Amazing how something as bogus as a scam about the Virgin Mary's apparition in northern Luzon can dupe so many people, when a prophecy by the most unlikely person in earth's history can easily reveal what might happen in our near future. Mother Shipton was a practicing Wiccan, condemened to burn at the stake for her alternative lifestyle, but she left behind a very revealing prophecy about the final fate of mankind. Most of her previous prophecies about historical events to come were proven accurate.
