When you make Mary the Mother of God you actually give her precedence above God. I know very little about you and notching about your mother. However, I would bet anything that she came before you. Mother’s always precede their offspring. Mary was mother of the man Jesus. She is not mother of God. Utter blasphemy.

Catholics mean by the title “Mother of God” or “Theotokos” that Mary gave birth to to a child whose fully divine and human nature was united in the person of Jesus Christ. No way do Catholics believe that Jesus’s divine nature came from Mary. I don't know your mother but somehow I believe you honor her as Jesus honors his mother in the spirit of the Commandment, “Honor your Father and Mother”. Jesus came before his mother, he chose her.

“When you make Mary the Mother of God”

God the Father did that through the Holy Spirit, not us.

“you actually give her precedence above God.”

No, you don’t in regard to divinity. Only in one sense did Mary had precedence: She was already human and God wasn’t. Jesus took His flesh from her.

“I know very little about you and notching about your mother. However, I would bet anything that she came before you.”

Was Mary on earth before the Second Person of the Trinity was born as a man in Bethlehem? Clearly the answer is yes. Does that mean Mary is divine? No. Does it mean she has precedence over God in divinity? No.

“Mother’s always precede their offspring. Mary was mother of the man Jesus. She is not mother of God. Utter blasphemy.”

To say Jesus is not God - which is what you just did even if you deny it - it blasphemy. Mary existed before the Second Person of the Trinity took flesh. That is undeniable. Mary did not exist before the Second Person of the Trinity. The Second Person of the Trinity and Jesus are one in the same Person. To deny that Mary gave birth to one who is God is to deny that Jesus is God. And that is blasphemy.
