Coincidence Much?

This calculation has no weight on prophecy or any such thing. If you had more dates and events that could be mathematically calculated down to the supposed end of days date, then this might be more intriguing, but looking at but two events in correlation does very little to say anything. People have tried to predict the end of days for centuries, even longer, perhaps, and it still hasn't totally happened. Given the flow of history, I wouldn't be surprised to witness something incredible and world-changing happening in 2012, but the end of days? I think not.

I think that a lot of what's been happening is being overblown into the end of days for one reason: Because everyone, pretty much everywhere in the world, knows what's happening else where. People in Britain have certainly heard that the United States is suffering economic turmoil. People in the United States more than aware of the events proceeding in Egypt and the rest of the Middle East (these are just examples). I think that this whole end of days business is becoming more of a media boom than an actual prophecy. There's been trouble and turmoil for about as long humanity has lived in organized societies, and the only reason it seems like so much more is because we can all see for ourselves the troubles of the rest of the world.

I'm saying that 9/11 wasn't a great atrocity, and that the tsunami in Japan isn't a tragic event. But it is all being blown to the point of "OMG we'ze all gonna die!" which it just shouldn't be.
