Ok, now it is my turn.
Isaiah 5:3 And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah,
judge, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyard.
I enjoy the scriptures more than anything. Your turn now. Quote
another scripture.

Well, it looks like a good time for a scripture from Isaiah.
Isaiah 5:7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of
Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasing plant: and he looked for
judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a cry.

What a stupid remark!!!! You know very well, that Aphrodite represents
lust, not love and didn't bother to die for anyone she loved. In fact such a
woman will cause her lovers to fight over her and invariably amble off with
the winner, caring nothing about the vanquished.
Christ laid down His innocent life for us sinners, ...for the love of
us, and BEFORE we were sufficiently perfect to deserve His love.

I guess that's your version of sticking your fingers in your ears and

Ending a conversation by being an obnoxious fool. Your mother must be so

Yes.
It is the same as any belief that is not supported by a scrap of
