"Seven Words of Jesus and Mary: Lessons from Cana and Calvary"
If you think even for a moment, how much valuable resources and precious time

come up instead.

The biggest scourges of human life are fear, false hopes and dependency.
Thanks to the so-called religious hypocrisies, you do not get anything else but
these three.
