The 2012 New World Order

Many people have come to believe that the world will end in 2012, much of those speculations are due to the famous Mayan calendar. The Mayan calendar does not go past the date December 21, 2012 thus causing some to come to the realization that the world will cease to exist beyond that date. While some critics say that it is merely coincidental and has nothing to do with anything, they have failed to realize that the end date of the calendar does have an important value. The Mayans themselves did not believe that this date is when the end of the world will occur, rather that the date means the ushering of a new cycle in the worlds history. It means that the Mayans have predicted that the planets will align themselves in a specific way that is so rare that it occurs only in 30 out of every 26,000 years. During this unusual alignment, the Sun will pass through the equator of the Milky Way galaxy. Some believers of the apocalyptic 2012 say that this will cause some sort of cataclysmic event. Other believers say that this is the day that their savior or lord will appear and begin a day of final judgment, which is coincidently transcribed through some few religious texts.

In my personal opinion, I am one of the few thousand believers that a whole other age will be ushered in, an age that has only been derived in the greatest of horror films, the age of the zombie. While this may sound silly, in some ways it makes perfect sense. Although banned by the Geneva Convention in 1975, biological warfare agents are still within easy grasp, the U.S. stockpiling over a million gallons of some agents, and other countries are bound to still have some stockpiled or even still in the process of creating some new, horrible agent. Chemical agents for "mind control" have been played with, most of the results ending in utter failure. There have been some that have been tested to initialize the breakdown of society. This agent is spread through the air, water, or food supply, and has a special hormones inducing absolute rage within those who ingest this toxin. This hormone is pumped throughout the blood stream and CAN be spread through open wounds, saliva, blood transfer, or ingestion. Although not the traditional brain eating zombies that fans have come to know and love, it still is a sort of zombie state of being, since the subject is technically not in control of their own body, emotions, or mind. I believe that this agent may either get into the hands of some terrorist organization and used against their enemies, used as a weapon against a small uprising then spread by contact or wind drafts, or accidentally released and spread through initial victims to others. While this may be a wild theory, a long shot of sorts, Einstein did say "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."
