What is the difference between “birthed” and “mother?”
You probably don’t realize this, but the Church at the Council of Ephesus in 431 A.D. declared Mary to be “Theotokos,” the “God-bearer” or “Mother of God.” This was to clarify that Jesus was the Second Person of the Trinity (God), and not just a human man, which was a heresy (Nestorianism) at the time. The doctrine had its origins in defining the nature of Jesus.
You “probably” don’t know what I do and don’t know.
I believe Jesus could have been a “test tube baby” or actually share Mary’s DNA. Since we have not the DNA evidence, it is pointless to argue unless there is spiritual meaning in the answer. And even then, the proofs used to support one side or the other are what should be disected.
Matthew clearly says to Joseph, “the child conceived in her”. I guess we could argue what “conceived” meant there. But suffice it to say the bible says Jesus was fully God AND fully man. We can argue that till His return and never resolve it. The important thing is that BOTh family lines have the same impact on him as leaven in bread.
Mary is to be revered as ANY person in the bible that was on “Gods side”. No more. No less.
