“Yes He is, but there are three ‘persons’ that make up God and Mary is only Mother to one of them”

You have just agreed with the catholic position.

“This is like saying I created ‘2’ and ‘4’ only. ‘2’ and ‘4’ are even numbers, therefore I created ‘even numbers’”

No...this isn’t what is being said at all...but it shows that the human mind has great difficulty understanding something that only God can understand.
We cannot fully understand the concept because we are not God and never will be.
You would have to be God to fully understand the concept of Holy Trinity.
We will spend our eternity with God someday, and even then I wonder if we will ever fully understand it.

“Technically, it is not incorrect, but it is misleading.”

once again you agree that “technically” it is correct.
You still have the opinion it is misleading, which of course we catholic disagree with.

But somehow I get the feeling that tomorrow there will be another thread about Mary and there will be a post from you asking the exact same question as if you never received the exact same responses from catholics over this past week.

I am picking at you about this because it is very common for non-catholics to hold onto their misconceptions and bias even after they have been shown to be wrong.

You have a bias that catholics think Mary is mother of the Holy Trinity. You are wrong about this.

Because I have not been shown to be wrong. Just because I granted that it is not technically wrong to say, I still think it is misleading and still think it is best to stick with how the Bible says it, which is far more percise.
