Sigh...they might not grasp that the title Mother of God has a always been an important illustration of the union between Jesus’ humanity and divinity.

Yes. I was taught that the title was an acknowledgement of who Jesus was (is). It ensures a correct understanding of the Savior's nature. It is about Him, not her. That being said, I have to believe that Mary was a very special person to play such a unique role in the Plan of Salvation. (I'm not Roman Catholic, by the way).

Why not? It sounds like you’ve caught it.

Personally, I’ve met many Christians who do in fact “get it” when talking about Mary though
