much given to speak the Mayan calendar and its predictions misinterpreted the end of the world we all are saying for 2012 according to the interpretation that takes place in an arbitrary manner is not so because the research does not point to the end of the world but anticipating the end of an era.
U.S. author Steve Alten, whose last two novels revolve around a supposed prophecy Mayan doomsday in 2012, the end of the calendar of the culture, said in Mexico that this refers to the end of a historical era and not the end of humanity.
During the presentation in this country of The Testament and the Resurrection maya maya, the first and second part of a tetralogy whose third volume is just beginning to write, Alten (Philadelphia, 1959), sports medicine doctor, said the December 21, 2012 is "a point of no return" for humanity, but not necessarily mean to the species.
"Obviously I do not know what will happen, but I think it may be an internal and external change in humans, although not necessarily physical, tried to explain during the presentation held at the National Museum of Anthropology . He said that after a period of darkness, there comes a period of light, so that 2012 can be a positive change.
cited as an example the eight-year rule in the United States George W. Bush, in his opinion the years most "dark" of his country, which were followed by the election of the first African American president, Barack Obama.
Alten said that in 2012 will have elections in his country, and that he hopes Obama will be reelected to continue making "major changes are needed."
In his opinion change in the human being has to happen to resort to spirituality, to be more environmentally friendly and "love more."
"It's important not to take the end of the Mayan calendar as a prophecy of the end of world, but to look good, "he said, but later indicated that in his opinion and according to Mayan culture is cyclical and humanity is doomed to repeat past mistakes until you find the solution.
said that some theories suggest that the decline of this civilization was due to end of resources, and the same is happening now, with the use of fossil fuels.
added that if the human species is to extinction, will have to reduce their numbers in the short term of 6 billion people who inhabit Earth at 500 million.
also noted that those who survive will be those who can produce their own food, and so will the Indians and peasants.
