Mary, as "MOTHER of God" and as the term is used, implies she was sinless,
To me it's a separate point and when I use the word "mother" it doesn't carry with it "sinless" only "mother." But I finally see that you do and therefore the term offends.
So it is the Catholic teaching rather than the actual word that you object to. I would wonder then why you would object to the word if it were used by a church not teaching the parts you object to. Or would this be ok?
The rest of the theology is really not my interest here. It's the Incarnation and the important and simple fact that Jesus had a mother.
How about "mother of our Lord"? You are ok with this, yes? It's solely the theological baggage you see with "mother of God." that's the problem, right?
thanks for your reply.
