The traditional beliefs surrounding "judgment day", in my opinion, seem to be distorted and fear-mongering.
I like to think that in the year 2011 there are much more of us who have evolved past the primitive state of needing churches and priests and saints and gurus to find our wisdom and answers.
Our planet has its own energy and "life" just like us, and it is also evolving, *just like us*. It is bound to experience dynamic changes which may cause us turmoil and difficulty, but this has nothing to do with God "judging" us. This is the Earth evolving along with humanity to edge closer to being a world and a species of Light and Life.
The positive side of disaster is that it shatters our illusions and fantasies of things which do not matter, and forces us to face the truth that we are all brothers and sisters at our source.

Good post Lucky and for the most part i agree. Yet we do get help from the saints and gurus so their wisdom guidance and protection is very important to our spiritual journeys. We r very much in in spiritual ignorance of what is reality. The mind and thoughts cannot tunnel us out of sane existence. By the guidance of enlightened beings we can find and get help and guidance out of our own illusions and ignorance. To think that we can some how do it on our own is ego consciousness and yet one more illusion and self deception. We have know idea what ignorance and illusions surround us and which ones we will be sucked into and encounter next. Yet a saint or guru does and can navigate us through the dark storm clouds of self deceptions.
Affirmation: I am safe in the fortress of my Gurus protection. Nothing can touch me.
