I'm pretty sure that this is pure specualtion, rather than any spoilers, as it is based on existing information.

Could River, after her death and 'input' into CAL (the supercomuter / virtual world in Silence in the Library) become the 'Papal Mainframe' and defacto 'power that is' / authority in the Church?

I realise that there is a rather large element of timey-wimey necessary to make it happen but I do think that Moffat is evil enough to make Melody the hero and villain at the same time.

I don't know if the word flow has the double meaning over there that is does here, but I was fairly sure I didn't want to read this post based on it's title

Not sure what the double meaning of the word "flow" is in America

I kinda meant it as in the literal sense of a river flowing, and figuratively in terms of time flow.

It's, um, something that happens to adult women once a month.

Of course

Surfing the crimson tide? (- A little nod to one of my favourite films of all time!)

Her 'time of the month', I'm assuming...

EDIT: dammit! I shouldn't have gloated about beating jonny to the punch in that other thread...

Karma is real, guys!

I thought this same thing regarding River and the Papal Mainframe. I had thought the voice of the mainframe was River's but some people said it wasn't when I posted earlier!

Still, I like your theory!

I assumed the voice we heard was the mainframe and not the PA system but as somebody pointed out earlier - probably not!
