The Mayan calendar never predicted the world is ending in 2012, it's just that they made a calendar, calculated it to the 21st of December, 2012, and then it ended. It's the end of one of their Long Counts, the 13th I believe. With some mathematical corrections, it's also possible that it's the 23rd of December 2012, not the 21st. Anyhoo, there's been nukes since World War 2. Then other countries developed them, everyone making loads, just in case, so that there isn't a gap between them and their enemies, but the Cold War ended. Ever since the nuke was developed though, you would expect that it would be used. But the fear of retribution, the fear of being the one possibly responsible for a nuclear war that would kill of most life on Earth, the fear of going down in history as the person who launched a nuke... The whole MAD psychology... Mutual fear of it, each other, themselves, humanity keeps the nukes in check. I honestly think they aren't going to be launched any time soon. But, just in case, keep an eye on the clock... 5 minutes to midnight, and not just nuclear war are reasons to advance to midnight anymore... Why would a nuclear war be imminent now? Gas prices? Nuking the oil fields will get us more? Food prices? Starting a nuclear war is really a good way to fertilize the crops... The bible? It's been passed down, so irrevocably altered, plus parts were changed, in order to fit with the message that the Church wanted throughout it, especially at the Council of Nicea. If you honestly believed half the conspiracy theories about the bible, you'd be organizing mass demonstrations to get people to repent before it's too late... Fresh water? Honestly, you'll have less if war is started, especially nuclear war. Yum, freshly radiated water! Ooh, a special- only 200 rads in that bottle!
