No, it doesn’t. It only implies Jesus is God.

No it doesn't because if someone had never heard of Jesus, they would not know that *mother of God* meant *mother of Jesus*.

There is simply no way for anyone to deduce that from the term unless they had been indoctrinated by Catholicism.

My word! What are we to do for the person who only hears of the "Trinity" but doesn't know Jesus? Will he assume we worship three-sided geometric shapes?! We must change our religious terminology to appeal to the ignorant before it does more harm!

There is much in Christianity that must be explained (just ask the Ethiopian). That is why we are here... to explain it and carry on Jesus's mission to call all peoples to Himself.
