end because it sounds not so true and it says that they ran out of space to actually see when the world will end. I think what will happen is, well, nothing.

I don't think that anything is going to happen on December 21st because the Maya lived so long ago and they didn't have the technology that we have now to really know if the world is going to end. So yeah, i don't think that anything is going to happen. AND something else is that the mayan calender didn't even include leap year so the world was supposed to end a few months ago...

By what I have read in the article, A calender that was made by people named Maya, ended on December 21, 2012 so people have just made jokes and rumors about the world ending on that day, I have known about this cause i used to tease my brother about it... but i think this is true.

I think the world is not gonna end because I think it's a rumor. If it is gonna end well.....HAPPY BIRTHDAY CRUZ!Also they said the world was gonna end like 2 or 1 days before I was even BORN!

Everyone is saying the world will end in 2012 because a calender created by the Maya endson december21st 2012. I don't think the world will end.

I dont think mankind will end because the evidence found in the "Scholastic News" makes me belive that the world will not end. 1.They could have not have enough space on the rock to carve more. 2.Reporters questioned Maya and the Maya said they havent heard about the myth and they belive a Count Cycle marks a new beginning.

I don't don't think it's true because the Maya are so old so how would they know if the world was going to end? I really don't think anything will happen so um yeah.

I think it is not true. It says that it marks the end of a time period. When that day comes I don't think anything special will happen.

i dont think the world will end in 2012 because i dont think this is not true and its says it ran out of space on the rock so maybe the world wont end this month and this is why i think it will not happen

I dont think the world will end because in the article it says that this rumor has been the source of a lot of conversation-and JOKES-for months. I think that something is going to happened but not that bad as the world ending.

Jericho said...

I do not think that this is true because those american indians are telling jokes.I think what really is going to happen is that it is the end of a period.

I don't think that the world is going to end because in 2000 I heard that the same thing was going to happen but didn't so I don't think the world is going to end this month on December 21st. I think they are really wrong about this and it has gotten people really worked up for nothing.

I don't think the world is going to end in 2012. The Maya lived so long ago they didn't even have technology. so they didn't even know what was going on when they had to find out what was going on they would have to look out their window to find what is happening

yakub said...

Saif said...

I think it will not end because the Maya did this a long time ago so how do we know they didn't do anything wrong and made a mistake

kevonnie said...

I dont think the world will end i think it is just a joke

Bryan said...

I think everyone thinks the world is going to end because like the movie 2012 or to note there has been natural disasters to happen at the end of each mayan long calander cycle.

Hunter B. Smith said...

In my opinion i do not think the world will come to an end. For instant, they said the world would end in 2000 but it never did and we are 12 years later and theyre saying it will happen again?!?!?!?! Forget it its just something to gossip about.

Chloe said...

I think it will not end because we would see signs like big Tortatos and big earth quakes and huge thunder storms and big waves and ect. but every side of the earth I think has had one of those things happen to them but us so I am a little wored but I still don't think thats going to happen. Hopfuly!

harmeet said...

I think the Earth will not end because nothing is starting to happen. I think kids are going to play video games or play in the snow ( if there is any) that day.
