My guess is that he would prefer the term Christotokos. Which does sound better to me, too, even if Theotokos is also correct. He takes offense to being compared to Nestorious. Yet he claims that those who refer to Mary as "holy" are blasphemers. So I guess I am a blasphemer.I understand what you’re getting at, and I agree. We need to understand the term correctly. However, there is a difference between wanting to nuance a term and denying the term altogether. In this case, the former is just theology; the latter is heresy. The gentleman with whom Perg is having this discussion seems to deny altogether that Mary is theotokos. That is heresy.
