The argument that *Mary is the mother of Jesus and Jesus is God therefore Mary is the mother of God*, leads to the following conclusions using the same (for lack of a better term) *logic*:

If Mary is the mother of God and the Father is God, then Mary is the mother of God the Father.

If Mary is the mother of God and the Holy Spirit is God, then Mary is the mother of God the Holy Spirit.

That puts Mary above the Godhead, makes Mary deity, makes her the mother of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, making them created, finite beings with beginning.

It totally messes up all kinds of theology.

Do Catholics EVER think through what they have been spoon fed for their entire lives, cause it sure doesn't look that way with the arguments they use.

I'll stick with agreeing with the Holy Spirit in what He inspired in Scripture: *Mary, the mother of Jesus*.

That way, I KNOW I can't be wrong.

In Scripture, the Holy Spirit is clear in calling her *mother of Jesus*.

John 2:1 On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.

John 2:3 When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.”

Acts 1:14 All these with one accord were devoting themselves to prayer, together with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.

Ah, yet another Sterling example of people who claim to believe Jesus Christ is who He said He is and that the Bible is inerrant denying what both Christ and the Bible clearly state.

Jesus Christ said He is the King, the Jewish King, who sits on the throne of David. Therefore, His mother is the Queen. It's that simple, Mary is the Queen of Christ's Kingdom. PERIOD.

Anyone who says Mary is a powerless is denying what Scripture says regarding the King, the Queen, and His Kingdom as established by God in the Old Testament.

Have a nice day.

This tops the list of stupid things that you have said. Mary is the Mother of the second person of the trinity in that she gave birth to him. It does not mean that she existed before his divine nature. It meant that she gave birth to the being that was fully God and fully man.

I'll stick with agreeing with the Holy Spirit in what He inspired in Scripture: *Mary, the mother of Jesus*. That way, I KNOW I can't be wrong. In Scripture, the Holy Spirit is clear in calling her *mother of Jesus*.

Try reading the whole Bible

Luke 1:43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
