The feast is a celebration of Mary's motherhood of [[Jesus]]. The title “Mother of God” is a western derivation from the ({{lang-el|theotokos, the God-bearer}}). The term “[[Theotokos]]” was adopted at the [[Council of Ephesus]] as a way to assert the [[Divinity of Christ]], from which it follows that what is predicated of Christ is predicated of God. So, if Mary is the mother of [[Jesus]], she is the Mother of God. Therefore, the title “Mother of God” and the “Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God”, which celebrates her under this title, are at once Mariological and Christological. |

[[User talk:Geeki]] has suggested adding a link to [http://www.xs4all.nl/~kwanten/fossils.htm] to the [[Ginkgo]] page. While the page isn't advertising in my view it does not contribute something beyond what should be included in the article should it reach a hypothetical [[WP:FA]] status. I'd suggest we see what information can be referenced from this source (or from the sources listed on the page) rather than including it here as a link.

:Agreed. The site in question is an excellent resource. However, its inclusion here would likely trigger addition of other links claiming notability, significantly increasing the workload of those looking after this page in trying to sort out which links are indeed notable and credible resources.[[User:Malljaja|Malljaja]] ([[User talk:Malljaja|talk]]) 02:47, 26 June 2008 (UTC) |

Hello, |
|||
In your opinion readers of this article are not entitled to read more about the subject, view many fossil pictures and get also much more info about Ginkgo than stated in this brief article that is by the way largely based on this same Ginkgo fossil page. |
|||
Also links are not needed in your opinion, so go ahead and remove all links from all articles in Wikipedia... People are not stupid you know. I think this shows the great failure of Wikipedia, undo is not always based on knowledge. [[User:Geeki|Geeki]] ([[User talk:Geeki|talk]]) 09:01, 26 June 2008 (UTC) |

Hello Geeki, I understand your misgivings about the issue of removing this site from the links list. However, as you can tell from the prompt removals of your added link by several editors, the consensus about this is not to include this page as per [[Wikipedia:EL]]. The main reason for this, as stated by [[User:MidgleyDJ|MidgleyDJ]], is that the information contained on this site and relevant to this entry should ideally be integrated into this entry (with proper references, not merely by referring to this site). Please do not regard the actions of other editors that have reversed your changes as merely aimed at antagonizing you, but consider their arguments carefully. Thanks.

Revision as of 02:49, 12 October 2008
The Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God is a feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary, celebrated by the Roman Catholic Church on January 1, the Octave Day of Christmas. In many countries this day is a holy day of obligation.
The feast was celebrated in the east before the west, but by the 5th century it was celebrated in France and Spain on the Sunday before Christmas. In Rome, even before the 7th century, January 1 was used as a celebration of the Maternity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In the 13th century and 14th century, the Feast of the Circumcision of Christ had come to replace the Marian feast on January 1. The celebration of the Feast of the Circumcision on January 1 was expanded to the entire Roman Catholic Church in 1570 when Pope Pius V promulgated the Roman Missal for the entire church. In 1914, the feast of the "Maternity of the Blessed Virgin Mary" was established in Portugal, occurring on October 11. In 1931, this feast was extended to the entire Roman Catholic Church by Pope Pius XI and maintained on October 11. Following the Second Vatican Council in 1974, Pope Paul VI removed the Feast of the Circumcision of Christ from the liturgical calendar, and replaced it with the feast of the "Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God."[1] Traditional Roman Catholics continue to celebrate this feast day with the old name "The Maternity of the Blessed Virgin Mary" on October 11.[2]
The feast is a celebration of Mary's motherhood of Jesus. The title “Mother of God” is a western derivation from the (Greek: theotokos, the God-bearer). The term “Theotokos” was adopted at the Council of Ephesus as a way to assert the Divinity of Christ, from which it follows that what is predicated of Christ is predicated of God. So, if Mary is the mother of Jesus, she is the Mother of God. Therefore, the title “Mother of God” and the “Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God”, which celebrates her under this title, are at once Mariological and Christological.
