Use of the phrase, to me, seems to deny the scope/extent/degree/nature of their relationship and misleads those attempting to be faithful to them.
Just throwing this out, but the relationship might be more akin to budding, although I concur it is incomplete too, but less misleading than the 'father and son' label.
Additionally, 'Father and son' implies (asserts?) a genetic contribution from Mary. That can't be possible, as the (for lack of a better term) resultant hybrid would definitely NOT be the original, and would be denying the Trinity in it's essential constitution, which we know to be false.
I'm aware of the limitation of words and wordsmithing, but the term "Father and Son" in regards to God and Jesus is so far off the mark that to use it is equivalent of heresy.
There has to be a better way of saying it.
Suffice it to say the father and son concept can only result from some enormously disturbed psychology dredging to the deepest bilge of its psychopathology and exposing to light what is found adhering to the very bottom there.
