If Spunkets thinks that the Second Person of the Trinity came into existence at the annunciation to Mary, then Spunkets is either not a Catholic or does not know Catholic doctrine.

I think after this post, that I'd have to number you among the spunkets:

Blogger: Mother of God doesn't really mean one who gave God his beginning.

A-8: Yes it does.

Christ had a beginning through to His human nature, not His divine nature. Mary gave that beginning to Him, by giving Him His human nature.

Spunkets was [apparently] claiming that the Second Person of the Trinity came into existence at the annunciation. The Second Person of the Trinity, however, is eternal. But nevertheless, the Second Person of the Trinity did have a beginning, through His human nature. His human nature is not eternal.
