Hers is the dark and hidden voice of the Queen of Heaven, now reconciled to her soul mate, who is both Adam and the Mashiach (Messiah).

This book intends to dismantle the fictitious Mary made in the image of religion. Rather, the human Mary of the Scriptures who gave God a body is the subject of this...
