2012 Apocalypse


What a relief, earth survived post 21 Dec 2012, proving apocalypse wrong, does it? From where did this prediction born, why it was given so much importance? We all know it is from Mayan’s calendar, why this 21st century civilization is so concerned about something which was written by civilization lived nearly 5000 yrs ago? Are we not more advanced than them both on technology and culture? (I leave the answer for this question to the readers as there are plenty of articles in web) But still, from NASA to common man, every one feared this to their level of intelligence and belief. There were several TV interviews on which even NASA was unable to nullify this and said there might be some radioactive waves from sun which might affect radio (TV, Mobile and all) signals. However I haven't heard of any such things neither on 21st nor post 21st.

Are we now safe from this Apocalypse? Scientists still debate on this, but what kind of debate is this? Do we understand the apocalypse that predicted? It is scientifically proved and accepted that Mayans are highly intelligent and possessed cutting edge technology that doesn't belong to their era. If so then how come they predict so foolishly that earth will burn out in one day, as if it formed in one day. It took millions of years for this planet to be eligible for living, another million of years for Homo sapiens to emerge further million years for humans, and we expect the earth to destroy in one day with no proper evidence. If expected Apocalypse is not a one day thing, then how many days it is for? What kind of apocalypse it is? Does it begin already? I believe it did begin already.

The apocalypse is not for humans, it is for humanity, where few are killing it and for the rest it doesn't make any sense any more, from social animal we fell as anti social element, killings over religion, shoot outs on kids, riots over race, many more across the globe and in India it is even worse, we don’t even have the basic social responsibility, neither at home nor on roads, we think it is our birth right to block the opposite side of the road, like shameless creature blocking the way for vehicles, I always wonder is there any law to book these idiots if patient dies in ambulance because of this blockage. We never put ourselves in the place of those in ambulance.

We litter, spit on streets, not showing any concern on our fellow person who walks bare foot (some because of poverty, some for religious reasons) how disgusting it would be for them. Driving while pedestrian crossing and many more, we even drive on foot paths hazarding pedestrians.  Recent atrocious over women, I’m not talking about the Delhi incident alone, 100+ victims in Bosnia war, 1000+ victims in Sri Lankan civil war, unknown number in Afghanistan war and many others around the world, per my knowledge only humans indulge in gang rapes, Where is humanity here?.

Illegal poaching, deforestation, global warming, the list becomes endless, our inhumane endangers humans and other species on this earth. Earth can survive without humans and it was for millions of years, and so the other species but humans cannot. We are dependent on this earth and its resources, and so on society, so it is not just enough we worry about global warming and climatic changes,   we should be more responsible to build a society filled with ethics and morals.  I don’t see this happening, every human lives like zombie may be he is not feeding on human, but on humanity. which is even worse. With human, just goes one life but with humanity the whole race. Apocalypse started it is good if we stop it, rather allowing it to find its end.
