Occam's razor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Occam's razor
(or Ockham's razor[1]) is the principle that "entities must not be multiplied beyond necessity" (entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem). The popular interpretation of this principle is that the simplest explanation is usually the correct one. However, this is often confused, as the 'simple' "is really referring to the theory with the fewest new assumptions." [2]

hi all.
Today I had a thought on this "2012 business". I have an Idea as to what might happen, as the Aztec/Mayan calender rolls over to the next cycle.
*got to be a huge event*, as this cycle-point is a complete roll-over, compared to
the last smaller cycle that happened around the time of the coming of the Spaniards, 1490, or so.
cycles within cycles, this 2012 is a major cycle, as i understand it.
Probably will happen to the whole human race, this time, not to just a group of Indians in central America!
"KISS"
---keep it simple, stupid"!
or...
"the simplest answer is most often the right one"...

my "simple answer?!
-----As the Spanish invaders came around 1490 AD for the Indians, perhaps
a huge alien star fleet will appear to hover over the earth and their Representatives will tell the world that they come from a civilization of 150 planets and that now the earth will be part of their empire!
they might insist that starting nimmediately,
---one money system.
--one government with no more country boundaries.
---technology 1000+ years more advanced than ours.
---they will bring in 100 million emigrants and also insist that 70% of the human race migrate to the 150 planets, our 7 billion people proportioned out to the 150 planets.
End of the human race as we know it!!
[we become the "Aztec/Mayans" in 1900 Mexico!!]
This is not a prediction or prophecy: just Occam's Razor, Applied!
