You may want to look at this conversation a bit before coming on so strong.

No one here on the thread has denied or questioned the Deity of Jesus Christ. Some have accused others of such because they have asked for scriptural evidence for the title mother of God for Mary. It does not exist and thus the opposing Roman Catholic rebut has been if you deny Mary the title of Mother of God you must also deny the Deity of Jesus Christ which is a fallacious and dishonest assertion.

That is because by denying the supererogatory adulation of Mary and attribution of uniquely Divine attributes, you have denied the manner of goddess-deity ascribed to here.

Of course, according the same zealots, if you deny the Real Presence®, then you are lost, despite what Lumen Gentium says (always open to interpretation):

This was dramatically explained by the Savior when He foretold the Eucharist and told His followers they were to believe in Him to have eternal life. Yes, they would have this life and he saved, provided they accepted the truth of His Real Presence. - http://www.therealpresence.org/archives/Church_Dogma/Church_Dogma_040.htm

Take another look at posts 490, 572, 573, 584, 585, 608

Met mom refused to call Jesus LORD and implied Elizabeth had it wrong " Scripture is clear in calling Mary *the mother of Jesus*. Elizabeth called Mary the mother of the LORD (kurios). The Holy Spirit called Mary, the mother of Jesus. "
Further I could find no confession during her disputations that Jesus is LORD, which He most assuredly is. Do you see the Spirit of God in the posts I referenced ?

Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led. Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord God, and his Spirit, hath sent me. Thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.

Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
