In a post criticizing James Cameron‘s claim to have found Christ’s tomb, viagra canada viagra Milwaukee blogger and radio personality, sales James Harris wrote:
“Upon reading Cameron‚Äôs tripe I immediately thought of Rob Bell and his book Velvet Elvis. Bell asks the question: ‚ÄúWhat if the life of Christ turned out to be a hoax; would it ruin your faith?‚Äù
It‚Äôs a good question to ponder, recipe but someone telling me Jesus is a hoax is like someone telling me that my mom isn’t real. It‚Äôs more than a little difficult to take seriously.”
At the risk of incurring the wrath of James Harris, a man I have great respect for, I need to point out that every day people discover that the women they think of as their mothers aren’t their “real” moms.
In fact, I think religions are adopted by believers in much the same way that women adopt children. Some people adopt Christianity, some Islam, some Hinduism, some Wicca. But the fact that they adopt a particular religion makes it no more the “truth” than a woman adopting a child makes her that child’s creator.
(Please don’t leave a comment telling me that adopted moms are just as real as birth mothers. Yes, moms who adopt are worthy of all the same respect accorded a birth mother, but they are not a child’s “real” mother in the same sense as the woman who conceived them. Also, this post should not be construed as implying that James Harris was adopted. Although, I’m sure plenty of people would have been happy to do so. He’s as cute as the dickens.)

My friend James T. Harris related this story to me when he got back from Arizona.
It happened when he was shopping for shoes in Tuscon.
The owner of the store was helping fit James for a new pair of boots when the man’s shirt rode up revealing a holstered pistol.
James asked, viagra sale there “What’s that?”
The man patted the gun and said, “That’s freedom.”

It looks like I got one final taker for my offer to post about any blogger who posted about From Where I Sit: James T. Harris at The National Conversation.
James T. is best known nationally for asking John McCain to “take it to Barack Obama” during the election.
But I know James as a funny, cialis canada nurse caring, cialis sales pilule and charismatic man who is a pleasure to talk with and a privilege to call friend.
As a radio talk show host on WTMJ and a regular on national television, sales James doesn’t need my link to his blog, but I’m happy to give him one anyway.

NPR’s Morning Edition featured a discussion among people of various races this morning about how race is influencing the election.
And lots of other people want to talk about how sex is influencing it.
But what really divides people in America is not race or gender, buy viagra troche it’s ideology.
It’s what we believe that makes us allies or enemies.
I’m much closer to a black Conservative like James T. Harris than I ever could be to a white liberal like Michael Moore.
James’ color is irrelevant to me, buy it’s his philosophies that I identify with.
If you don’t believe that ideology is more powerful than race or sex, medicine just look at the attacks on Sarah Palin (a feminist role model if there ever was one) by liberal women.
Or check out what African-American progressives say about one of the most accomplished black men in America: Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
In the end, which side of the political divide you inhabit in this country is less about what body you were born in, than what body of thought you believe in.
And isn’t that they way it should be?

In case you missed it, cialis purchase two Wisconsin bloggers had articles in today’s Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
James T. Harris had an article about being a dad reprinted from his blog.
And Rick Esenberg wrote an editorial about Barack Obama.
I’d just like to ask the Main Stream Media to keep their grubby paws off our best and brightest. Soon, stuff the only bloggers still “just” blogging will be those that are anonymous or use fictional pseudonyms!

…with the lovely James T. Harris, cialis sale search I think I spotted the even lovelier Phelony Jones.

Luckily for me, James T. is a brunette. (Sort of.)

Which of these books, if any, do you own?

I’m at the Citizen’s Blogging Summit at WTMJ.
(This isn’t “live” blogging, viagra sale stuff because I’m not trying to capture everything that’s going on. I’m just keeping myself (and maybe one or two of you) entertained.)
1.) I’ve never been to WTMJ before.
You should know that the WTMJ lobby is crowned by a 360 degree relief created by JE Greer that’s just chockfull of nipples. I mean this guy never saw a nipple he didn’t like. The topless chicks have nipples, troche the peasent chicks have pointy nipples. Thank God, prescription at least the nuns don’t have pointed nipples. Though they might have been monks. It’s hard to tell.
2.) What the hell is up with “blogging summits” being held in places that DON’T have wireless internet connections.
On the other hand, they were nice enough to provide ethernet connections for a few of us…thus this post.
3.) I had to wait in the lobby watching a soap opera on NBC. Why would you submit someone to that?
4.) A nice touch, the name tags all have our blog names on them.
5.) The politics panel – I always think political blogging conversations miss the point. Blogs aren’t really having a huge impact on the way people do politics…blogging’s real influence is the way it’s changing MEDIA. The traditional media was always able to set the agenda and winnow the messages that reached the public. Now blogs can force attention on an issue, candidate, or event in a way that never happened before.
6.) The Beyond Politics panel – My only observation so far is that it’s no surprise that anyone who champions adults acting like kids don’t seem to have kids themselves. People with kids know that someone in the house has to be an adult. It’s a lesson the Baby Boomers never seemed to have learned and their children don’t seem to be picking up on it too quick, either. Sigh.
7.) On longevity – With all due respect to Sean (the organizer of this summit), I find it funny that anyone would think it matters how long someone has been writing a blog. Blogging isn’t a union gig. Seniority doesn’t matter. Blogging is the ultimate meritocracy.
8.) At the beginning of this post, I said I’ve never been here before…but I have. Years ago, I was dating a beautiful girl who did the weekly adopt-an-animal spot on the morning TV news. In fact, she did it in the studio I’m sitting in now. Small, small, world.
9.) Two of my favorite bloggers, James T. Kirk…I mean Harris of The National Conversation and Owen Robinson of Boots and Sabers are now up. If you ever get a chance to have a beer with either of these guys, do it. They’re both funny, bright, and insightful. They also look a lot alike…if you can get past the fact that one of the guys is a white guy from Texas and the other is an African-American from Sherman Park.
