The Penultimate Peril?

So, we are the takers, and we've taken advantage of the world more and more, until now, when the world "lies bleeding beneath our feet."
The Mayan calendar ends o. January 21st, 2012. Of course, the world was supposed to end in Y2K. Hmm, last time I checked, we're still here. The devil was supposed to come and destroy the world at 06/06/06 as well. Of course, Hillary Clinton did get back into politics, but last time I checked, we're still here.
However, if we accept the DQ hyopthesis that we're nearing the end of our "civilizational flight," could this be it? There's a trailer for the movie "2012," and it showcases a waterfall coming and flooding the entire Earth. Well, if all of our space probes and flights have somehow disturbed the voiud of Outer Space, it is fairly conceivable that a giant meteor could come down and smash into Earth. It's not so crazy to think that a Meteor landing in an Ocean with that much force could well flood the world. And whose fault would it be? Ours, the takers. Why? Because we've conquered where we were never meant to interfere. We've all heard "Boldly going where no man has gone before." Hmm. So we boldy go wherever we please, conquering as we please, without relalzing that we may well be enacting our own destruction.
Many of us have seen the sequel to "Bruce Almighty," namely "Evan Almighty." In that movie, God came down and told Evan, the modern-day Noah, that he was going to flood the Earth once again. In the end, it was really a giant metaphor for the local Dam breaking and destroying dirty politics in Washington. However, even such a relatively small event had large-scale effects. If the end of the world is coming, via 2012 or our civilizational plane crash, could it be for the better? Perhaps we need a large-scale disaster to knock us back into our senses. Perhaps we are meant to be rulers of the world, but have not enacted this "destiny" correctly, just like the son of a King, born to rule the throne, but does such a bad job with the crown that his people overthrow him and put in place a new King. The end doesn;t have to be an explosion of Earth or the death of all taht is on it. Could this be the different kind of "end" that Quinn talks of?
