(whether you agree or disagree would seem to be of little consequence, whether you have peace in your heart or malice toward your fellow man may be of the utmost urgency) AS FOLLOWS:
Question 1): Is The Blessed Virgin Mary the mother or in earthly terms the female parent or “co-creator” of God the Father? …
Answer 1): Please don’t talk stupid ...

Q.) Was Jesus fully God and in perfect and complete union with THE FATHER and THE HOLY SPIRIT prior to taking on human form? ( His own “Incarnation” )
Answer: YES
Q.) Was He fully God during his time in his mothers womb?
Answer: YES
Q.) Was He fully God throughout His earthly life and priesthood?
Answer: YES
Q.) Is He even now fully God while in His Glorified human state?
Answer: YES
Q.) Will He be fully God when he returns again to judge?
Answer: YES
Q.) How often in the inspired writings of the Bible did He Himself or others refer to Him as “Son of God and or Son of Man” not separating the two but stating that he is both?
Answer: Not sure .. A quite a few, or at least enough. (and will try to get some figures on that someday)
Q.) Did Jesus ( as the second person of the Triune God ), at all times, have this hypostatic union with The Father and The Spirit within His person? ( and within, what for lack of a better “earthly” understanding, we will call His DNA ) and did that “DNA” commingle with the DNA of Mary the Blessed Virgin? …(this is a reference to the Over Shadowing of the Holy Spirit at which time she conceived a Son and He shall be the “Son of God”).
A.) YES
Q.) Could she (Mary) somehow be less then the mother of the complete Being?
Answer: How could we possibly say she is less then the mother of the Complete Being? …Any more then we are each a product of our parents and they theirs ..Or can our Mothers say (or anyone tell them) that we are a product of only our Fathers side of the family and she is not the mother of each child, the entire person…
Even more simply put, one can think of it as, “They are Family” in every earthly sense of the word and, me thinks, a lot of heavenly senses that we will only understand if and when we get there.
Justification thought: Any other “type of arrangement” of incarnating Himself in a different fashion then we were all created would invalidate our Gods own words in Genesis that we are “all created” in their triune image and likeness. Other then the fact that we were created and He already existed and only needed to incarnate. Any other “type of arrangement” of incarnating Himself would have given Jesus (God yet Son of Man) and (Man yet Son of God) an advantage over all of us in the area of “temptation” (to site one obvious area).. and probably other areas of human life as well … an advantage that we all know HE the MAN didn’t take and He THE ALL POWERFUL because of LOVE, GOD, in no way needed to or could.
In other words we are all created with our greatest good being spiritual, although we each start out more physical, and are beckoned to spiritual perfection and thereby eternal bliss. Our Savior already existed in eternal bliss and as an example, for our sake, did the reverse. Then carried it to the next step in returning to His Former Home taking with Him, His Glorified Temple of the Holy Spirit. and now awaits us each to do the same.
Me thinks it is safe to say the The Blessed Virgin is the only human of all time that could and did give Our Triune God something that He did not have. This was something He already OWNED and had given it to Her. Although without Her selflessly returning it as well as adding to it Her own Actual Graces (given to Her by the Same God) HE could not offer all of mankind HIMSELF in the fashion he sees fit to do.
He didn’t TAKE it from Her .. He asked …. She didn’t BEG for the Honor .. She readily accepted the offer … She was NOT naive… Or He would have been taking advantage….There was NO “Bargaining”….THEY were AND ARE IN LOVE…..where bargaining has no place…..
Mary gave God the Gift of Human Life, and not to demean this Gift by attaching an advertising slogan, but if one is looking for the Gift that Keeps on Giving .. this is IT.
So if there has ever been (or is) a question in your mind as to whether or not Mary THE BLESSED VIRGIN has a special place with THE TRIUNE GOD (whom we have all come to know CANNOT BE OUT GIVEN)…..ponder on what has been said here … and take your decision to the heart… one way or another…
This line of thinking is a part of what allows Mary mother of Jesus the title of being Earthly Mother of God and mother to that portion of God the Father and God the Holy Spirit which is or was also within the “DNA” (so to speak) of GOD the Son….( no one is saying anything more).
Why do we have such a hard time reenacting the honor that the Triune God has already given to Mary the Blessed Virgin. When all we have to offer is words and some feeble works? Why can’t we just humble ourselves spiritually in the presence of the most magnificent woman that ever lived… (read this link and the Holy Spirit via John may give you some insight)… And we may all come to realize that it was GOD HIMSELF that GAVE HIMSELF to her that she would become his Mother, for mankind, and fulfill the prophecy that “All Generations will call Me Blessed”.
Additional Question #1: This line of thinking certainly leaves open to the pondering of: Do we all have “DNA” when, we will be within, our glorified resurrected bodies?
Answer #1: It can be easily reckoned that, that one we will just have to leave up to the One or Three that already know the answer…
All of these things can not be fully realized until that day we are no longer bound by time and probably not even DNA (as we know it)…So for now we must take some of these things (or some portions of these things) on faith alone as He has already done so much that we might understand. For it is from our Faith that springs forth Hope and from these two is born Love …. and realize that in all of time and the universe our personal love is the only thing HE does NOT already OWN.
WARNING …(Pondered on to additional depths of human reason: This thought process may flip-flop a time schedule in your mind, but remember, The Triune God has never been held under that schedule with the exception of 30+ years that One of the Members of the Holy Trinity allowed Himself, for our benefit, to be held as such. )This old man is a “homespun” theologian and my best suggestion is:1) Trust in Jesus to be your Personal Savior….2) Pray for the Guidance of His Holy Spirit in all you do. (Read, Recite and Meditate on the The Words within The Holy Bible)..3) Carry out the inklings He Gives you. Starting with no malice toward others and if possible with His Love… and continue in that Guided Spirit until which time He decides you are ready for the transformation from this Life of “Time” to your LIFE OF ETERNITY. (for with HIM all things ARE POSSIBLE)
