Will the world really end on December 21,2012?

It is the dooms day that is foretold in the Mayan Calendar, the Chinese Oracle I Ching and even an intenet based prophetic software program, 2012 the date that is prophesized as the end of the world. There are many reasons why we should believe that the world will end.

But is there any science behind it? Could ancient oracles truely predic the future? Can you believe it? The answer could affect all of us.





The Sybilline Oracles

One of the most important Oracles of the ancient world was based in the Roman Empire. She was called the Sibyl.  She lived in the cave around the 6 century BC near Naples. Before she gave her prophecies, gods of Apollo use to take over her body. “The god possessed the Sibyl. She made utterances in the altered state.    Sibyl’s prophecies where collected in series of scrolls and housed in the temple of Jupiter. They were considered the most important books of the ancient Rome. Among the Sibyl’s prophecies, it was a distant apocalypse. She predicted that the world would last for 9 periods of 8 hundred years each. The 10th generation would begin approximately 2000 AD and it would be the last.
These things in the 10th generation shall come to pass.
 The earth shall be shaken by a great earthquake that throws many cities into the sea.
 There shall be war. Fire shall come flashing forth from the heavens, and many cities burn.
 Black ashes shall fill the great sky. Then know the anger of the Gods.”
-the sibylline oracles. Book IV



Apollo

Some people think it is happening now. We hear about the glacier melting. We are experiencing tsunamis, earthquakes, climates change..


One of the remarkable things about the sibyl is that she wrote her pronouncement on the oak leaves. If oak leaves blew into the wind, they will not reassemble so the messages were often scrambled.


Her prophecies would not mean much if her prophecies does not have such a good track record.

In the 6th century BC, the sibyl predicted the invasion of Italy by Hannibal, 700 years before it happened and she predicted his ultimate defeat.
She predicted the rise of Emperor Constituent by the name 800 years before he was born.

Her greatest prophecy gave her a place of honor among early Christians. Sibyl gave prophecies about a coming of new golden age and a child will be born to initiate the golden age. It was a prophecy of coming of Jesus Christ 20 years before his birth. That caused her to be revered by early Christians and even Michelangelo gave her a prominent place in the 16th chamber.

No one knows how she saw into the future. But new archeological discovery suggest that the source of her prophecy was gas and not god. The evidence comes from another Oracle of the ancient world. This one at Delphi, Greece.

The most famous oracle of all was oracle of Delphi. At Delphi it is told that the god of Apollo could  inspire and person, who could be the priestess of the Apollo who could foresee the future. Delphi is a small village about a 100 miles away from modern Athens.From the 8th century BC to 4th century AD, pilgrims travelled there from though out the Mediterranean to post question to the priestess of the Apollo. The priestess entered into underground chamber and enters here altered state.  In the altered state she would give prophecies that were intriguing and often surprisingly accurate. In her altered state she would often talk about chewing of laurel leaves and people have commented that this may have had psychotropic effects.

There is other evidence of psychotropic effects. In 1998 a geological team discovered two fault lines running under the temple of Delphi which let to underground storage of ethylene gas. In large quantities the gas is powerful hallucinogens that produce visions.

Like Delphi, the cave of the Sibyl was also underground connected with volcanic gas and fault lines.
