JOHN LERRATO'S WEBSITE
Is the end of the world in 2012? That’s
one hot FAQ currently doing the rounds on the web. Well, my answer is "not
really!" It’s definitely uncertain that the world will end in 2012,
sooner, or much later. No one, on earth, knows; not even the servants of
the most high. So calm down! The "end of the world 2012" is a
bit of guessing!
But looking at the current state of the world, I have strong reasons to
believe my new work is going to be invaluable in making this world end in
a better state; when it finally does.
Over the course of the next few months—using my website, personal blog and new book—I hope to pass around new insights into our inabilities, destiny, and possible solutions to our many challenges. I'll be challenging the citizens of this world; hoping that, together, workable and credible solutions can be spawned to turn around our bleak future. This could be timely; now that climate change, diseases and other calamities are indefatigably worsening.
You will agree that the world is full of “end of the world theories” and many failed premonitions that it’s possible to miss out on the true signs of the end times; if it actually happens, of course. Many people have dismissed past prophesies and thrown away the belief in a God all together. This has cast us into a precarious situation. Does God exist? That's the ever nagging question in many peoples' minds now!
Well, my approach does not attempt to bring you back on-board by quoting experts from religious books—like the Bible and Koran—to remind and scare you into believing that the "end of the world 2012" is an accurate premonition. I also don't fancy you reading complex papers on why there must be a creator. That, according to me, is a turn off.
Instead, I use a logical pattern to help you join the dots for yourself. For example, if a God is really the Alpha and Omega, then it means that he could actually be the leading influence in all world creation stories. This includes those who believe a God does not exist; however weird that sounds.
We could all be right and merely describing the elephant like the men in Aesop’s “Blind men and Elephant fable.” Maybe that story was told centuries ago so that, today, I would relate it to the world creation stories. That’s the logic I am riding on and hope to bring to your understanding.
If we were truly given a free-will, to rule this universe—as it seems currently—then it means we can decide to believe in what we want and not be harmed. If you were to suddenly believe that, that snail, determinedly making its way on your garden is God, then it will be just that; according to you. It’s even possible that you could be right, since a truly powerful being can be anything and everything he deems fit. If that will make you see your creator's role in your life, then he could just do that for you! What is not certain is if he, she, or it will make the “end of the world in 2012” a reality for your sake!
You will not be struck down to death if you tested what you've just read. Give it a try, by naming anything you see “God,” and see what happens. Nothing happens but it leads us to one chilling reality; the fact that we could be victims of a big test by a Being far greater and smarter than us.
Consider this point of view. If you were God and wanted genuine love from man, would you destroy the world for it? Would you even consider such obvious clues? Wouldn’t you simply put traps in the night and hope that we trip over them in the day. Wouldn’t you hand us sugar-coated pills and see if we would swallow them to get the good life that we seek—though that would be easy! Wouldn’t it be better to “chili-coat” them instead and see if we are smart enough! If this is the case with regards to our creator, then it's about time we knocked onto the walls and told whoever or whatever it is out there, that we get it. Merely waiting for a bell to ring in order to get food—like a monkey would, in a controlled lab test—isn’t clever enough.
Our creator might be letting us think anything, hoping that we eventually figure it all out on our own. It could be why some people believe in no god, some believe in one and each thinks the other wrong; not considering that both scenarios are possible for a truly Supreme Being. With that regard, are we willing to seek the truth with the same zeal that we search the word “sex” on the internet? I did some research and discovered the word “sex” was searched 211,573 times on the net; while “God” was searched only 2002 times in the month of July 2009. At least “end of the world 2012” was actually searched quite a lot. It shows we are still interested in our destiny. I did the same query for major concerns like “Global Warming,” or “Global Warming solutions” and found these internet searches also wanting.
Well, in “The End” I give many “everyday” scenarios that pits us on one side of a court and probably a God and his, angels or minders on the other. If this is the case—or close to it—then someone could have just removed his hat in heaven or where God, or Gods reside. This must be the turning moment when the hero starts to win against his nemesis! So much so, that the television, and entertainment as a whole, could have been invented to make me say that. Or make us constantly believe that the good trample the bad in the end!
I will thus not tire, trying and bring it to the attention of the world that some superior force or being could have turned to everyday, current affairs, issues to corner us. These issues could include the “internet” and surfing the web for “sex or pornography!” Or the spectacle that is “nuclear energy;” “Global warming;” and the “Barrack Obama peace prize.” He, she, or it could even be in "the world of entertainment,” for that matter!
In other words, some powerful being could also be in the know that honey attracts more flies than vinegar. So contemporary methods like the Bible, Koran, Jesus Christ etc. could have been shelved or put at the flanks. Our creator could be behind star wars movie, love horoscopes, love itself, or even in the act of sex. Yes, I’ve heard God being mentioned during “sex” acts before!
"The End," is thus not about some doomsday per se. It's more geared towards the type of apocalypse that scores of people have been waiting for or hope for. Yes, the apocalypse is what I meant to say!
Sorry, if you're not ready! That’s all I can say to you. You invented the internet, then Facebook and Twitter! Now a Supreme Being—and not only the devil—has the best medium of all time to nail you. All that remains is to simply watch how far you will continue before there is a need to change the complexity of the test again. Of course if no Supreme Being exists, then this is the chance to establish the truth.

into our destiny. Here's one such article titled " A
