That's pure, unadulterated silliness

Pure and unadultereted silliness is denying that Mary carried and gave birth to God the Word.

Your semantic acrobatics deny Jesus' divinity. That's all.

Horse-pucky.

The one doing self-serving, semantic gymnastics are those who pretend that a person being specific is a person who doesn't understand the Trinity.

Quit the "gotcha" crap, and grow up.

That is not what you are saying. You are not limiting the birth to the second person of the Trinity, you are saying that Mary is the "Mother of God" with not qualification. Mary did not pre-exist Christ. She gave birth the the human incarnate Christ, the second person of the Trinity. To say, without qualification that Mary is the "Mother of God" is to imply that she pre-existed the Trinity, that she is the Mother of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost, which is the one God. She gave birth to the Son, and then only in a human sense.

So quit your silly games. xzins is not denying Jesus divinity. That is a false accustion and you should know it. If you don't know it then it is an ignorant and idiodtic accusation. Take your pick.
