the wobble doesn't changes the seasons around my friend


Seasons are based on the earth 'leaning' towards the sun. If the earth wobbles the other way, the opposite hemisphere will be pointing towards the sun. Meaning the seasons are at a different time of year.

Not at all.
It has been proven that no catastrophe will happen.
And time goes on.

The same thing as Y2K. it was goverment based propaganda to help out the economy so tons of people would buy batteries, stock food, ECT. basically a great way to scare civilians into buying a ton of shit they dont need.

i was browsing www.december212012.com. we all know there are a lot of scientific and regilious reasonings of a cataclysmic event that will change the planet on that certain day. just for kicks i went to the forum to see how active it was, and sheesh, there are tons of people there talking as though the end of the world is actually coming. they are actually buying guns, stocking up on food, making shelters etc. so, just how gone do you have to be to take this seriously, or even be prepared for it?

Many cultures predicted a new era, not the end of the world as many people portray. Anyways this is when I think aliens will present themselves to us.

doubtful


the amount of technology required to cross the galaxy in a single life span is un imaginable to us atm, and if a alien race were to be able to achieve this feat would mean there hundreds of thousands if not millions of more years advanced then us. They wouldent come present them selves to us because there would be no point, they would simply observe us with robotics cause the amount of energy required to send robots into space is significantly less then actual life forms, why do you think we send probes to Jupiter and not humans?

let me put it in perspective.

Imagine a ant hill next to a 10 lane super highway, the ants go about there daily business not knowing or understand what the highway is completely ignorant to the huge mass of technology and innovation 20 feet away from there home, and we humans dont go to the ants and try to explain to them what its purpose is and how it works because its useless the ants wouldn't understand, humans just simply sit and observe the ants not trying to communicate with them.

in this analogy the ants are humans and the humans are the advanced alien race.

Aliens wont present them selves until we reach the comparable intelligence of what a dog is to a human, at least then some sort of communication could be exchanged
