I think the matter is further complicated by some other titles that Mary has acquired over the years
Co-Redemtrix
Our Mediator
Mother of the Church
Mother of divine grace
Virgin most merciful
Cause of our joy
Gate of heaven
Morning star
Health of the sick,
Refuge of sinners
Queen of angels,
Queen of Heaven,
Queen of patriarchs,
Queen of prophets,
Queen of apostles,
Queen of martyrs,
Queen of confessors,
Queen of virgins,
Queen of all saints,
Queen conceived without original sin,
Queen assumed into heaven,
Queen of the most holy Rosary,
Queen of families
Queen of peace.
Mary is called NONE of these things in Scripture, or are they implied. When you add Mother of God to the equation with all of her other titles, it makes her seem divine.
Dear Blogger,
I'm entirely uninterested in the opinions of non-Catholic/non-Orthodox folks regarding these titles. Inability to understand them properly in context is likely a result of inability or refusal to accept what the Church has infallibly taught:
Mary is the Mother of God.
