I asked a CLEAR question did God the Father have a physical mother?

I believe Mary is the "Mother of God" as she is the physical mother of the second person of the trinity..But you elevate her to a position equal to God the father ..who did not have a mother..You give her godlike qualities..

As that scripture points out ALL that do His will are equal to His mother..you may not like it but Jesus himself carefull outlined our standing in Him..

Then you agree with me (and with two thousand years of orthodox Christian teaching) that Mary is the Mother of God. Thank you for your support.

I give her nothing except her due -- the honor due her as God's mother.

As that scripture points out ALL that do His will are equal to His mother...

You are of course entitled to your unsupported opinion.

...you may not like it but Jesus himself carefull outlined our standing in Him..

Yes, when he told the apostle John to look at the Blessed Virgin and "behold thy mother". Mary is the Mother of God and a spiritual mother to every Christian. "Death through Eve's disobedience; Life through Mary's obedience to God."

Nothing anyone has said can refute the simple facts:

The Blessed Virgin is the Mother of Jesus.
Jesus is God.
Therefore, the Blessed Virgin is the Mother of God.
