Well I think it kind of is, just in a spiritual way, not in a dogmatic or canonically expressed way.
Oh I didn't notice the word "Beget", I guess thats reserved only for God begetting the son? Is there a reason why it can't be used more broadly, since I thought God being begotten wasn't defined, its just a mystery?
no, the discussion started because it was stated that theosis is required in order to be a bishop. that’s just not true. obviously, every bishop (and the rest of us) should strive for it.
and humans can’t beget the divine nature since it is divine and we are creatures.
