I've read about it but am not sure where to draw the line.

Well, I hate to say just 'read', but that's what I honestly recommend. Lots of people have given lots of thoughts on this matter on various threads.

Read the 2012 megathread, the Camelot thread over in Conspiracies, and there are also one or two other 2012-Planet X threads.

I've stated MY opinions multiple times, and it's been my experience that people who believe in Nibiru/Planet X/2012 Doomsday do not want to hear my opinion ... or the facts I present for that matter. It's like some kind of cult in the way people believe in this with 'religious' devotion, rather than being willing to look at the facts.

The facts of the case, in a nutshell:
*Nibiru was a term used by Sumerians to refer to their Gods, to refer (in the opinion of some) to Jupiter, and so on. Some people theorize that they saw a comet. I have seen no evidence that suggests that they were ever referring to a distant 10th planet in our solar system.

*Planet X is a theoretically planet that was theorized in order to explain inconsistencies in our understanding of anomalies in the orbit of Neptune. These anomalies have since been explained since we discovered errors in the calculation of Neptune's mass.

The Kuiper Belt definitely contains planet-like bodies. The Oort Cloud MAY contain planets, or even gas giants, dark dwarf-stars, etc.

The myth that Planet X will make frequent passes near the Earth, despite having an orbit on the far rim of the solar system, is impossible. It's simple physics. The difference in the aphelion (where the Planet is farthest from the sun) and the perihelion (where it is closest) would be unreasonably large.

*Nephilim are not my area of expertise, so I can't say much except that they are an early people described in the Tanakh (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanakh)

and that's all I can say because I'm honestly looking it up in wiki so I might suggest you do the same.

Nibiru – According to archaeological studies, it is the Akkadian name of the planet Jupiter full stop. The myth of Nibiru is not a Mesopotamian myth but a Sitchinian myth. In astronomy, there is not such a thing as a Planet X called ‘Nibiru’. It can’t be Sedna, as astronomy goes it is a transplutonian object.

The Nephilim – Again nothing related to Sumero-babylonian myths. The term relates with Judaism only. See for example:

Nephilim are beings who appear in the Hebrew Bible

Le mot nephilim est souvent rendu par géants


In a nutshell - Sitchinianism lives!

i thought it was the annunaki that came from nibiru.if it is actually there.

compare these:

and these:

also, try this:

From his interpretation of some tablets sumere, Sitchin would have deduced that the ancient people medioriental was often visited by a race coming from a "wandering planet", whose orbit crossed that of our solar system every 3.600 years. The Sumeris called this planet Nibiru and the two races that Nephilim and Annunaki lived you. They would have been really them, according to the mild sumeris, to create the man with a complex intervention of genetic engineering. It now seems, that the forecasts of Sitchin, for a long time convinced that " Nibiru" coop to return, is partially confirmed by the Remote Viewerses.
