Steve's Place

The reason I ask about Dec 21, 2012 is because a year or so ago I heard about an asteroid that's been discovered and is being tracked that is calculated to come excrutiatingly close to Earth in 2012.

So when I saw the Discovery Channel special on the Mayan Long Count Calendar it clicked and I thought it was very interesting.

The Mayan Calendar is said to be so accurate that it far exceeds our own and predicts successfully astronomical events so far into the future that nobody can figure out how they were able to create it.

Also, I want to know if any other religions have any mention of the date/year.

Here's a link to the asteroid info.
