Like the weather on a grand scale?

yeah we have the tech to predict soloar/lunar eclipse, constilations all types of events that happen in the galaxy.

and the myans had a calendar to tell them the cosmic weather.

I honestly beleive those ancient cultures had something else going on. I understand they were great mathematicians, but c'mon........they were getting some outside information from somewhere. No way just by looking up at the sky with a sexton or something to the like, do they make such accurate cosmic predictions. These were people "supposedly" not too far removed from the caves, if we allow for the story of human history to be as it has been presented. I think somewhere along the line we've been fed a serious line of feces.

The calendar just ends, I don't remember them prophysizing anything about death, doom and destruction. 12/21/2012 is the End of the Mayan calendar and when our planet returns to galactic central.

read about the event its all in the translation. definetly mentions polar shift and the effects on the earth.

The poles have shifted before and are in the process of shifting now. It's not some big whoosh, like an earthquake, it's a slow process.

And I'm sorry, but if some of the most highly respected druids, witches, priestesses, astrologers and elders of the entire North American pagan community ain't worrying, I sure as hell ain't worrying.

We have huge floods now, remember that tsunami in 2004? It killed a quarter of a million people. How did that affect you? What about New Orleans?

We have fires, look at California, look at Austrailia.

There are volcanos and earthquakes going off all over the place. But is your life changing? We have natural disasters ALL the time, and they are catastrophic. If you were to relay this information to your extreme ancestors they'd probably think this is a terrible time we're living in. It's just what's happening. The world will not change in the blink of an eye.

And just because it's a certain date thinking that shit is going to start hitting this planet from space is just daft. The fact is, we're long overdue for a biggie, but until we can figure out how to get Bruce Willis up there to set off a nuclear bomb, ain't a whole lot any of us can do about a planet killer so worrying about it is like worrying about your own death. You're not going to prevent it, and you'll only make yourself miserable until it happens.

Why are you so ignorant? Just because you don't understand something, or something is unusual or exotic to you, that makes it invalid and you mock it? Think of what I'm saying this way, while it's not conventional religion, these individuals are as well educated (or more so in some cases) as any Rabbi, Pastor, or Cardinal. In their fields they aren't just good, they are expert.

Being an elder in my tradition isn't something bestowed lightly. You have to earn that bitch. There's about 100+/- people in our tradition now and we have a grand total of 4 elders. Our most recent elder earned his degree when he completed work in addition to acquiring his Masters in comparitive religion. Another of our elders is a college professor and holds at least one masters in fine art.

These people haven't put on a hat and said "Hey, I'm grand high poobah for the fairies of the west." These are successful, well respected, and well educated people.

To me that's exactly what they are, so sorry. I'm the same way about zombie carpenters, people that think zombie carpenters will save us all, people that think pigs are filthy, etc. Don't be so defensive.

do i believe that an extinct race of peyote smoking, human sacrificing, dipshits could predict the future?? they weren't even smart enough to figure out a way to stay around long enough to see the end of their own damn calendar. . .ummm. . .yeah. . .i don't think so. . .
