After seven months here there are still people who won't put 2 and 2 together to call Mary theotokos because of what they think it means, instead of what it actually means. Despite repeated clarifications.

Why is it so important to you that we affirm, like you, that Mary is the "mother of God"? Is it the password for some secret sect? Why must she be the subject of every sentence? Why is it not enough for you or the R catholic church for us to say JESUS is GOD? The way some venerate her, it reminds me of that goddess, Isis.

OK, here is my proposed language which both sides should be able to agree on:

"Jesus, the son of Mary, is God".
