Although most people don't like it, let's just take a moment to look at the top 10 doomsday prophecies 2012 that failed to happen in the past, and the ones that's about to come. We all of course aware that only God knows when the world will end, but let's just not take away attention away off the people who believed that in a specific time in the coming time the world will end in many different ways imaginable.
Our grandparents probably heard from from our ancestors, then our parents learned from our grandparents and we obviously learned from our parents that the world we lived in is created from scratch by God.
We and probably most people should be really taught that God lend us our living time to stay in this planet, but it doesn't give us the right to do anything we want to it, as the matter of fact the nature ways of this planet earth has been destroyed by humans slowly and surely, we should really start to help saving the planet guys, seriously!
End Of Mayan Calendar
The 2012 phenomenon comprises a range of eschatological beliefs that cataclysmic or transformative events will occur on December 21, 2012. This date is regarded as the end-date of a 5,125-year-long cycle in the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar. Various astronomical alignments and numerological formulae related to this date have been proposed.
A New Age interpretation of this transition postulates that this date marks the start of time in which Earth and its inhabitants may undergo a positive physical or spiritual transformation, and that 2012 may mark the beginning of a new era. Others suggest that the 2012 date marks the end of the world or a similar catastrophe. Scenarios suggested for the end of the world include the arrival of the next solar maximum, or Earth's collision with a black hole, passing asteroid or a planet called "Nibiru".
The Hopi Indians Propechy
The Native American Hopi of Arizona believe in a cyclic course of history, with worlds falling into entropy over time, to be replaced by fresh new ones. Some people believe that the current world, the Fourth World of Hopi cosmology, might be coming to an end.
Terence McKenna's Prophecy: Timewave Zero 2012
Date World Ends: November/December 2012Metaphysician and ethnobotanist Terence McKenna cooks up a mathematical model of "novelty" as a central quality of the flow of time. Applying this model to the I Ching (why not Lord of the Rings or The Da Vinci Code?), he predicts the end of the world coming on Dec. 21, 2012. Well, at first it's November 2012. Then he moves doomsday up to Dec. 21, once he sees that other doomsayers are talking about Dec. 21. This pushing back of the date of an apocalyptic event clearly has a synchronic, Jungian relation to the pushing back of the release of 2012 from this past July to this November. It's all connected.
Camping's Calculation: The Rapture
After recalculating, he decided the world is actually going to end on May 21, 2011. And some people BELIEVE him. His followers are dropping out of med school, leaving their wives and children, and spending all their savings to spread the world about The Rapture. He and his followers are spending over $3 Million raising awareness. US $3 Million.
Here's his reasoning:
1. According to Camping, judgment day should occur 7,000 years after the Flood. Biblical scholars claim the Flood took place May 21 of 4,990 B.C. God told Noah to warn the people 7 days before the flood and using a Bible passage 2 Peter 3:8, "one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day," Camping treats each of the days as a thousand years.
2. The second piece of "evidence" is based off of the notion that the world began in 11,013 B.C. and after its 13,000th anniversary on May 21st, 1988, the "church age" was over and Satan took control of them (Camping and his followers do not believe in organized religion).
3. Numerology, once again, comes into the picture -- Christ was killed on April 1 33 A.D., that is 722,500 days from May 21, 2011. 722,500 is the product of this equation: (5 x 10 x 7)^2. These numbers apparently mean something special. Five is atonement, ten completeness and 17 heaven.
Y2K Attack
Date World Ends: Jan. 1, 2000
Computer scientist Robert Bremer and others see potential
catastrophe coming on Jan. 1, 2000, due to computers the world over
using two-digit representations of years in dates rather than four
digits. With the coming of the new century, the computers would go all
HAL-from-2001 on our asses, unable to function without a clear
time reference once the date prefix "19" no longer applied. This would
lead to failures of banking systems, municipal computing systems, air
traffic control ... things that humans ordinarily do a fine job of
mucking up on our own. Up to $200 billion may have been spent worldwide
(maybe $100 billion in the U.S. alone) to make computers compliant with
the new post-2000 date change. Relatively minor glitches occur worldwide
on Jan. 1, but there's no way of telling what may have failed if
precautions hadn't been taken.
Date World Ends: 1999
Nostradamus, writing in 1555, predicts the end of the world for the year 1999. Maybe. Or he predicts a meteor strike that will kill millions and throw the world into political chaos. Maybe. Or it could be an asteroid. Maybe. Or it could be a UFO with attendant alien invasion. Maybe. Or it could be, as some believe, that he predicts the plane crash that kills John F. Kennedy Jr. Maybe. It all depends on how you choose to read his murky and cryptic predictions.
The closeness of the comet's appearance to the new millennium led
religious cults like Heaven's Gate to see it as a sign of the
apocalypse.
Then amateur astronomist Chuck Shramek took a fuzzy CCD image of the comet Hale-Bopp, which showed a fuzzy, slightly elongated object nearby and spread the image to the rest of the world.
39 people in the cult committed mass suicide in California because they believed the UFO disguising itself through the comet was there to rescue them from a doomed Earth. How they thought killing themselves would help them get on the UFO makes no sense. Other cults who thought themselves to be creatures from other planets were waiting for the UFO to take them back home and end their "visit" on Earth.
Later it was discovered that two astronomers from the University of Hawaii had actually taken the photo and Shramek's had been altered to add the object.
In 1987, Chizuo Matsumoto renames himself Shoko Asahara and mashes
together various aspects of Buddhism, chunks of Nostradamus'
predictions, apocalyptic Christianity, science fiction, Hinduism, anime
and yoga into Aum Shinrikyo ("Supreme Truth"), an Armageddon-focused
cult based in Japan, with tens of thousands of members worldwide. After
proclaiming himself a new Christ, traveling to the year 2006 and talking
to the survivors of World War III (so he claims), Asahara preps his
followers for a Final War against the enemies of Japan. After a few
botched attempts at initiating germ warfare, Aum Shinrikyo spreads
deadly nerve gas through the Tokyo subway system, killing 12 and
injuring thousands in March 1995. After an eight-year trial, Asahara is
convicted and sentenced to death.

We observed, contained, and learned after reading and knowing this list, right? this is the list of top 10 doomsday prophecies 2012 ^_^
