You are inferring then that Mary was raped by God, because the Gospel according to the Bard says that she had no choice in the matter.
The words you left out are the most important.
Be it done unto to me according to Thy Word.
At that very point Mary became the co-Creator of the Son. I'd be a little concerned if I were you to be talking about Somebody's mother that way.

I would be more worried talking about the Lord of Lords as you just have! You words are intended to be outragous and are an offense to God!
Mary was acknowledging something you seem not to understand,the Sovereignity of God.God had selected her.He didnt ask for her "permission" ,the word is submission..she submitted to the will and plan of God. She was overcome by His grace,"no" was never an option for her..any more than it is for any man or woman that has been drawn by the grace of God.
He knew what her answer would be.

As for Mary being the "co creator"...go ask Jesus what that means

Matthew 12
47 Someone said to Him, ""Behold, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside seeking to speak to You.''
48 But Jesus answered the one who was telling Him and said, ""Who is My mother and who are My brothers?''
49 And stretching out His hand toward His disciples, He said, ""Behold My mother and My brothers!

Those who hear and obey are His mother and brothers and sisters..

Your answers are the very reason why I usually don't open the Catholic threads.
I do not find this mode of operation the least bit instructive.
