Is 2012 going to be the end of the world as we know it? An increasing number of celebrities believe so.  If you do a search on the Internet, you will find a ton of celebrities who have offered up some really bizarre opinions about the year 2012. 

Others believe that in 2012 the earth will experience a pole shift, and there are yet others that believe that "Planet X" will arrive that year.  The following video that contains footage from the History Channel does a great job of summarizing some of the common beliefs about 2012....

So what will happen in 2012?

Will UFOs make open contact with humanity?

Will the earth experience a devastating pole shift?

Will our alignment with the center of the Milky Way galaxy cause natural disasters of unprecedented magnitude?

Will that be the year that Planet X is revealed?

Will it be the end of the world as we know it?

One thing seems certain - hysteria regarding the year 2012 is likely only to increase as we get closer to that date.

In fact, some people (including some very famous and well-known people) are likely to totally flip out about this whole thing.

So will some bad things happen in 2012?

Perhaps.  A lot of really bad stuff is going to happen in our future, and some of it very well could happen in 2012.

But it won't be the end of the world.
