"The title "Mother of God" comes from a time in Christian history when there was a debate over whether Jesus was two distinct persons in one body, or whether He was one person with two natures."

Implicit in the term "Mother of GOD" is that Mary was the creator of GOD and as such has special status.
Not at all. That would also imply that Mary is HIGHER than God, and obviously she is not. She is a creature, but one immaculate.
