Just to clarify:

The laws of logic are exactly the same, absolutely regardless of the subject matter.

IOW: The laws of logic in a syllogism about Mary and Sam are exactly the same as for a syllogism about Mary and Jesus.

Any attempt to pretend otherwise is a retreat into absolute, gibbering irrationality.

It all comes down to basic logic after all.

Just to clarify...this syllogism you are using falls apart simply because Jesus is not ALL OF GOD (meaning that he is the second person of the triune Godhead). Using your logic it would be like saying:

Mary is the mother of Sam. Sam is a fireman. Therefore, Mary is the mother of firemen. Get it?
