She isn't credited with ANYTHING other than CONSENTING to God's request. Are you suggesting that the Blessed Mother DID NOT have the option of declining?

How many other human choices SEEM to have been necessary to bring the Lord to the Earth? What if Mary's mom didn't...? What if Mary's dad didn't...? What if Mary's grand parents didn't....?

So by examining these things without regard for God's soverign nature, we are crediting man with something that God had done. God is soverign! Does that phrase ring a bell at all? If that is the case how do we credit man for things that are God's? We do it willfully in an attempt to elevate someone other than God.

I didn’t see an answer to her question in there.
