Given the connections with the year 2012 and the Mayan calendar, it's possible to view the 'Olympic Rings' under a new light.

The 5 rings 'officially' represent the 5 continents, but as with all things occult, is there a duality?

The logo was designed by Baron Pierre de Coubertin, a French Freemason and founder of the 'modern Olympics'.

His statue at the Centennial Olympic Park, Atlanta is very revealing. Notice the 'step pyramid', surrounded by the 'Two Towers' with the Olympic rings flocked by doves above.
The ancient Mayan calendar incorporates a 25,765 year cycle known to us as the 'Great Year'. This cycle is composed of 5 lesser cycles of around 5,125 years each. The current cycle is due to end on 21st December 2012 at 11:11am UST.

Do the 'Olympic Rings' signify the 5 cycles of the Earth's death and rebirth, with each of the cycles connected like a chain? Who has been in control of the Earth through these cycles? Who is the 'Lord Of The Rings'?
