What do you think about the Mayan 2012 end of world prophecy?

As an engineer, I’m naturally skeptical of claims until I see strong supporting evidence. So when I came across this link on the web, my b.s. detectors started working overtime. But, alas, I’m not able to pick out the weakness in the argument on this page. Can it really be coincidence? Is the author tricking the readers some way? I don’t know enough about astronomy to debunk this. Have a look:

Thanks guys! Lots of great answers; it was very hard to choose a best answer.

Interesting vision of the 2012 apocalypse, can anyone help me out and explain or share your experiences?

This seems like the strangest thing in the world for me. After reading about the maya 2012 prophecy for the very first time 9 years ago, there has been a strange thought that had come to mind. I don’t know why, but as a major Red Hot Chili Peppers fan, I had somewhat of a strange vision this one time. In this vision, right before the supposed end of the world, I encounter a very strange and frightening coincidence: the song “Fortune Faded” is being played by at least one radio station for every radio transmission zone simultaneously right before a fiery end from above by a comet or asteroid. MTV also plays the Fortune Faded video right before the end. My question is – has anybody else had a similar vision, or is this just a figment of my strange imagination? If so, please tell me about the experience as best you can. And no, I was not on drugs at the time. Please tell me if you imagined the same or a similar song playing right before the Earth’s apocalyptic destruction?

Chili Peppers fans, have you ever had a similar vision of the apocalypse?

2012 – Change or Cataclysm?

Just thought I’d throw an interesting subject out there. I’ve always been interested in the complexity of theories that have been floating around. I’ve probably heard them all, but I’d like to hear what you people think. If it’s a change, what kind of a change do you expect? Do you think that all of the information about 2012 is just a coincidence? Do you believe that the mayans could predict some sort of cataclysm? What about Edgar Cayce’s predictions about Atlantis and their demise? How would that coincide? With the exception of Christianity (and perhaps including them!) is the impending doom as close as some think? The questions progress, continuously, and unending. I know its ironic to be looking for more questions in Yahoo! Answers, but maybe I’m just an ironic guy. Besides, from what I understand, Yahoo! Answers is just a very elaborate message board with a neat point system for posting. Right?
I’m not sure that you guys understand what I’m really getting at. I should have worded it differently, Do you think we’ll survive 2012 and do you think that there will be a large cataclysmic change, or just a small change when the sun passes the galactic equator. See, while the Mayan calender may appear to end at 2012 with a significant ‘number,’ its actually a specific date which starts the cycle of their calander over and also starts our solar system’s cycle over. Maybe you guys should do a little research before answering a question.
