Do the people who support the 2012 end of world also believe that the Earth is at the centre of our system?
And as in Astrology, their lives are controlled by a set of traffic lights in the sky?
No offence to Astrology, nothing wrong with making money out of people
I was at a party at the weekend and someone there who read lots of books on it was convinced that it was going to happen.
What I did not mention was the reason for the hoax was to sell such books!
Never mind!
Have a nice day
A.G.T
I’d say very few.
In fact, the people who started the Big 2012 Hoax back in the Summer of 2003 were building on their earlier ‘Planet X’ hoax.
Aliens from a planet around a star 40 light-years from here warned their "friend" Nancy that a rogue planet was coming through our solar system and was going to pass too close to Earth, causing all the problems we see in Roland’s movie (yes, most of Roland’s movie is actually based on 2003, not 2012).
In order to construct the two hoaxes (Planet X for 2003 and the Big 2012 Hoax), they had to rely on a sun-centred solar system.
The other lies, hoaxes and stories that they have added to the Big 2012 Hoax also rely on the Sun being in a galaxy, but not at the centre of this galaxy.
Therefore, my answer to your first question is no.

The Big 2012 Hoax also relies heavily on "Ancient Prophesies" like Nostradamus, Bible Code, I Ching, and so on, which are all presented as writings done by human prophets. The writings themselves may pretend to be based on traffic lights in the sky, but their "reliability" depends on how much faith gullible people will put in the supposed authors.
Most of these "ancient prophesies" were invented after the Summer of 2003 (we know, for example, that Nostradamus never ever wrote anything about 2012); they did not exist before 2003.
However, a few date back to the 1960s and 1970s and it is possible that one or two are based on Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds — and we know that there were really people who allowed their lives to be controlled in such a fashion…
Therefore, my answer to your second question is… not directly. They prefer to rely on some person’s interpretation of what the traffic lights really mean (even if that interpretation is clearly faked).

Bonus answer (for Lady Hawk):
The date is an actual round figure in a Mayan day-count calendar used by Mayan astronomers way back when.
The lie about the calendar ending was invented in the late 1980s by a dude (José) who claims to be a reincarnated Mayan priest (he is not, he was born in Minnesota). When he first worked it out, he had picked a date in 2011.
When real experts told him how wrong his "interpretation" of the calendar was, he changed his date to the round figure "Mayan day number 13.00.00.00.00" (which falls either on Dec. 21, 2012 or Dec. 23, 2012 depending how you interpret some thousand-year-old inscriptions). I prefer the Dec. 21 version because that day would also have been their New Year’s Day (in the common calendar — used by the plebe).
By the time the Planet X charlatans were building the Big 2012 Hoax, José’s date for the [fake] end of the Mayan calendar was already popular in the circles of "New Age" believers. By "importing" this date into the Big 2012 Hoax, they also imported all the New Age beliefs that were being invented for it.
In the Mayan Long Count calendar, there is a round figure every 394 years and a quarter. The last one was in 1618 (Mayan day number 12.00.00.00.00) and the next one will be in 2407.
who cares? astrology is fun. don,t base your life on it.

Most of the people supporting it want to sell their books, or sell something.
Or they’re just trolls trying to get people worried.
Astrology can be harmless fun, but some people do base alot on it.

There is no scientific evidence that the world will end in 2012. However, if you want my opinion, I don’t believe that this year can be accurately predicted anyway. There are just to many variables. Some people believe in Astrology because it has been accurate to them in the past, but the horoscopes are usually designed to be vague so that they will often "come true."

There is no telling what they believe. Most of the askers here have not got a clue where the story came from, it’s just something they "heard". If they knew where the story came from they probably would not bother to ask.
Yes, it is based on astrology but there have been a lot of jumpers on the bandwagon since then, all lying their heads off about this and that.

to what CENTRE are you referring, i think the answer is no, the 2012 celestial event that is coming, has people worried, from a whole array of angles, from myth, to legend, to speculation, to rumour, right through to scientists, it has plumed into a mushroom of what many things people can think up will actually happen, and i think the truth is that no one knows whats going to happen, but i think that the end of the world theory is outlandish. there are a few scary proofs of things that might happen, and could hold some consequences for how we live life, but further than that, it will be fine, and i might add that what can and will happen wont be any more serious than the problems we have already caused since we took a notion to invent technology and industry in the last blink of the worlds life, 100 years.
