Many Dutch prepare for 2012 apocalypse

June 23, 2008 

Thousands of people in the Netherlands say they expect the world to end in 2012, and many say they are taking precautions to prepare for the apocalypse. The Dutch-language de Volkskrant newspaper said it spoke to thousands of believers in the impending end of civilization, and while theories on the supposed catastrophe varied, most tied the 2012 date to the end of the Mayan calendar, Radio Netherlands reported Monday. De Volkskrant said many of those interviewed are stocking up on emergency supplies, including life rafts and other equipment. Some who spoke to the newspaper were optimistic about the end of civilization. “You know, maybe it’s really not that bad that the Netherlands will be destroyed,” Petra Faile said. “I don’t like it here anymore. Take immigration, for example. They keep letting people in. And then we have to build more houses, which makes the Netherlands even heavier. The country will sink even lower, which will make the flooding worse.”

    It was quite interesting reading this. I live in The Netherlands, and I’m for almost 99% sure that no one knows about what is coming. None of my friends or relatives know about this, only me…

    And about building houses, which makes The Netherlands heavier, you know that that is bullshit.

    There are two things concerning “2012″ and the “End of times”:
    - New World Order
    - Doomsday

    New World Order:
    Theories bring us a story in where the ruling elites are going to take over the world, with a one world government, with one religion. They will also kill over 85 or 90% of the total civilization to let there plans accomplish. The New World Order will be completed just before the end of 2012. Great changes are as following:
    September 2008: The Fall of the US economy > 2010-2011: The creation of the North American Union and possible the Asian Union > 2012: The creation of a one world government.

    Doomsday:
    Mayans predicted the end of the age we are living in now. They say that there’s a large planet, called Nibiru or Niburu which is going to fly past the Earth, giving us a present “Poleshift”. This is the worst scenario on Earth. Over 90% of the total civilization would die. As you can read everywhere on the Web, the exact date of the Doomsday is:

    21 December 2012

    In fact, it could not mean the end of everything. But it could mean the beginning of a new age, The Golden Age, or age of peace.

    I guess we shall see what happens in about 4 years…

    Nibiru,web bot,orical proficies,bible,myan calender,i ching and exterterrestrials.
    So many different sorces are predicting the change there might be.Putting aside fasintions of an apocolyptic event and accepting the fact that behind every myth is a little truth.Governments don’t ever realy solve the problem even if they say they are and the public cause caos when ever there is order to help progress in life. The bible preches about this event and I see a scientifict reason that kinda fits the discription in the book.There are alot of coincedences that support alot of prediction and alot of crap that is only added to the mess to make some one else laugh.If this whole thing is true then mabey every one including the gov. should man the fu(k up and work it out as a team.You can tell some one to wake up and will do anything but that. Its more than posible that nibiru can be real verses the magical stories the bible says will happen.I always belived that science and religion co exist somewhere.Mabey the bible is a ridle telling us that these events are going to happen and no one has caught in yet.Mabey the bible was code for us to figure out like a detective that the clue was there the whole time and its just plain science that this is just a reacuring event.What ever the reason where all smart and need to get a grip on life.There is a happy medium there and no one is elite compared to another if we work together and have no need for secrets.Is it true or not?If it isnt why the hell are there people causing unessesary panic like its fun.How big of a losser do you have to be to think fabricating such a convincing story just to get a rise?If it is real then why cant the truth come out?I’ll tell you.Because the majority of the public will riot.Stupid fu(king
    people will cause destuction instead of finding a solution.Mabey keeping it a secret is a good thing because some people should probably perish and call me an ass hole but if your not apart of the solution your part of the problem. Reguardless I hope its true and we get a fresh new start and I hope I’m there to witness it.No more waisting time on people who hold back progeress or excusses from every one why they cant do whats right with there life.If its true we will soon find out.GOOD LUCK!!!
