Instead of "Mother of God" one could make the same point by saying "The-woman-who-links-God-to-the-human-race-through-the-Incarnation-which-took-place-via-her-motherhood." But "Mother of God" is shorter and simpler.

And *mother of Jesus* is more accurate and lines up with how the Holy Spirit inspired Scripture.

Good morning, good metmom!

Uh. How about, can you say "SHE's the mother of my Lord"?

And after a suitable couple of seconds can you permit yourself to add, "And HE's God"?

"The-woman-who-links-God-to-the-human-race-through-the-Incarnation-which-took-place-via-her-motherhood."

Can I slip this into my list of Mary TITLES?
