writer with an obsession for nineties football, plans to wait out

the stairwell of their building, Reg and Lineker must brave the
outside in order to save not only the child, but themselves...
500 Years In The Future, Earth Is A Paradise... Without Us. The
Earth was dying, and only the Erta could save it. Created to be
genetically superior, hyper-intelligent and unburdened by the full
range of human emotions, they succeeded by removing the cause:
humans. Now the Erta are faced with a dilemma-if they reintroduce
the rebellious and violent Homo sapiens, all of their work could be
undone. They decide to raise one child: a sole human to decide if
we should again inherit the Earth. But the quiet and clinical Ima
finds that there is more to raising a human than she had expected;
and there is more to humanity's history than she has been told.
An internationally respected Roman Catholic leader on the
mystery-sacrament of marriageMarriage and the family are at the
forefront of the burning questions being debated by civil society
and the church today. Cultural changes in our increasingly
secularized society have dire consequences in the family sphere,
requiring a Christian response that is faithful to the Church's
tradition, says Marc Cardinal Ouellet.In Mystery and Sacrament of
Love Ouellet clearly expounds a theology of marriage and the
Catholic Church's understanding of the sacrament celebrated between
spouses and God. Developed with influences from Pope Francis, the
theological intuitions of Vatican II, the contributions of Saint
John Paul II (the "pope of the family"), and the innovative thought
of Hans Urs von Balthasar, Ouellet's study lays the foundations for
a faithful resurgence of well-being for families in our
contemporary day and age.
