How can you say Mary is not the mother of God incarnate without also denying the divinity of Jesus?

Mary supplied the body, not the divinity...Mary had other children...They had no divinity...

Does scripture describe the birth of any other children that Mary may have had as follows?

“And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.”

Was not the child that “shall be born” fully human and fully divine at the time of His birth? And by conceiving in her womb and bringing forth “that holy thing that shall be called the Son of God,” did Mary not become the mother of this child in His humanity and in His divinity; that is, the mother of God incarnate?

If this is not so, please explain.
