Au contraire: my point was that whether or not MONOGENHS implies begetting
or birthing, hUIOS most certainly does. So the key question is not the
literal meaning of either term but the theological interpretation of that
literal language, which becomes off-topic for this list almost as quickly as
the previous poster's unhappy judgment. Another lap around the ambiguities
of the GEN / GENN stems can't answer the first poster's question.
