Penn & Teller invite Shannon McCabe to the “Bullshit” of 2012!
by Shannon McCabe
It’s Columbus Day as I sit down to write this article. The funny thing about it is, as Columbus was a discoverer so am I. My writing partner and I were just called by the Showtime Network, and they have asked us to go down to Cancun Mexico with them for the Penn & Teller, “Bullshit” show. They want us to discover the mystery of 2012. Now, if you have ever seen the Penn & Teller “Bullshit” show, you know that they will be ripping us a new one on just about everything we “discover”. Bring it on I say! Let me tell you a little about the Maya people and their calendar that ends on December 21st, 2012.

Famed for the accuracy of their astronomy and the sophistication of their measurement of time, the ancient Mayan civilization has been recognized as one of the most important ever to have existed. According to recently decoded stone monuments and manuscripts the Mayans believed a cataclysmic change will affect the planet on 22 December 2012.On this date the fifth great cycle of time which began on August 11th 3113 BCE will come to a violent end. In this comprehensive book, expert author David Douglas presents compelling evidence for the accuracy of the Mayan calendar in predicting major events in world history and examines the latest scientific research that suggests events such as magnetic field changes and solar flares will indeed culminate in 2012; events which could result in catastrophe for our planet. Featuring a step-by-step guide to understanding and decoding the calendar and thought-provoking insights into the wisdom of this ancient culture, "The Mayan Prophecy 2012" is essential reading for our time.

The Mayans were a very intelligent society that excelled in Mathematics and Astronomy. They were also very prolific writers. The Mayans were so well versed in Astronomy that they predicted that the center of our galaxy, the Milky Way, would come into alignment with our Sun possibly causing a huge Axis shift that could send us into catastrophe. They predicted this to happen in 2012.
On a metaphysical level, some think that 2012 will bring our planet to a higher spiritual transformation.

On December 21, 2012, the Mayan calendar will complete its thirteenth cycle. According to the Mayan belief system, the world will end. And if you don’t believe the Mayans, you can check in with The Bible Code, The Nostradamus Code, or The Orion Prophecy, all of which predict planet-wide doom. Then again, maybe the year 2012 is just a new opportunity. Could 2012 bring us good things instead of bad? This book gives readers a look at what the Mayan prophecy is all about, what it means to them, and much more.
•Addresses Mayan predictions about global warming and climate change
•Includes a glossary of terms and symbols, resources for a changing world, and exercises to assist the reader in their journey
•The existence of almost 600,000 websites on 2012 indicates a huge fascination with this subject

If you ever listen to Riley Martin on Sirius Station, Howard 101, he claims that in 2012 the world will come into a spiritual transformation, and that the Biaviian (pron. Be-Ah-Vi-An) aliens will actually come down out of the sky and let us on to their Mother Ship.
On a more scientific level some believe that 2012 could end in an apocalypse and the end of our modern world as we know it.

My question is what should humankind expect on Dec. 21, 2012, when the Maya's "Long Count" calendar marks the end of a 5,126-year era? Did they just run out of rock to carve and trees for their paper? God only knows…
Here Are Some Facts
Date founded:
250 AD rise of the Maya civilization
Place founded:
Southern Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, Western Honduras, & El Salvador
Supporters & Followers:
At one time up to 2 million. Today, several million Maya practice a Roman Catholicism that retains many elements of traditional Mayan religion.
Theism:
Polytheism, they believed in more than one god.
Main gods:
Itzamná, Kukulcán (Quetzalcóatl), Bolon Tzacab, Chac
Practices:
Astronomy, divination, human sacrifice, elaborate burial for royalty, worship in stone pyramid-temples, prolific writing on actual papyrus made from the local trees, carvings in stone that mark their daily activities.
Society Colapse:
The Mayan Society collapsed in 1200 AD, and the reasons are unknown.

In the late 18th Century explorers discovered pyramids, monoliths, temples, and plazas all deep in the Guatemalan Rainforest decorated in carved pictures and hieroglyphs. The ancient Mayans had been keeping very good records of their civilization through these carvings which brings me to the wonderful man named, Diego De Landa.
De Landa was a Spanish priest, and in July 1562 he found carvings of what he found to be the “Devil’s work”. These carvings were of human sacrifice. He was so self- righteous that he had 5000 Mayan Idols demolished, along with all but three of their papyrus books. This is probably why we don’t know much of the Mayan civilization today. Luckily the temples and pyramids were made of stone and were not easily destroyed and we can still visit them today.
On a good note, De Landa did not destroy one very important book, the Relación de las cosas de Yucatán (1566). It was reprinted in 1864 and gave us a phonetically accurate look at the Mayan Hieroglyphs. Another book that was very significant was the Dresden Codex. The Dresden Codex was named after the city it was found in.
In 1880 a German scholar named Ernest Forstemann cracked the code of the Mayan hieroglyphs so that many of the carvings on the existing pyramids could be translated into what we now know as the Mayan Calendar.
As I mentioned earlier, the Mayan Calendar is called a “Long Count” calendar. It spans over 5000 years and happens to end at December 21st, 2012. There are many ways to look at this: One, The end of our modern civilization as we know it. Two, the beginning of a spiritual awakening where the world will be peaceful and serene. Three, Nothing will happen and the world will go on just like it did on January 1st, 2000. Remember Y2K? Funny wasn’t it?
DECEMBER 12, 2012 THE TRUTH

There are many unsolved mysteries to this Mayan Calendar and the 2012 mystery. And I, Shannon McCabe, plan on finding out just what they are… Stay tuned, in the next month when I return from Chichen Itza I will recount everything I saw, felt, heard, and experienced at the Mayan Ruins. In fact, Showtime has gotten me a really cool HD, infrared camera to record a digital diary of the trip. I will also be bringing all my other equipment so that I can possibly capture some EVP’s and maybe even some UFO activity, remember the “Mother Ship” that Riley Martin talks of? And although Penn & Teller are probably going to rip me to shreds for my findings, I welcome them with open arms. I have been a very big fan of their skeptical humor, and those who know me, know I am a skeptic myself. I am sure as Bullshit that they will make me look like a complete idiot and I am lovin’ it! Chichen Itza here we come!
I’ll be reporting my findings soon… !Ariba!
