581.0. "Mother Who?" by DECWET::MITCHELL (CRTs: Live long and phosphor!) Wed Nov 25 1987 21:33

I remember reading a prophecy by a person called Mother (Something).  (No
jokes please).  I think she was a nun who lived a couple hundred years ago.
One of her prophesies for "the last days" was:

    "Thoughts around the world shall fly 
    In the twinkling of an eye." 

Of course, that is now true with global communication (including NOTES!).
But Mother X wasn't right about everything; she predicted the world would
end in 1985, I believe.


Anybody remember who I am talking about?

	Re .1 (MWR): >Mother Shipton's prophecy > > "And this world to an end shall come > in nineteen-hundred and eighty-one." was once " ... in eighteen-hundred and eighty-one." When that didn't come to pass, it was "edited" a hundred years ahead. Steve Kallis, Jr.
