"At the time of this writing (December 2010), 2012 seems to glitter in the popular imagination like a giant disco ball, a spherical mosaic of mirrors reflecting myriad fears and hopes. Some mirrored tiles throw back images of fire and ice, earthquake, tsunami, pole reversals, solar flares and other splintered images of global calamity. Others shimmer with ethereal pastel hues and reflect images of rapture, transcendence and bliss.
Ever more obscured within the disco ball is the core, the ancient artifact, the cycle ending of the Long Count calendar, and its archetypal meaning. In the course of this essay, we will look briefly at the core, but mostly I will point the reader toward the best sources for encountering it in rigorous depth. I am much more interested in the reflections from the mirrored tiles, the contemporary phenomena of 2012, and what it says about the collective psyche.
Of course the reader must ask him or herself the same question that I must ask myself: Who am I to examine the projections of my contemporaries when I am just another person who projects his own images into the world? There is no degree, credential or qualification that closes that question. To proceed with any legitimacy, I must acknowledge my own bias and be vigilant in separating my own projections from those of the collective. The results will be imperfect, and I’ll assume that the reader is taking my words with a grain of salt, as they certainly should, since one person trying to analyze the projections of other people is a maximal case of subjectivity.
Having said that, I can at least state that I am more qualified to write about the reflections from the mirrored tiles than I am to make any contribution toward the study of the core—the artifact of the ancient Mayan culture. I don’t have any qualification to add anything to Mesoamerican archeology, but I have been writing about contemporary mythology from a mostly Jungian perspective for over thirty years."

Mankind likes control
— Dec 21, 2010
because to live in fear and insecurity sucks. That humans occupy a tiny fragile sliver of existence on a sphere whirling through space is not reassuring. That titanic forces can wipe away our existence is not pleasant thinking so when these forces prevail we react in fear, Art in turn reflects these anxieties, along with a good bit of profit taking by the film industry.
I did not miss the arch reference in the film. Nothing supports conventional religion more then a heavy dose of fear. It appears fear is being used to gather flocks and bring in new converts to oppose the voice of science and solidify a position. There is a new, growing twist of hiding religious messages within Apocalypse films, seemingly the religionists are "upping the ante" in opposition to the CO2 threat. The thinking goes something like this ......... We do not like these people (those scientists, environmentalist, etc., etc.) telling us we are destroying the world and must change according to their plan. The misconception is, If mankind destroys the world then apparently there is no God according to us so lets depict subjects that are beyond human control and scare them into believing as we do and at the same time divert their attention away from the larger issue at hand, Global warming.

Would you be happy if your creation was being destroyed?
Jeremiah 2:7 - I brought you into a fertile land to eat its fruit and rich produce. But you came and defiled my land and made my inheritance detestable
Leviticus 25:23-24 - The land must not be sold permanently, because the land is mine and you are but aliens and my tenants. Throughout the country that you hold as a possession, you must provide for the redemption of the land
I would define redeem as ........ make it right, revert it to the way it was.
This is what it says ............
Revelation 11:18 - The nations were angry; and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your saints and those who reverence your name, both small and great — and for destroying those who destroy the earth.
Genesis 9:13-16 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: And I will remember my covenant, which between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh. And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that upon the earth.
Romans 1:19-20 - since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
Have you seen a Rainbow?
