Cuesta creer que existe el amor, si no pregúnteselo a cualquier amante. Cuesta creer que existe la vida, si no pregúnteselo a cualquier científico. Cuesta creer que existe Dios, si no pregúnteselo a c...
Christianity is a religion in a rush. Look at the world created in seven says. Even on a symbolic lovel, that's creation in frenzy.
