Crystal skulls. Ever since the commercials and trailers for the new Indiana Jones movie, “Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skulls” started to show up all over the place, there have been more people talking about it. Apparently, there are 13 skulls all made in conditions impossible for humans to recreate except in outer space. And, it’s also somehow connected to the Mayan legend that says the world will end on December 21, 2012. To stop the disaster and save humanity from destruction, we’re supposed to gather all 13 skulls and do some crazy thing and we’ll be saved.
Hm. Something seems odd.
Honestly, I believe this kind of stuff. I do think the world will end on 12,21,2012. In fact, there was a time when I believed this would really happen, so I did quite a bit of research on this myth. Not once have I come across a mention of Crystal Skulls being part of the myth, much less learning that the end of the world can be stopped by 13 of these. All this sounds suspicious to me.
Things like this happen often. Once something big happens and people figure out that they can make a couple of dollars off of it, they exploit it and make it the next big thing. Seriously! Do you guys remember the time back when car commercials didn’t include phrases such as, “eco-friendly,” “fuel efficient” “save for the environment.” Since when did people care? Ever since Al Gore’s PowerPoint Presentation, “The Inconvenient Truth.” Now, the “Eco-Revolution” of sorts has started. All over the place, you see things being sold as “eco-friendly”. Clorox is now selling an “eco-friendly” bleach that supposedly helps maintain frog habititat. Oh come on.
Just watch, we’ll be seeing things about the Crystal Skulls more often now. Not only on the SciFi channel, but soon, we’ll be seeing a large uprising of believers who whole heartedly think that the world will end in 12-21-2012 and that these 13 skulls are the only things that can save us. I’ll probably one of them too. If I’m not too lazy.
