Rapture = Religious bunk.

The rapture is a biblical principle (where believers disappear from earth and appear in heaven)
Only God know the true start date of the end times.
The date that you are referring to was created by a man named Harold Camping.
Camping has predicted the Rapture will occur on May 21 2011 and that the
"end times" will start inOct 21 2011.
Don't let it get to you, He also predicted the exact same thing to occur in September 1994,
but were all still alive and kicking aren't we?

"The Rapture" is a weird concept from some strange evangelical Christian sect. You won't find anyone on a science site like this who knows or cares anything about it. You might try asking in the "Religion & Spirituality" category, but they're likely to laugh at you too.
"2012" is a hoax designed to scare children and adults who know nothing about science. There is no science behind it, and no scientists believe in it.
The world has existed for over four billion years. Is it reasonable to expect that it will come to an end next year? And all because of a Mayan calendar? Use some common sense.
The most interesting astronomical events in 2012 will be an annular eclipse of the Sun on 2012 May 20, a total eclipse of the Sun on 2012 Nov 13, and a transit of the planet Venus across the face of the Sun on 2012 Jun 06.
Scientists don't expect anything out of the ordinary to happen in the year 2012, or specifically on the date December 21, except for the solstice, which happens every year.
None of the "predicted" happenings for 2012 hold up under close scrutiny. "Planet X" and "Nibiru" simply don't exist. The Mayan calendar ends a cycle, but there were no predictions of the end of the world. The Sun doesn't line up with the galactic centre; it's 5 degrees off, and happens on December 18 EVERY year. No asteroids or comets are actually predicted to hit Earth.
