There’s a new movie coming out with Nicholas Cage called “Knowing”. It has that sort of theme. It’s not out, yet.
You might also be thinking of a movie coming out called “2012″.
If you’re doing a report on the so-called prophesy that Dec 2012 is the end of the world, that “prophesy” is based on people’s misinterpretation of the Mayan calender, which appears to people who don’t understand it, to end in the year 2012. In reality, the Mayan calender is a cyclic calender, which means it runs in a big cycle. Once it reaches the end of the cycle, it starts back at the beginning again. It’s like the way the week runs Sunday to Saturday, and then starts back at Sunday again. You wouldn’t think that just because we’ve reached Saturday, the world was going to end…you understand that the week starts over again with Sunday. The Mayan Calender does NOT end in 2012. There was no such “prophesy”. It’s a complete fabrication.
Certain end-time theorists have grasped onto the incorrect notion that the Mayan calender is predicting the “end of the world”, because they’re really desperate to come up with SOME date for the world to end.
Even if the Mayan calender DID predict that the world was going to end in 2012… why anyone would attach some grand meaning to the percived end of a calendar written by a pagan civilisation that was unable to even predict its own downfall is beyond logical comprehension. (Not that ANY end-time theorists in the whole of history are renowned for their logic or comprehension skills.)
