Book Description
“All Souls is the written equivalent of an Irish wake, where revelers dance and sing the dead person’s praises. In that same style, the book leavens tragedy with dashes of humor but preserves the heartbreaking details.”—The New York Times Book Review A 25th anniversary edition of the National Bestselling memoir, with a new afterword from Michael Patrick MacDonald, takes us deep into the South Boston housing projects during one of the city's most tumultuous times in history and tells the story of his family struggling the overcome the poverty, crime, addiction, and incarceration that overtook the neighborhood. A breakaway bestseller since its first printing, All Souls takes us deep into Michael Patrick MacDonald’s Southie, the proudly insular neighborhood with the highest concentration of white poverty in America. Rocked by Whitey Bulger’s crime schemes and busing riots, MacDonald’s Southie is populated by sharply hewn characters. We meet Ma, Michael’s mini-skirted, accordian-playing, single mother who endures the deaths of four of her eleven children. And there are Michael’s older siblings Davey, sweet artist-dreamer; Kevin, child genius of scam; and Frankie, Golden Gloves boxer and neighborhood hero whose lives are high-wire acts played out in a world of poverty and pride. Nearly suffocated by his grief and his community’s code of silence, MacDonald tells his family story here with gritty but moving honesty. All Souls is heartbreaking testimony to lives lost too early, and the story of how a place so filled with pain could still be “the best place in the world.”

The same fortunate Ryan Lochte finds a way thru the consequences following like he can. He consumes LSD which was prescribed for him for recovery from psychological, mental and physical pain he chose to go thru. The drug makes him realize his true identity, together with self-realization and self-actualization. The aliens are only bloodless bodies, 100 aliens travel to Earth and contact Military of USA where Officer Nick and Rose communicate with them and later these reveal that the bodies ‘evaporated’ like only acid was left from the 100 alien bodies, acid which we need to recreate the Earth. The one who had been communicating with the Military said that his own human clone was born already, and that he’s Ryan Lochte, US Olympic swimmer. He left two documents for him before his body evaporated, Info and Mannual. Upon having this knowledge Ryan would become Lord Shiva, the destroyer God. These 100 were clones of the same one God – Lord Shiva. On his planet, which can be called ‘Mirror World’, they had cloning on high. In the beginning, a woman clone of the same God was created, and was killed – she was Rose. The God studied the genes for 5,000 years and then destroyed the planet, together with thousands of trillions of clones on the planet. In Hell, these were punished by giant biological machines, with which the God created souls of girls, these were clone children of Rose. Meanwhile, Rose was working together with the Military of USA, who are planning to end the Earth, to recreate Earth.

Then onwards, once she gets to find her tattoos which represent Ryan Lochte and her son with him, Neero, she would forgive everyone, being a religious one, someone who’s been touched by Christ. The belief part, is her conscience, and Humanity and Mankind would continue with her existence among many men, we, who survived the salvation and recreated the Earth for betterment of life. The purpose was met because she is a fertile woman. The Military builds Green Giant – The Ship, which can be operated using two software, 1, Lady Machine and 2, Man Machine.

There’re going to be 8 more twins born with her eggs and her lovers’ sperms, and each of these twins, one is a girl and the other is a boy, they are lovers among them two. During 2020, Neero was born, and in the umbilical cord there were Human Roe, together with stemcells, which were derived in a way that one hundred thousand clone girl children can be born, who had Double Helix Ring DNA.

She consumes the DMT from her brother’s brain, who, according to the theory she wrote, is Satan himself, the DMT makes her colors of eyes, skin and hair change to blue, white and maroon successively. The quest is just the beginning – she left her parents’ home where her brother was living, too. Together with Lucky, she found a better way to live life, while her child Sara was born thru her with normal delivery. Later she asked Tiger to help her get rid of the knowledge which has been bothering her thru out the years, the fact that she can kill using only her brain, and would, if she has to – in order to protect her family and child.

Book Description
The Reformation transformed English religion. For many, the spirituality of the preceding period remains largely unknown, or overburdened with Protestant mythology of decadence. These sources seek to explore the nature of religious belief and practice in pre-Reformation England, using original source material to make the debates accessible. This consideration of the sources begins with an analytical chapter discussing the varieties of spirituality in later medieval England and the ways in which they received expression, through participation in church services, actions like pilgrimages, charitable foundations, devotional readings and instruction. Opposition to prevailing spirituality, expressed through 'Lollardy', is also considered. The sources demonstrate with immediacy and potency these diverse expressions of faith and observance. Many of the documents are translated for the first time from unpublished manuscript material. This study demonstrates the vitality of the pre-Reformation religious practices, but also addresses the key methodological questions which arise from the sources about the nature of the material; its reliability as historical evidence, and the validity of external actions as testimony to intellectual and emotional experience.
