I guess in any context. I mean when is Jesus NOT the Son of Mary?

(I feel like a drug pusher. Aw, c’mon, how could ONE little Ave hurt? Try it ...)

1. PRIOR to HIS earthly birth.

2. IF said period is encapsulated and lain aside in some multiverse construction on reality—whenever such Timelessness of God decreed it.

3. Y’all seem stubbornly determined to build an eternal major MARIAN EDIFICE on that temporary fact.

4. I say temporary because I do not think we time-bound finite creatures can have a definitive, omniscient, all inclusive view of such a thing given that our only frame of reference is within said linear time constraints.

5. We seem incapable of construing reality OTHER THAN as linear time with a ‘once a mother, always a mother’ mentality.

6. What if MOTHERHOOD like MARRIAGE is just not any part of our eternal reality or abode?

7. What an embarrassingly huge edifice of blasphemous idolatry to then have to toss in the garbage.

I wasn't being cryptic. Many verses in Scripture speak about Jesus' mother, Mary, i.e., John 2:12 "After this he went down to Capernaum with his mother and brothers and his disciples. There they stayed for a few days." So in that context he is called the son of Mary. He is also called the Son of God. My point was that Mary is the mother of Jesus but it does not mean, to me, that she is the Mother of God. How about we agree that it is a "mystery" that Mary can be the Mother of the Incarnate Word, Jesus Christ, but not the Mother of God?
