Rather than making it personal yet again, meditate on these two truths. Do not allow antiCatholicism to be a stumbling block.

Which, true to course, is making it personal by inferring i my conclusions are due to bias and not objective reasoning.

Any Christian should be able to freely confess these two truths. Mary is the mother of God (with us).

Your own use of the qualifier (with us) thus clarifying that what is meant is that Mary is the mother of God "manifest in the flesh" (akin to Rm. 9:5), itself testifies to the problem of the unqualified use of "Mother of God.

Jesus is God the Son.

Yet which I do and manifestly did confess, even by providing you with abundant evidence as "affirming Jesus Christ is God the Son in response to the question!" But instead of acknowledging that you basically played inquisitor and required i submit to your demand for a certain statement affirming what i never denied and abundantly evidenced!

Then, in refuting the premise that despite abundant testimony that Jesus is God the Son, yet a specific explicit statement is required, I pointed out to you that even the Holy Spirit

does not provide "the phrase Jesus is God the Son or "God the Son" or even Jesus is God. Thus according to your demand for this explicit statement it must be questionable that the Holy Spirit believes Jesus is God the Son, or even that Jesus is God,"

Yet to which you responded with the snide spitwad conclusion, Thank you for expressing what you believe.

And now you presume your insolence still warrants a reply?! By this and many other past response you have only further relegated yourself to the class of certain other unreason-able RC double-standard devotees who rarely warrant replies except to expose them to the unlearned.

Take a hike.

If you believe Mary is the mother of God (with us) and Jesus is God the Son, then yes, a simple, straightforward reply is warranted. If not, you need not add to your previous reply referring to the Holy Spirit. As I already mentioned, your question pointing to your own blog was inconclusive. It but requires a simple "yes" or "no" to answer. It is not complicated. Continuing to make it personal is unwarranted.
