    Plus the calendar didn't account for leap years..so we're all already dead.

    It is just the end of the long count calendar. They had many different calendars.

    But they weren't killed off.In fact the Mayans still in southern Mexico have been having a year-long celebration awaiting the return of Quetzalcoatl in December.
    Still not sure where the end-of-the-world scenario came from.

    You know, I wonder about that. I mean the "History Channel" & "Discovery Channel" are always going on about that. I don't remember anything about leap years either. Besides, Jesus said HE did'nt know about when the end would come, only His Father, so why would God give the scoop to a bunch of people who sacrificed human beings for any reason??

    1. "If the Mayans were so good at predictions, they should've predicted their own extinction"
    +
    2. "The Mayans only stopped at 2012 because they were unexpectedly killed off"
    =
    Preparing for the end of the world is pretty smart, you never know when it could happen.
