His deep knowledge of theology and comparative religious culture, social psychology and powers of horizontal thinking would make Charles Cameron a welcome addition to any blog, magazine, editorial staff or\u00a0university faculty. I am extremely pleased to have him here as an author\u00a0because the insights that Charles can bring to bear on contemporary issues will extend the analytical reach and audience of <strong>Zenpundit<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0His body of work here simply\u00a0<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/zenpundit.com\/?cat=526\">speaks for itself<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d like to thank <strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/committeeofpublicsafety.wordpress.com\/\">Joseph Fouche<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.scholars-stage.blogspot.com\/\">T.

Also, <strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/chicagoboyz.net\/\">Lexington Green<\/a><\/strong>, who years earlier encouraged me to bring the period of solo blogging to an end and who cordially invited me to break bread at his home with Charles.
