This study investigates the historical and political conditions which have contributed to the state of the Protestant community in China, and the kinds of spirituality and religious life that it has evolved. The authors draw on extensive fieldwork, and offer fascinating insights into the beliefs and practices of a little-documented section of Chinese society. They show that healing, protection, and vengeance by gods have been deep-rooted elements of Chinese religiosity for several hundred years, notions appropriated by Christians who now emphasize the powers of Jesus. Chinese Protestantism is seen to result from an interesting blend of the old and the new, and comparative material is adduced which sets Protestantism side by side with Catholicism and Buddhism, the two religions in China of comparable scope. A wide range of sources are utilized by the authors, and these lead to one of the most complete and detailed surveys of Christianity in China ever produced.
Curing Chronic Illness (Mental or Physical) the Diet Solution
There's an astonishing gap in the education of our doctors. They are given virtually no instruction in the link between what we eat and chronic illness. Whilst money-spinning drugs are often the chosen mode of treatment, the remarkable truth is that 98% of all drugs do not produce any cure at all! An arthritis sufferer may be prescribed drugs for his condition, and this may give relief for an hour or two, but once they wear off, the arthritis will still be there. There has been no cure. And so it is with virtually all chronic illnesses - temporary relief but no actual cure.But there exists a cure in nature. Every animal in the wild eats its food as nature intended - raw. And chronic illness is virtually unknown in the animal kingdom. Only man cooks his food. And only man suffers from chronic illness. Furthermore, feed wild creatures a cooked diet and they too will become ill, with a return to health once their raw diet is re-established.This book contains overwhelming evidence that just by eating naturally, our long standing health disorders can be overcome. However, you do not need to eat an entirely raw diet to achieve a cure. Just by adding raw juices and foods to your diet can bring about recovery, albeit slower.
Curing Chronic Illness (Mental or Physical) with a Raw or Near-Raw Diet
Drugs do not cure chronic illness. If they did, the condition would never become chronic. An arthritis sufferer may be given medication for his symptoms, and there may be relief for an hour or so, but when the drugs wear off, the arthritis will still be there. There has been NO cure. That same scenario applies to virtually all chronic health disorders.Your well-meaning doctor can only provide the treatment he is trained in at medical school. And that means drugs, drugs, and more drugs. However, it has been shown in many studies over the last 100 or more years that by the simple measure of eating raw foods or juices, fully-blown "incurable" diseases can be cured!This natural-food approach is never taught at medical college, as it would damage the reputation of doctors and decimate the colossal profits of the drug industry. The suppression - indeed, ridicule - of natural food cures is, consequently, widespread in medicine. Heating foods destroys the vital, healing, enzymes, and this is missed by mainstream medicine. Until man discovered fire, he ate his food raw. And far from the myth that primitive man died young and was unhealthy, the exact opposite is true. Every living creature on earth eats it's food raw, except man. And only man suffers from chronic illness of all kinds.Read this book and start to take control of your own particular "incurable" illness.

He may have argued with his wife at her birthday party the night before his death, but when he set off for a business meeting in London the following morning, no one expected him to end up murdered on the moor. How did he get there? The answer comes only after Gently has unravelled one of the most bizarre cases of his entire career

The last thing you need when you're on holiday is to become involved in a murder. For most people, that would easily qualify as the holiday from hell. For George Gently, it is a case of business as usual. The Chief Inspector's quiet Easter break in Norchester is rudely interrupted when a local timber merchant is found dead. His son, with whom he had been seen arguing, immediately becomes the prime suspect, although Gently is far from convinced of his guilt.Norchester City Police gratefully accept Gently's offer to help investigate the murder, but he soon clashes with Inspector Hansom, the officer in charge of the case. Hansom's idea of conclusive evidence appals Gently almost as much as Gently's thorough, detailed, methodical style of investigation exasperates Hansom, who considers the murder to be a straightforward affair.Locking horns with the local law is a distraction Gently can do without when he's on the trail of a killer.
