I fail to see why anyone would give any consideration to your words attacking someone else's religion when you can't even answer simple questions about your own.

No one should!

But why should they IGNORE their OWN religion's words???

Can they not ACCEPT them and EMBRACE them?

Why should ANYONE ignore clear teaching of the Bible?

Is the messenger THAT important that the MESSAGE can be dismissed if the recipient of the message does like the way the message is delivered?

Perhaps I should wait for the mailman today (we still have Saturday delivery out here in the boonies) and If I can find some reason to dislike her(him), then I can tell him(her) to return all them BILLS to the sender!

My feelings exactly. But oh the irony.

Is the messenger THAT important that the MESSAGE can be dismissed if the recipient of the message does like the way the message is delivered?

Yes, when the messenger includes his own conclusion as part of the message. Yes, when the messenger keeps repeating the same message you've answered time and time again, but the messenger won't accept your response. Yes, when you already know the message. Yes, Yes, Yes, etc...
