So Where Were You When The World Didn't End? A Scoff at the Mayan Calendar

This should be more a scoff at the idiots that interpreted the Mayans wrong.

Bingo! There's the right answer.

The Mayan calendar never predicted an apocalypse for today. The idea of an apocalypse was put into the mouths of the Maya by ignorant others.

Actually, scientists believe that it is possible that their calendar, clock or whatever you want to call it is more accurate than our own.

The perfect gift you can give a Mayan this Christmas is........a new calendar!

Leap years do not matter to the Mayan Long Count calendar. It is not based on the sun or the moon. It simply counts days. This is why it is amazingly accurate, as mentioned above.

Happy Mayan New Year. Can't believe people butchered this wonderful occasion and labeled it the end times.
