There are many differences between Confucianism and Taoism. Although they share their place of origin, which is China,<u> Confucianism is based on 5 key relationships</u>, that is to say, according to Confucianism, it is important to set good examples, while<u> Taoism establishes the importance of leading a harmonic life</u>. Moreover,<u> Confucianism spreads the idea that people must be respectful to those who are considered superior, while Taoism believes that humans can have a harmonic life if they are able to connect with Tao</u>. Furthermore, while the founder of Confucianism is Confucius (Kong Qiu), the founder of Taoism is Lao Tzu. However, one of the most important differences between the two traditions is that<u> followers of Confucianism believe in a God, while followers of Taoism do not believe in a personal God</u>: they believe in Tao, which makes reference to "a path".

Also Water Into Wine miracle narrative itself records there were six stone jars full of water present there just to be used in ceremonial washing. That is how much water they had. There is no contemporary record showing that water was scarce. After all, Jerusalem was supposed to be a land flowing with milk and honey.
So doesn't it seem counter-productive to turn water into wine? Wouldn't it actually be more characteristic/benevolent to turn wine into water?
No. Wine was an integral part of Jewish marriage custom at the time. Not providing sufficient wine was an insult to the guests and thereby a shame to the newly wed. Jesus helping them in their need is in fact a "characteristic/benevolent" act.
Was it all just to show off his superpowers and that's seen as more impressive?
Have you read the Gospel narrative? Vast majority of people who attended the wedding including the master of the banquet did not know where the wine came from. So your claim of show off his superpowers doesn't hold good.
