2012: The 2012circus for dummies by Archaeological Haecceities on Nov 12, 2009Tomorrow Emmerich’s ultimate disaster movie has worldwide premiere. Most reviews have already given it thumbs down and based on what I have seen of the movie so far I am not likely to give it a positive remark. For those not acquainted with what t...

2012: Thank you Emmerich by Archaeological Haecceities on Nov 4, 2009I have now read the first review of the 2012 movie and it is being treated as expected: “We haven’t laughed so hard in a long time. The latest global disaster movie from director Roland Emmerich (Independence Day, The Day After Tomorrow)...

2012: Conspiracy pt 1 by Archaeological Haecceities on Nov 1, 2009One of the recurrent themes in the 2012 circus is conspiracy theory. The most popular conspiracy theory today is the one related to the 9/11 event (and in my post on numerology you can see that number 11 is important for these hoaxers). The 9/11 cons...

2012: How to spot a prophet’s Maya hoax – ethnocentrism and Annunaki by Archaeological Haecceities on Oct 28, 2009Not long after CNN posted the El Mirador videos on internet the site was caught up in the 2012circus. Just the fact that it appears to have been completely unheard of before this is just revealing how ignorant the 2012ers are. The site has been known...

2012: How to spot a prophet’s Maya hoax: false dilemmas and straw men by Archaeological Haecceities on Oct 18, 2009The easiest way to detect a 2012 prophet’s logical fallacy is to look for false dilemmas and straw men in their arguments. A false dilemma is when one characterizes the opposite position (that would be science or the “orthodox” view as they oft...

2012: Ancient alien theory vs mainstream archaeology by Archaeological Haecceities on Oct 14, 2009Now, this is fun. It is a satire on creationism but unfortunately this is pretty much how the UFO – 2012hoaxers argue. In a “debate” I had with a hoaxer the flying spaghetti monster was actually brought up… I found this on...

2012: 2012 (new movie trailer) by Archaeological Haecceities on Oct 13, 2009Here is a new trailer of the 2012 movie. Some earlier trailers can be see seen in this post. I have not much more to add in terms of comments apart from the mass suicide at Tikal. This is definitely an indication of the strong Western/Christian/Sect...

2012: “Baktuniarism” – or why I changed my mind regarding cosmology by Archaeological Haecceities on Oct 11, 2009One might ask why I am so irritated by the 2012 circus? Is this “end date” not important to the past and present Maya? Well, it had some importance to the ancient Maya, but not more than other so-called period endings that they celebrated every 5...

2012: How to spot a prophet’s Maya hoax – thinking outside the box by Archaeological Haecceities on Sep 26, 2009Central to the 2012 phenomenon is that many proponents are self-proclaimed novel thinkers. They say that they think outside the box, a box usually created by science or by society in general. It comes in many different versions: Calleman creates his...

2012: Playboy and the apocalypse as seen from the viewpoint of the porn industry by Archaeological Haecceities on Sep 18, 2009In early June I created a post concerning the website Apocalypse porn. Little did I know back then that the porn industry itself would be attracted to the 2012 circus (maybe I was prophetic in my own way). One of the most reputable porn magazines in...
