Mary did not give birth to God: she gave birth to "...the man Christ Jesus...". The only way that a man can say that the flesh is God, is because the Word (God) dwelt in the body. The Church is beginning to sound like those who believe in three persons in the Godhead!
Now this: if the flesh is God, then Jesus rose from the dead of his own power. However, Jesus declared, "...I lay down my life , that I may take it again. No man takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father."

You and Jfrog are on two different pages. He isn't advocating worship of Mary. Nor is he advocating flesh is God. Nobody is. This proves you don't really understand what we are saying even after having explained it to you.
