“I think the difficulty comes in if someone mistakenly thinks this means that these people were somehow “creators” of God. This is nonsense. God is the creator of everything and everyone, including of His own Mother Mary and all of His ancestors through Mary.”

Nor Mary. But consistency demands that if you choose to call Mary the Mother of God, you must follow through.

Of course, none of it is true. Mary is most favored, but the rest of the extra-Biblical nonsense becomes silly.

But I'm agreeing with you on Mary being the Mother of God,and the implication being that if she had siblings, they were His uncles and aunts, and so forth; and her parents being His grand parents, and her ancestors being His ancestors: it's all there in the genealogies!

She gave birth to Jesus, our God. Birth mother, you know? Also genetic mother, lactational mother, social/caregiving mother, and all that. But she did not create Him. Exactly the reverse: He created her, and all things.

I'm not seeing how you could disagree with that.
